Memory Tree Of Prominent Bud

Virginia Woolf, as an acknowledged master of modern western literature, creates a completely new aesthetics through constant bold attempts as well as explorations and promotes the future direction of modern novels in her own way. Many deep and classic works she created not only practiced with her own aesthetics, but also enriched the art gallery of modern fiction, which brought a stroke of fresh air into the modern western novels. It seems as if reading, thinking and writing become the whole part of her life. From each of her novels, we can feel her meditation on the universe as well as lives and her consideration of the life. In her most experimental novel The Waves, she brings the aesthetics into full play in so as to writes such a magnificent, poetic and picturesque work. In this novel, she focuses entirely on writing a character's inner world, using a lot of monologues to develop the topics about time, life and life processes, and establishing a series of beautiful pictures about conception which implies that life is a circle. This paper aims to explore Woolf's thinking about life and its values of existence through studying her work The Waves, then to observe her creative ideas.The thesis consists of three chapters. The first chapter tries to analyze their motional, mental awareness of six special characters in the novel according to Woolf's claim that the novel should begin with describing characters'"inner truth"and"the moment"to explore the true self of each existence that is the individuals who have unchangeable temperament decided by the fate when all subsidiary and minor things are removed.The second chapter traces back to the prototypes of six characters in the real life in the novel The Waves. Woolf writes her loved brother, sister, husband as well as her friends in the Bloomsbury group into her novel and set a specific profile figure for each of them. With her perfect memories of the past and feeling, she makes them permanently live in this world. And those memories are filled with her whole life. However, these portraits are different from ordinary photographs, they has become a historical examples which has a universal significance after the transformation of Woolf.The third chapter tries to make a deep analysis of Woolf's in-depth thought and exploration on life in The Waves. As the Bernard said, the six characters are just as six fish that Woolf spends all her life to find, while other tens of thousands of fish have quietly slip away from her fingers. In fact, every fish is a self owned by the human being, many of the characters constitute together into a complete, complex life. If lives have the same stereotyped course, then they should also be important and similar emotional moments, they will deposits in our body unimaginably. The real turbulence as well as the current struggle is just a kind of imprisonment or bondage for life, only we devote ourselves to nature does life finally come back to the origin. Like rolling waves incorporating the sea, life will finally enjoy its own full and perfect eternity.
