ESSAY ON: Woolf's "A Room Of One's Own" - Isolation And Androgyny

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: 3 pages in length. The extent to which isolation is such a critical component to the development and maintenance of an androgynous mind in Woolf's A Room of One's Own is both grand and far-reaching; that society's gender encoding wholly precludes Orlando's ability to attain mental androgyny speaks to the constant – if not invisible – undercurrent of judgment and forced conformation people experience when they go against conventional sex roles. Woolf illustrates how society compels men to be men and women to be women; for androgyny to exist beyond these stringent stipulations, it can only do so in the only place where such social dictate ceases to exist: in isolation. No bibliography.
