Description
This study briefly examines the legal and social
position of women in the nineteenth century, with special
attention to Virginia Woolf's own family background and to
the development of her novels, culminating in To the
Lighthouse. A survey of the critics' views of the marriage
of Mr. and Mrs. Ramsay precedes a study of the ways in
which Virginia Woolf dramatizes that marriage in itself and
its effect on other family members as well as on the
family's circle of friends. Finally, it addresses the
relationship of Mrs. Ramsay to Minta and to the artist Lily
Briscoe and the legacy of her death in women's growing
awareness of their new role with the passing of the
patriarchal family pattern.
