Time and Memory in Virginia Woolf
Memory is a mind´s condition which implies the consciousness of the future. When we remember, we create again, here and now, something lived which it isn’t a duplication of itself but a representation of the past in the present which has a new meaning.

description | Memory is a mind´s condition which implies the consciousness of the future. When we remember, we create again, here and now, something lived which it isn’t a duplication of itself but a representation of the past in the present which has a new meaning. The mind is a product of the past which is memory. Our behaviour is the answer we have in front of the circumstances conditioned by the past; that means that the experience of the present is determined by the past. Virginia Woolf’s novels are passed through by the obsession for the times and the threat of the death. This writer has recoursed to artful techniques in order to the times was taken into consideration. In Virginia Woolf’s techniques, the narrator loses importance for the improvement of the character’s minds in whom resides the past and we can glimpse the future because in the mind lives the endurance, in the mind is the flow of time and the times is life. |
