Abstract (2. Language): 
The modernists' works were seldom considered to have any relevance to the topical issues of the cultural background against which they were created. Too little interested, at least apparently, in their immediate cultural environment, it is very improbable that a modernist's work could possibly open up new ways of understanding the twentieth to the twenty-first turn-of-the-century society and it is even less probable that it should imagine solutions to the world's crises. Yet, it is Virginia Woolf's book-length essay 'Three Guineas' that contradicts our original assumptions about modernist literature and demonstrates that a modernist's work is likely to offer solutions to the crises of our contemporary world.
