Illuminating Inner Life : A Comparison of Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and Arthur Schnitzler's Fräulein Else

Stahl, Marie-Helen Rosalie January 2016 (has links)
In the early 20th century, authors increasingly experimented with literary techniques striving towards two common aims: to illumine the inner life of their protagonists and to diverge from conventional forms of literary representations of reality. This shared endeavour was sparked by changes in society: industrialisation, developments in psychology, and the gradual decay of empires, such as the Victorian (1837–1901) and the Austro-Hungarian (1867–1918). Those developments yielded a sense of uncertainty and disorientation, which led to a so-called “turn [inwards]” in the arts (Micale 2). In this context, this essay examines Virginia Woolf’s (1882–1941) development of her literary technique by comparing To the Lighthouse (1927), written in free indirect discourse, with Arthur Schnitzler’s (1862–1932) Fräulein Else (1924), written in interior monologue. Instead of applying Freud’s theories of consciousness, I will demonstrate how empiricist psychology informed and partly helped shape the two narrative techniques by referring to Ernst Mach’s (1838–1916) idea of the unstable self, and William James’ (1842–1910) concept of the stream of consciousness. Furthermore, I will show that there is a continuous progression of literary ideas from Schnitzler’s Viennese fin-de-siècle connected to impressionism, towards Woolf’s Bloomsbury aesthetics connected to Paul Cézanne’s post-impressionist logic of sensations. In addition to that, I address how the women’s movement, starting in the end of the 19th century, inspired Woolf and Schnitzler to utilise their techniques as a means of revealing women’s restricted position in society. Methodologically, I will analyse the two novels’ narrative techniques applying close reading and by that point out their differences and similarities in connection to the above-mentioned theories as well as the two author’s literary approaches. I argue that this comparison demonstrates that modernist literary techniques of representing interiority evolved from interior monologue towards free indirect discourse. This progression also implicates that modernism can be seen as a continuum reaching back to the fin-de-siècle and culminating in the 1920s.

Gender Within Stream of Consciousness: To the Lighthouse and The Sound and the Fury

Shumeyko, Amelia Mari January 2008 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Mary J. Hughes / Based on the current sociological views of gender, this paper will examine the various constructs of femininities and masculinities as observed in stream of consciousness fiction. Using Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury, one can view the interactions of pressures which establish characters' resistance or acceptance of gender roles. Because of their narrative styles, both Woolf and Faulkner provide perspectives which would normally be concealed. The characters will be organized and analyzed based upon their generations and genders, concluding with aspects of both novels which do not fit into this schema. These "complications" also bear heavily on the implications of gender in both novels, highlighting the authors' individual intentions in writing. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2008. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Fluxo de consciência : variações no teatro contemporâneo / Fluxo de consciência: variações no teatro contemporâneo

Oliveira, Ângela Francisca Almeida de January 2009 (has links)
O presente trabalho, "Fluxo de Consciência: percurso e articulações no teatro contemporâneo", se propõe ao estudo do fluxo de consciência como proposta estética pertinente ao teatro. Parte-se de sua definição na psicologia, a partir de William James, e de sua concepção pela teoria literária, no estudo produzido por Robert Humphrey, para, posteriormente, identificar seu uso no teatro. Por meio da articulação de seu percurso na dramaturgia, em relação às formas produzidas na literatura, examina-se o tratamento específico dado ao fluxo de pensamento no teatro, com base nas teorias de Peter Szondi, Anatol Rosenfeld e Anne Ubersfeld. A abordagem de sua manifestação efetivamente teatral se completa com o exame da situação singular que a encenação produz junto ao público, fundamentado nos trabalhos de Jean-François Lyotard, Linda Hutcheon, Hans-Thies Lehmann e Maurice Merleau-Ponty, e com a análise do espetáculo "Ânsia", da 3 de Sangue Companhia de Teatro, com direção de Rubens Rusche, fundamentada pela teoria dos vetores de Patrice Pavis. O trabalho defende uma modificação na constituição do fluxo de pensamento ao longo dos anos. Primeiramente centrado na psicologia de personagens, ao tornar-se parte da produção cultural contemporânea, ele se contamina com os pressupostos pósmodernos e sua existência se manifesta cada vez mais descentralizada. Com a consideração de um sujeito vulnerável, diante das múltiplas influências na "era pósindustrial", constituído no processo de interação com o mundo, o "eu" é visto sob a perspectiva da relatividade de sua determinação definitiva. Assim, a personagem também se torna ser instável, questionada em sua validade enquanto ser uno, passando a ser trabalhada através de fragmentos abertos à múltipla significação. Atualmente, verifica-se sua apresentação em elementos dispersos, que solicitam à recepção a conexão em meio à dispersão. A personagem é uma encruzilhada de discursos e o fluxo perde seu lugar central. O fluxo de consciência, como proposta teatral, se estabelece para além de características formais e alcança sua constituição como processo na totalidade da experiência estética. Retoma um tipo de existência que se aproxima de seu objeto original - os processos mentais e cerebrais - e se define em variabilidade avessa a qualquer tentativa de determinação definitiva. Encontram-se diversos tratamentos relacionados ao fluxo, que não se excluem nem se subordinam. Diante dessas diversas manifestações, verifica-se sua adaptabilidade a toda nova exigência, quando se estabelece sob novos moldes. / The current work, named "Stream of Consciousness: history and changes in Contemporary Theater", aims at studying the stream of consciousness as an aesthetic proposal relevant to Theater. Initially, we present the definition tailored by William James, in psychology, and by Robert Humphrey, in literary theory, to later identify its use in Theater. Based on the theories of Peter Szondi, Anatol Rosenfeld e Anne Ubersfeld, we analyze the specific treatment given to the stream of consciousness in Theater, throughout its changes in the history of Drama, compared to its characteristics in Literature. Its theatrical manifestation is demonstrated in a particular reaction the performance causes in the audience, based on the works of Jean-François Lyotard, Linda Hutcheon, Hans-Thies Lehmann e Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Besides, we analyze the show "Ânsia", by 3 de Sangue theater group, directed by Rubens Rusche and based on the vector theory by Patrice Pavis. The present work defends a change in the constitution of the stream of consciousness along the years. First centered in the psychology of the character, when it becomes part of the contemporary cultural production, it blends with the post-modern assumptions, and its existence becomes more and more decentralized. Regarding a vulnerable subject, who is conceived in the process of interaction with the world, before the multiple influences in the "post-industrial" age, the "self" is seen under the perspective of the relativity of its definitive determination. Thus, the character also becomes an unstable being, questioned in its validity as an entire and complete being, and works by fragments that allow many different meanings. Nowadays, we verify the presentation of the character in scattered elements, that ask the audience the connection among dispersal. The character is a crossroad of speeches, and the stream no longer has its critical role. The stream of consciousness, as a theatrical proposal, is beyond formal characteristics, and reaches its constitution as a process in the aesthetic experience. It recalls a kind of experience that approaches its original object - brain and mind processes - and is defined in variability against any kind of definitive determination. There are many treatments related to the stream; they do not exclude and are not subordinated to one another. Before all those manifestations, we verify that it can adapt to any new demand when is established under new patterns.

