Описание: In a famous passage in A Room of One`s Own, Virginia Woolf asked `why women did not write poetry in the Elizabethan age`. She went on to speculate about an imaginary Judith Shakespeare who might have been destined for a career as illustrious as that of her brother William, except that she had none of his chances.
