For latest job updates visit https://recruitmentportalngr.com/

SeptimusWarren Smith: Septimus was a budding poet who enlisted to fight in World War I for romantic patriotic reasons. He was shocked by the horrors of war and its aftermath. He suffers from shell shock in the war, despises himself for being made numb by the war. He obliterates the physical world and lives in an ephemeral world in which he sees and hears things that are not really there including talking to his dead friend Evans. The novelist uses Septimus to highlight a contrast between the conscious struggle of a working-class veteran and the blind opulence of the upper class and also to the futility of war. He therefore looses the desire to preserve either his society or himself. He has serious mental problems and decides to commit suicide in order to avert the fate of his soul being destroyed by the doctors.

PeterWalsh: Peter Walsh is an ambivalent character who is afraid that he has wasted his life. He finds it difficult to stand by his decisions. For instance, he assures himself that he is no longer in love with Clarissa, yet grieves over the loss whenever they meet showing that he still loves her. He loves life and is usually frantic at the thought of death. For instance, he follows a young woman through the London streets to smother his thoughts of death with a fantasy of life and adventure.

Sally Seton: In the greater part of the novel, Sally Seton exists only as a figure in Clarissa’s memory but appears at the party. She is married with five sons and sees Clarissa as a blessing to her. She is effusive, an extrovert and without inhibitions. Sally, like other characters in the novel bear the burden of the oppressive forces of the English society but she takes refuge in her garden whenever she is tired of talking to people. She still believes that despite the problems one can still make meaningful contribution to the society instead of resorting to despair.

Richard Dalloway: Richard is Clarissa’s husband and loves her and their daughter Elizabeth dearly. He is simple, shy, hardworking and sensible, and finds it difficult to share in his wife’s passion for the beauty of life or desire to communicate truthfully. He is so shy that he plans to tell his wife that he loves her, but could not, partly because it has been so long since he last said it. He champions the traditions which England went to war to preserve and does not recognise the destructive power of war. He likes to associate with members of English high society and the assumption that women need him makes him happy though the assumption is wrong at times.

CONCLUSION

The novel presents the subjective experiences and memories of Clarissa the protagonist over a single day. The novel is set in the post World War I London. The novelist, through different characters presents the changing socio-political situation in England after the war. She uses the third person narrative, the stream of consciousness technique to present not just the external actions but also the inner workings of the characters.

In Mrs. Dalloway Virginia Wolf presents traditional English societal values that are being questioned. The action of the novel takes place after World War I, a time when the English looked desperately for meaning in the old order, but found out that it is no longer relevant. The social system that benefited the rich before the war comes into serious scrutiny and criticism as characters struggle against it.
