Publicación Ensayar lo íntimo : la revolución escritural de Virginia Woolf(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Acevedo Henao , Sofía; Cardona Zuluaga, Alba PatriciaThis paper presents a bibliographic review of Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own (1929), Three Guineas (1938), and the novel The Waves (1931), with the aim of analyzing aspects of her writing and its influence on the literary essay. Based on secondary sources such as Chikiar (2013) and Bloom (2018), the study recognizes the literary value and transformative potential of her work, exploring the essay as a tool for thought, writing, and resistance. The research is structured around a theoretical framework on the literary essay and women's writing, and examines three axes: recurring themes, rhetorical strategies, and theoretical contributions. Among the themes, the influence of material conditions on women's intellectual creation, the construction of a female literary tradition, the critique of patriarchal structures, and the defense of creative freedom through the androgynous mind stand out. On a rhetorical level, Woolf uses personal narrative, irony, humor, rhetorical questions, and the use of metaphors and symbolic images, as well as intertextual quotations that engage in dialogue with the canon. Her theoretical contributions include a feminist reflection on space and economics in creation, the problematization of the canon from a gender perspective, and the consolidation of the essay as a form of intellectual resistance. The study concludes that Woolf's work has had a decisive influence on literature, feminist theory, and contemporary philosophy, inspiring authors such as Hélène Cixous, Adrienne Rich, Bell Hooks, Audre Lorde, Rebecca Solnit, and Jeanette Winterson, and opening up new possibilities for women's writing and cultural criticism.
