    Master Thesis
    The Status and the psychology of women in Mrs. Dalloway, Orlando, a room of one's own
    (2003) Akın, Pelin
    As a feminist writer of the 20 century, Virginia Woolf takes women as the main topic in her novels, Mrs Dalloway and Orlando and her essay, A Room of One's Own. However, she defends and supports women as an individual who should have the equal opportunities and rights with men in society. In her novels, it is indicated that women carry on womanly responsibilities and these become a heavy load on their shoulders. In her essay, she argues that women are not given a chance to develop themselves through communication with society and by earning a living. Since they are prevented from society, they become passive and silent. Consequently, women begin to feel themselves empty and lost. Psychologically, they are suppressed under this feeling. At home, they play the role of perfect wives and perfect mothers feeling themselves as the unimportant figures of society. Their feelings, ideas, and thoughts are never taken into consideration. This leads to a serious identity problem and damages their psychology. In society, they are called with the name of their husbands, which puts forward that they have no public role. Their only duty is limited within house. This is reflected as a lack of communication in their lives. Besides these, they are not given right to be educated. Due to the lack of education, they cannot earn a living. IV Virginia Woolf shows the identity problems which is the result of the status in society, and the psychological prblems of women in her works, Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and A Room of One 's Own.
