Virginia Woolf


While men were creating, thinking, learning, writing, reading we were cooking, washing, raising children, and sending them to the world. Women were in darkness for many centuries. Thanks to the women who started feminist movement, they achieved a lot of things and the reading of this kind of text is moving, I feel proud of this kind of woman who was very objective at the moment of evaluate women writers of those times. The 20th century was complicated for women and to be a women writer was more difficult. There were many obstacles, society wasn’t prepared but finally at the present time we can see the changes. However, gender discrimination still exits but we are in the right way.

Virginia Woolf is one of the greatest women writers also Jane Austen, they are fundamental in the women readings because helps us to understand the path that the feminist movement did.
