Abstract
Through the relationship between two contemporary works by Virginia Woolf, Orlando and A Room of One’s Own, the purpose is to highlight Woolf’s research around the characteristics of the poetic mind, as the creative capacity of an incandescent and undivided mind. The question of the androgynous mind and the metamorphoses that allow Orlando to explore the world through the masculine and the feminine cannot be separated from the destinies of human creativity and from female history as a history of missed rights
