In 1928 Virginia Woolf was asked to deliver speeches at Newnham and Girton Colleges on 'Women and Fiction'; she spoke about her conviction that 'a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction'.

In October 1928 Virginia Woolf was asked to deliver speeches at Newnham and Girton Colleges on the subject of ''Women and Fiction''; she spoke about her conviction that ''a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction''. The following year, the two speeches were published as A Room of One''s Own, and became one of the foremost feminist texts.Knitted into a polished argument are several threads of great importance – women and learning, writing and poverty – which helped to establish much of feminist thought on the importance of education and money for women''s independence. In the same breath, Woolf brushes aside critics and sends out a call for solidarity and independence – a call which sent ripples well into the next century.
