The correct answer is B. Why are women important characters in literature but unimportant in history?

Woolf is famous for her early feminist prose where she wrote about how women are underappreciated, which they definitely were at the time. She wondered how it was possible that all famous writers and poets wrote so much about women, and their importance, but when it came to actual, real life, they were often ignored and subjugated.
