Virginia Woolf

Born
A Room of One's Own (1929) is the famous one, arguing that women's creative achievement depended on money and space of their own. The more political book is Three Guineas (1938), which links the exclusion of women from universities and professions to militarism and fascism, and refuses to join men's institutions on men's terms: "as a woman, I have no country". Set it beside Friedan or Okin to see the old split between joining institutions and refusing them.
