London, at the end of the First World War, basks in the summer heat, and Clarissa - Mrs Dalloway - prepares for one of her charming evening parties. Yet as the evening approaches, the unexpected arrival from India of her first lover Peter Walsh, triggers vivid memories of the past until, piece by piece, Clarissa brings to the surface the story of her life, of childhood dreams, and the row so many years ago that precipitated her uneventful marriage. She is suddenly and startlingly aware of the force of life going on around her; of Septimus Warren Smith going quietly mad with shell-shock; of her daughter Elizabeth, almost now a woman, and of Peter, unaltered, yet changed as she feels herself to be. In 'Mrs Dalloway', Virginia Woolf reveals the differences in the way people think and see and treat one another, brilliantly evoking the feel of the time and, through the eyes of each character, the feel of life itself.

Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Seminar für Englische Philologie: Forschungs- und Lehrbereich Anglistik), course: Modern Fiction: "Ulysses" and "Mrs Dalloway", language: English, abstract: Mrs Dalloway,published in 1925, is widely accepted as a major work of 20thcentury English literature, because it introduced new stylistic approaches to writing and set basic aesthetic standards for the further development of literary modernism, thereby establishing Virginia Woolf as its leading female representative. Besides, the novel offers a subtle insight into the atmosphere in postwar London society, which was characterized by a feeling of overall destabilization and increasing isolation. Due to various causes, Great Britain’s political, economic, and social spheres had undergone fundamental changes during the previous decades: the rapidly increasing industrialization had completely transformed the working sphere, caused high unemployment rates and further fragmented class divisions, which culminated waves of political and social unrest; revolutionary findings in the natural and medical sciences put the traditional view of man into question and brought about a crisis of faith; beyond, the recent experience of the First World War and its aftermaths added considerably to an ‘atmosphere of gloom and doom’ in Great Britain. Altogether, the loss of belief into progress, the rise of scientific knowledge and the decay of traditional moral values resulted in a ‘disenchanted’ world view; the individual suffered from the growing atmosphere of coldness in society; he was “more isolated than ever before because he [could not] come in under an umbrella of common social forms, and thus escape from his sense of isolation” (Marder 64). Victorian guiding lines offered no adequate solutions for the demands of modern society anymore, and Virginia Woolf “was in accord with many of her contemporaries in rejecting Victorian values. The social code, she felt, had degenerated in most cases into mere formalism. She regarded Victorian morality as unrealistic and suspected those who professed it of hypocrisy” (Marder 47). Furthermore, her living at “a time when the hard-won victories of the suffragettes and women war workers were slowly being translated into law and affecting social attitudes” (Dowling 105) made her particularly interested in the emancipation’s cause, and in many of her essays and articles, Virginia Woolf questioned the traditional, socially constructed gender roles.

It's one of the most famous opening lines in literature, that of Virginia Woolf's beloved masterpiece of time, memory, and the city.

Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf is a landmark work in modernist literature, renowned for its innovative narrative style and profound exploration of the human psyche. Published in 1925, the novel offers a poignant and intricate portrait of a single day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a high-society woman in post-World War I London. The narrative unfolds over the course of one day as Mrs. Dalloway prepares for a high-society party she is hosting that evening. Woolf’s stream-of-consciousness technique delves deeply into Clarissa’s thoughts and memories, revealing her inner struggles, regrets, and the choices that have shaped her life. The novel weaves together Clarissa’s reflections with those of other characters, including Septimus Warren Smith, a war veteran suffering from shell shock, whose story intersects with hers in unexpected ways. Through its richly layered narrative, Mrs. Dalloway explores themes of identity, mental health, and the passage of time. Woolf’s lyrical prose and innovative structure challenge traditional storytelling, offering readers an intimate glimpse into the characters’ inner worlds and the complexities of their emotional landscapes.
