Previous issue date: 2003 / This study presents a comparative analysis between Virginia Woolf s Orlando and
Jacqueline Harpman s Orlanda. It takes as a starting point the fact that Harpman houses
Woolf s novel inside her own text and plays overtly with parody, citation, allusion, and mise
en abyme, techniques which had already been used by Woolf. The analysis points out the
way Harpman transcontextualizes the structural elements in Woolf s novel and reexamines
questions that had been raised by Woolf almost seventy years ago.
This research goes beyond the technical features to demonstrate that the heart of the
matter may reside in human being s eagerness to be accepted as a multiple self, what leads the
analysis into studying the mythical representations of the double. After demonstrating the
way Harpman transcontextualizes the key elements in Woolf s novel, the analysis follows the
itinerary of the double in both narratives, focusing primarily on Narcissus and the Androgyne
and secondarily on other mythical figures like Apollo and Daphne
