To the Lighthouse

      

            As we know that Virginia Woolf tries talk about reality of the society. She represent real image of the society. Her writing style is simple but effective one.And we also know that her works examines the structure of human life , from the nature of relationships  to the experience of time. As we know that her writing also addresses issues relevant to her era and literary circle. One of her most experimental work To the Lighthouse, she represent the real image of the society. She represent the real image of which type of women role in society. As we know that she try to convey her message with her writing and we also know that she drags reader into absurdity with her writing so we can say that it is her stream of consciousness. And she represent very well  in her writing. At the end we can say that  with her writing she represent very well and effectively in this and in this style only.

       Yes I am totally agree with this statement that “ The novel is both the tribute and critique of Mrs.Ramsay”. As we know that Virginia Woolf is highly intellectual writer. In this novel she represent two types of personality. One person focus on family and one is individual. One side we see that Virginia woolf tries to convey that Mrs. Ramsay is quite good in house work and best housewife.But at the same time she put one individual character Lily Briscoe and we can say that it is known as Virginia Woolf herself. So we can say that may be she is not satisfied with Mrs.Ramsay’s character. So we can say that she represent both the perspective of lady’s life. She represent one is good house work and one is individual human being. And we also see that Mrs.Ramsay’s painting give message that she is also a person outside the home, without home.So this statement represent the reality about the society.  

 
       My view is about this statement, as we know that symbol always say something and symbols are objects, characters, figures, or colors used to represent abstract ideas or concept. We can say that Lighthouse is not stand for only two it characters like Mrs.Ramsay and  Lily Briscoe But it is stand for individual. But it represent inner voice. As we know that one strong character Mrs.Ramsay does only household work but she is individual person, who handle everything in any time and in any situation. As we know that Lily is painter and she is individual and it is itself achievement for her. So we can say that they both did their work very properly and positively. Both character represent individuality. We also know that the light house suggest that the destinations that seem surest are most unobtainable. As usual Saryu say that it is for strong, personal self confidence, self assurance, faith, belief and support. So we can say that the lighthouse is stand for their strong inner foundation and their inner voice. 

          AS we know that “KUNSTLERROMEN” is German term and simple meaning of this term is growth of an artist. And it also represent the quality of artist.  So we can say that this term reflect in this novel. We can easily say that ‘ To the Lighthouse’ is a “KUNSTLERROMEN” novel because it represent two artist’s growth. One growth of Virginia Woolf’s and another is Lily Briscoes. So here growth reflect in side the novel and out side the novel. So in side the novel  we see that Lily’s painting represent growth of artist and out side the we see that growth of Virginia Woolf’s writing. So in this novel we clearly see that two artist growth. As a result we can say that growth is natural with the help of experience. So at end we can say that “ To THE LIGHTHOUSE” is true ‘ KUNSTLERROMEN’ novel. 

      Here I compared beginning and ending f the novel andfilm adaption of the novel. As per my understanding when we read original novel we can not understand all the things easily but when we see film we get better understanding. As we know that this novel open ended novel. When we look at beginning , we see that James desire to go saw the lighthouse is thwarted by an instructive father. And at the of the novel, he reconciles with his father as his desire to see the lighthouse is satisfied. So we can say that it is the major thing which different in it. And I accept that novel is more poignant than movie . As usual Saryu say that movie restrict our imagination. As we know that we feel tone in movie but in novel we can not feel anything. So movie is more powerful compared with novel. 

       As we know that Lily’s painting represent a struggle against gender convention, represented by Charles Tansley’s statement that women can’t paint or write. And we also know that Lily completed her painting but after completed her painting she realize that she make a mistake. She represent Mrs.Ramsay in her painting but she cannot do. And she also used words spoken by Mrs.Ramsay “ Closed doors, open windows”. So my view is that she  feel she never become Mrs.Ramsay and she cannot justify her painting also. As usual Saryu say that close door of thinking about her and open windows of understanding that she has to believe in herself.So here Virginia Woolf represent the real image of one individual women and her art and thinkingpower.
