Woolf’s Voyage Out To Marriage : A Fillmorean Frame Semantic Study of The Voyage Out

Year 2019, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 13 - 21, 31.12.2019

Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the literary history of the matrimonial tussle between the characters of Virginia Woolf vis-a-vis the complex relationship with her husband, Leonard Woolf. Woolf uses matrimony to frame the perception that marriage serves as the tool to secure one’s position in the society, upending it as an establishment of a social status that entitles women to a certain show of respect. Using the Fillmorean Frame Semantics Theory Like the author’s life, Woolf’s heroines articulate many of the conflicts that the couple were no longer willing to acknowledge in their matrimonial bond.
