Education plays a role in the promotion of war since women loathed it as it seemed to promote and recognized men. The story on the success of a woman is told through Mary Kingsley who has been denied education in favor of his brother since the society is patriarchal. Thus, the fighting continues to thrive when the greatness of men is based upon the exploit of warriors. Herr Hitler said that women were better in bandaging wounded warrior. It is these people who averred that the injured in fight merited all care and commendation. She wonders how educated people men and women would influence young males that the fight was heroic. That way the author says, ‘…who can say whether, as time goes on, we may not dress military uniform, with gold laces on our breast…’ (Virginia, 1938) Woolf associates patriarch society with war because it is men, who are considered warriors and hero of the society go to fight. The military has been a preserve of men, women are not allowed to be in the military. Woolf believes that there is a connection between domestic tyranny and fascism, she says, ‘……the public and the private worlds are inseparably connected that the tyrannies and servilities of the one are the tyrannies and servilities of the other.’ (Virginia, 1938) By this, she means that fascism is patriarchy that has been extended to its maximum. Coercion and dominance of women by men are also considered an extension to how it connects to coercion and dominance of citizens by dictators. The paper further considers how Woolf views social institutions like education, profession and press play a role in promoting war. It also assesses the association between militarism and the idea of masculinity and femininity. This paper discusses the relationship between private and public worlds as seen by Virginia Woolf.

The book is published before the Second World War has just started indicating that it was written during the military rule of Adolf Hitler to express inequalities in all aspects of life including social and gender. She further assesses the effect of an institution like government, church and the general social order on the life and the wellbeing of a woman. Woolf uses this book to explore social, economic and financial aspects affecting the life of a woman. The Book Three Guineas (1938) by Virginia Woolf is a representation of women emancipation and the fight for the right of women.

When writing a book, play, novel or a poem, the author intends to pass a specific message to the reader.
