Abstract:
This dissertation is centered on the novel To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf and how it portrays and expresses time through its three parts. The aim of this final dissertation project is to see if Virginia Woolf was influenced by modernism or not when writing the novel. The paper is divided into two sections. In the first part, I talk about Virginia Woolf’s life and modernism. And in the second part, I summarize the novel, and then, I proceed to do the analysis of time. After the analysis of the aspect of time in the novel compared to modernism, I have come to the conclusion that the writing process of To the Lighthouse was influenced by modernist techniques.
