Synopsis "Una Habitación Propia / A Room of One's Own (in Spanish)"

Edición en tapa dura del ensayo que se ha convertido en un icono de la literatura modernista y del feminismo, con una nueva y cuidada traducción. Texto señero del feminismo del siglo XX, basado en dos conferencias impartidas por Virginia Woolf en la universidad de Cambridge, Una habitación propia indaga con singular ironía y talento narrativo en los graves efectos que tuvo la discriminación sexual en la creatividad de las mujeres, al tiempo que propone un camino liberador a través de la independencia económica. En esta nueva edición, la espléndida traducción de Ana Mata Buil, basada en los originales más fiables, presta especial atención a las cuestiones de género. Además, se incluye como apéndice el artículo «Las mujeres y la novela , en el que Woolf publicó por primera vez los postulados centrales de su famoso libro. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A Room of One's Own is an essay written by Virginia Woolf. It was published in 1929 and is based on two lectures given by the author in 1928 at two colleges for women at Cambridge. In this famous essay, Woolf addressed the status of women, and women artists in particular. In this essay, the author also asserts that a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write. According to Woolf, women's creativity has been curtailed due to centuries of prejudice and financial and educational disadvantages. To emphasize her view, she offers the example of an imaginary gifted but uneducated sister of William Shakespeare, who, discouraged from all eventually kills herself. This imaginary woman never writes a word and dies by her own hand, her genius unexpressed. If only she had found the means to create, argues Woolf, she would have reached the same heights as her immortal sibling. Woolf celebrates the work of women who have overcome that tradition and become writers, including Jane Austen, George Eliot, and the Brontë sisters, Anne, Charlotte, and Emily. In the final section Woolf suggests that great minds are neutral and argues that intellectual freedom requires financial freedom.

Virginia Woolf was born in London on January 25, 1882, and died on March 28, 1941, drowned in the River Ouse. After her father's death, the well-known man of letters Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia and her sister Vanessa left the elegant Kensington neighborhood and moved to the bohemian Bloomsbury, which named the brilliant literary group formed around the Stephen sisters. Among its members were T. S. Eliot, Bertrand Russell, Vita Sackville-West, and the writer Leonard Woolf, whom Virginia married and with whom she ran the prestigious Hogarth Press. From her early works, Virginia Woolf highlighted her intention to take novels beyond mere narration. In Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), the author expressed the inner feelings of the characters with her own techniques, achieving great psychological effects through images, metaphors, and symbols. Her technique was consolidated with Orlando (1931) and The Waves (1931), which secured her an indisputable place within the finest world literature. Additionally, Woolf wrote essays as famous as A Room of One's Own (1929), which still inspires new generations of women today, literary criticism articles like those compiled in The Common Reader (1925, 1932) and in Genius and Ink (2021), or the biography of the English poet Elizabeth Barrett's dog, Flush (1933). All these works are published by Lumen.

Cuidada edición con guardas en color morado. Al inicio incluye una breve biografía de Virginia Woolf y notas sobre el texto por parte de los editores. La traducción es actual, entendible y cuenta con varios pie de página. Al final se incluyen notas a la traducción y el artículo "Las mujeres y la novela" de la misma autora. Las hojas son gruesas, los márgenes y el interlineado son buenos y la letra es mediana, lo que proporcionan una lectura cómoda. El libro es pasta dura y viene con una cinta marcapáginas. El libro llegó en perfecto estado.
