Poetry depends on intellectual freedom. And women have always been poor...'\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these two classic essays of feminist literature, Woolf argues passionately for women's intellectual freedom and their role in challenging the drive towards fascism and conflict. In\u003cem\u003e A Room of One's Own\u003c\/em\u003e she explores centuries of limitations placed on women, as well as celebrating the creative achievements of the women writers who overcame these obstacles. In this first history of women's writing, she describes the importance of education, financial independence, and equality of opportunity to creative freedom. \u003cem\u003eThree Guineas\u003c\/em\u003e was written under the threat of fascism and impending war. A radical articulation of Woolf's pacifist politics, it investigates the causes of gender inequalities and the ways in which women's historic outsider position make them crucial in the prevention of war. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth these works started life as talks to groups of young women, and their engaging wit and informality establish Woolf as one of the twentieth-century's greatest essayists. Their arguments continue to reverberate in feminist discourse to this day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.
