Here's why this is a key strategy:
* Personal Experience: Woolf weaves her own life experiences and observations into the text. She uses her own struggles as a woman writer to illustrate the larger societal and cultural barriers women face in the creative realm. This makes her arguments relatable and powerful.
* Engaging the Reader: By sharing personal stories, she invites the reader to connect with her on a personal level. This connection makes the reader more receptive to her ideas and arguments.
* Emotional Impact: Her reflections on the lives of women writers throughout history and her own personal experiences add an emotional dimension to her analysis. This emotional impact can be more persuasive than purely logical arguments.
The other two main strategies Woolf uses are historical analysis and literary criticism.
