1 Character Analysis of Matilda Wormwood from Roald Dahl's
1 Character Analysis of Matilda Wormwood from Roald Dahl's Matilda Roald Dahl’s Matilda is one of the most famous children’s novels of the 20th century. The protagonist of this tale is Matilda Wormwood, a five and a half-year-old girl with a brilliant and lively mind that distances her from the rest of the family. Matilda’s character is particularly interesting as she has a powerful personality with extraordinary mental abilities, and she manages to overcome all the obstacles that surround her. The main aspect of Matilda’s personality is her particular image. From the beginning of the novel, Dahl described Matilda as exceptional person: “the child in question is extraordinary, and by that, I mean sensitive and brilliant” (1). Natov called her a rebellious superhero child with extraordinary mental strengths (140). Moreover, it is interesting that coming for the first time to the library, Matilda starts reading the book Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. This fact makes a reader assume that a great change will happen with the main character. However, Matilda is growing up surrounded by a not appreciating environment. The girl’s parents are not interested in education or literature. Her mom, Mrs Wormwood, spends afternoons playing bingo, and her dad, Mr Wormwood, is a cheater. As grotesquely described by the author, they were too involved in their “silly little lives” to understand how special their daughter is (Dahl 2). Matilda, therefore, is continually told by her parents that she is “a noisy chatterbox” and that “small girls should be seen and not heard” (Dahl 11).

Interpretations of Feminism in the Works of Roald Dahl
BA-Essay English “The Tiniest Mite Packs the Mightiest Sting” Interpretations of Feminism in the Works of Roald Dahl Marta Þórðardóttir Supervisor: Dr. Jessica Murphy May 2019 University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English “The Tiniest Mite Packs the Mightiest Sting” Interpretations of Feminism in the Works of Roald Dahl B.A. Essay Marta Þórðardóttir Id.: 1105953449 Supervisor: Jessica Murphy May 2019 Abstract In this thesis, three works by the beloved children’s author Roald Dahl will be discussed, namely Matilda, The BFG, and The Witches. To begin with, the adventurous life of Roald Dahl will be briefly looked at. As the primary goal of this thesis is to explore the feminist influence of the previously mentioned books, the historical background during the time of publication and feminist movement will be examined as well. In addition, the importance of good role models in literature will be explored, for in today´s imposing and fast-paced society it is vital for young girls to have strong role models to look up to. Each novel will be considered individually, and the focus will be on the female characters in the aforementioned books and the representation of femininity therein. The portrayal of different female characters will be examined in order to consider how it affects young readers’ concept of femininity. The characters in these novels vary from small but brave girls to frail women to monstrous and “masculine” women, and even to witches. Although the contrast between the characters is pronounced, each one is feminine in her own way. The adaptation of one of these works is also briefly looked at, to see if it furthers the feminist message of the story.
