English: the she language of Virginia Woolf

I begin with the hypothesis that there are female types of psyche and male types of psyche and conclude that there are "male languages" and "female languages". In these terms, the English language is considered to be "female", while the main languages of the European continent are "male".

The section of this book dealing with psychology is based on Psychological Types, the extensive volume by C.G. Jung whose findings I summarise in the first chapter.

The section concerned with linguistics is based on the works of Virginia Woolf, whom I consider to be a great commentator on the psychology of the English language.