In the book, the stream of consciousness is utilized to represent the inner perception of the characters. To translate the technique, the main challenge in the adaptation process, according to the screenwriter David Hare (2002), flashback and voice-over were avoided. Instead of describing thoughts, the movie transforms subjectivity in external actions, through dialogues and the characterization of the actors. Our hypothesis is that the score, composed by the American musician Philip Glass, is the filmic element that suggests the expression of the stream of consciousness in the movie. Not only the post-minimalism aesthetic is close to concepts of the stream of consciousness fiction, but also the way the music intertwines itself with images. This way, we try to articulate ideas by authors of literary theory (Wood, 2012; Humphrey, 1979), musical studies (Gorbman, 1987; Ross, 2009) and visual culture (Mitchell, 1986; Rancière, 2009) to deal with the relationship between text, moving image and sound. We consider these elements are in constant convergence in contemporaneity, since literature, cinema and music are inserted into a world where there is a constant displacement between the instances of the speakable and of the visible, in which forms and materialities are constantly mixing up. / Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar o filme The Hours (2002), adaptação cinematográfica do romance homônimo de Michael Cunningham (1998). No livro, o fluxo de consciência é utilizado para representar a percepção interior dos personagens. Para a tradução da técnica, principal desafio do processo de adaptação segundo o roteirista David Hare (2002), evitou-se o flashback e voice-over. No lugar da descrição do pensamento, o filme transforma a subjetividade dos personagens em ação exterior, por meio dos diálogos e da caracterização dos atores. O nosso pressuposto é de que a trilha musical, composta pelo músico norte-americano Philip Glass, é o elemento fílmico que sugere a expressão de um fluxo de consciência na película. Não só pelo estilo da composição, pós-minimalista, se aproximar de conceitos estéticos da ficção de fluxo de consciência, mas também pelo modo como essa música se entrelaça às imagens. Nesse sentido, procuramos articular autores da teoria literária (Wood, 2012; Humphrey, 1979), dos estudos musicais (Gorbman, 1987; Ross,2009) e da cultura visual (Mitchell, 1986; Rancière, 2009) para tratar da relação entre texto, imagem em movimento e som. Consideramos que esses elementos estão em constante convergência na contemporaneidade, já que a literatura, o cinema e a música estão inseridos em um mundo onde há um deslocamento contínuo entre as instâncias do dizível e do visível.

Reading Consciousness: Analyzing Literature through William James' Stream of Thought Theory

Casto, Andrew Christopher 24 May 2011 (has links)
Proceeding from the assumption that psychoanalytic theory has yielded insightful literary interpretations, I propose that equally legitimate readings result from analyzing consciousness in literature. William James' "Stream of Thought" offers a psychological theory of consciousness from which I develop a literary theory that counterbalances the Freudian emphasis on the unconscious. Examining two works by Henry James, I demonstrate how assessing the elements of a character's consciousness leads to conclusions at which other theories do not arrive. This analytical approach leads to not only an alternative critical agenda but also a fuller understanding of the psychological function of the character's and, by extension, the human mind. / Master of Arts

'I Am Rooted, But I Flow': Virginia Woolf and 20th Century Thought

Hanna, Emily Lauren 20 May 2012 (has links)
My thesis is about Virginia Woolf’s novels, Mrs. Dalloway, The Waves, and To the Lighthouse. I examine these novels in relation to the theories of Henri Bergson, William James, and Sigmund Freud, and the groundwork of Modernism. I relate Woolf's use of water imagery and stream of consciousness technique to Bergson’s theory of “la durée,” or psychological, subjective time, James’ “stream of consciousness” theory in psychology, and Freud’s theory of the “oceanic” feeling of religious experience.
