Virginia Woolf's Carlylean Pilgrimages
Revisiting a Great Man’s House: Virginia Woolf’s Carlylean Pilgrimages MARIE LANIEL LTHOU G H MANY EARLY TWENTIETH -CENTURY WRITERS TEND TO disparage Thomas Carlyle’s moral earnestness, emphatic A hero-worship, and stern authoritarianism, most of them also feel strangely compelled to express ambivalent feelings of involuntary allegiance towards the Victorian sage. Enveloped in spiritual turmoil, Bertrand Russell found comfort by reading Carlyle’s account of his own religious crisis in Sartor Resartus (1833– 34) and felt obliged to acknowledge that he was oddly “moved by rhetoric which [he] could not accept. Carlyle’s ‘Everlasting No’ and ‘Everlasting Yea’ seemed to me very splendid, in spite of my thinking that at bottom they were nonsense” (27). Such remarks help to explain Carlyle’s curiously cloaked influence in the novels of the period, ranging from E. M. Forster’s A Room with a View (1908) to D. H. Lawrence’s Women in Love (1920). In these circumstances, it was perhaps inevitable that James Joyce should recognize the advent of Carlylean rhetoric as a momentous stage in the development of English prose writing by including a true-to-life, if slightly irreverent, impersonation of the Victorian prophet in the “Oxen of the Sun” chapter in Ulysses (1922). Of all modernist writers, Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was perhaps the most reluctant to acknowledge any debt towards Carlyle. Throughout her life she was impervious to his egotistical rhetoric and critical of his authoritarian streak. In a letter to Margaret Llewelyn-Davies (23 January 1916), Woolf derides his oracular tone and dismisses his gloomy insights as the ravings of a misguided prophet: “I’ve been reading Carlyle’s Past and Present, and wondering whether all his rant has made a scrap CSA 24 2008 118 CARLYLE STUDIE S ANNUAL of difference practically” (Letters 2: 76). -

Celal Bayar Üniversitesi CBÜ SOSYAL BİLİMLER DERGİSİ Yıl : 2013 Cilt :11 Sayı :2 EXPERIMENTAL MODERNISM: THE SUBVERSION OF ROMANCE FORMULAS AND THE DISMANTLING OF REALIST REPRESENTATION OF THE CITY IN VIRGINIA WOOLF’S NIGHT AND DAY Araş. Gör. Dr. Çiğdem ALP Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi, Fen Edebiyat Fakültesi, İngiliz Dili ve Edebiyatı Bölümü ABSTRACT Virginia Woolf’s second novel, Night and Day (1919), has generally been conceived as a typical example of the traditional English novel, which is characterized by the realistic rendering of common life and ordinary people. Some aspects of the book such as chronological order, omniscient narrator, and the traditional plot of love and marriage undoubtedly point to the realist tradition that the novel resides in. However, it is misleading to evaluate the text simply as a realist work because the narrative strategies Woolf employs throughout the book subvert the earlier literary conventions and signal the commencement of modernist literature that has changed the form and content of the English novel in the following decades. Throughout this work, Woolf questions both social and literary conventions by subverting romance formulas and describing psychologically-perceived London. While the subverted romance structure exposes the established views on gender and marriage, the portrayal of London through the consciousness of the characters prevents the novel from being a wholly realist work. The aim of this paper is to analyze how Woolf challenges traditional form and subject matter, and hence lays the ground for her later modernist works. Keywords: Virginia Woolf, Night and Day, realism, modernism, romance, city, feminism MODERNIZME GEÇİŞ: VIRGINIA WOOLF’UN NIGHT AND DAY ROMANINDA ROMANS GELENEĞİNİN VE REALİZMIN YIKIMI ÖZ Virginia Woolf’un ikinci romanı Night and Day (1919), edebiyat eleştirmenleri tarafından genellikle realist İngiliz romanın tipik bir örneği olarak kabul edilir. -

Mapping the character of Clarissa in The Voyage Out (1915), “Mrs. Dalloway’s Party” (1923), and primarily Mrs. Dalloway (1925), I highlight Woolf’s conviction that negotiating modernity requires an exploratory yet protected consciousness for married women. Rhys’s early novels, Quartet (1929), After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie (1931), Voyage in the Dark (1934), and Good Morning, Midnight (1939), portray women excluded from the rite of marriage in British society. Unable to counter oppressive Victorian mores, her heroines invert the modernist impulse to “make it new” and face immutability instead, contrasting with the enforced multiplicity of identity endured by women of color in Fauset’s Plum Bun (1929) and Larsen’s Quicksand (1928) and Passing (1929). -

DALLO WAY rrfr Miroslav Beker It has been noted by several critics that the city or locale in general is often of outstanding importance in modern fiction. In Wellek and Warren's Theory of Literature we read that "the great city (Paris, London, New York) is the most real of the characters in many a modern novel."1 And writing about Madame Bovary Percy Lubbock says that "the town [Yonville] with its life is not behind the heroine, subdued in tone to make a background: it is with her, no less fully to the front; its value in the picture is as strong as her own."2 Referring to the locale in modern fiction, Hans Meyerhoff in his study on time in literature stresses that "the identity of the city has the same face as the identity of persons in the city. -
