Claiming that she will buy the flowers herself and alleviate the burden of her servant Lucy who has enough to do‚ it is also ironic

    The text under interpretation is the extract from Virginia Woolf’s novel “Mrs Dallaway”. Virginia Woolf was born in london at the end of the 19th century‚ her life wasn’t easy as she lost almost all her family. That caused her several breakdowns and through her works one can see her poor mental state. In some of her novels she moves away from the use of plot and structure to employ stream-of-consciousness to emphasize the psychological aspects of her characters. Themes in her works include gender

    a piece of literature or film is to determine the vantage point from which the audience witnesses the story. Determining this is extremely useful because it answers many questions about why characters act a certain way. For example‚ in The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)‚ the point of view is omniscient‚ similar to many films. An omniscient point of view is where the audience can see the actions of all characters independent of the others; they are made aware of the thoughts and emotions

    more emphasis on Mr Ripley’s thought process. Recently I watched The Talented Mr. Ripley. I believe the film’s purpose was to entertain and keep the viewer involved‚ and it did a great job of doing so.

Mrs. Warren ’s Profession however‚ presented both an argument and counter-argument
