Notes | ['On 9 and 16 October 1920, the New Statesman printed the two letters of Virginia Woolf, written in reply to Affable Hawk\'s (Desmond MacCarthy\'s) review of Arnold Bennet\'s collection of essays entitled: Our Women: Chapters on the Sex-discord, published in the same year.\r\nBennett\'s assertion that women were inferior to men, and Affable Hawk\'s positive review of his book, provoked Woolf. Their correspondence via the New Statesman is collected under the title "The Intellectual Status of Women", published in the referenced source.\r\nOn October 16 Woolf wrote: "There was no Sappho; but also, until the seventeenth or eighteenth century, there was no Marie Corelli and no Mrs Barclay."
