Abstract

This study examines the role of allusions in Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own, analyzing their function in critiquing patriarchal culture through the character of Judith Shakespeare and references to the Scottish folk ballad The Four Marys. Using Venuti's (2009) concept of intertextuality and drawing on Alice Fox's (1984) analysis of Woolf's use of allusion as a strategy for feminist criticism, the research explores the implicit meanings of these allusions, demonstrating how they function as tools for feminist criticism. The methodology involves bibliographic research and a review of relevant literature to support the proposed analysis, highlighting how the allusions allow the author to resurrect silenced female voices throughout history and provide readers with a deeper understanding of Woolf's text.

Keywords: Allusion. Feminist Criticism. Intertextuality. A Room of One's Own. Virginia Woolf.
