Abstract
Bu tez, Birinci Dünya Savaşı'ndan sonra 20. yüzyıl İngiltere'sinde var olan sınıf ve toplumsal cinsiyet sorunlarını feminist eleştiri ışığında Virginia Woolf'un Mrs. Dalloway ve D. H. Lawrence'ın Lady Chatterley's Lover adlı eserlerinde inceleyecektir. 20. yüzyıl İngiltere'sinde kadın kurtuluş hareketlerinin daha görünür olması ve kadınların oy kullanma hakkının yaygınlaşmasıyla beraber, kadınların kamu alanlarına, siyasi işlere ve işgücüne katılımları ivme kazanmıştır. Buna rağmen, Viktorya döneminin izlerini taşıyan 20. yüzyıl İngiliz toplumunun kültürel yapısında, kadının evlilikteki ve toplumdaki yeri hala geleneksel bir bakış açısıyla sınırlıdır. Bu tezde, Birinci Dünya Savaşı sonrası birey ile toplum arasındaki çatışmayı anlatan Mrs. Dalloway (1925) ve Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928) adlı romanlar, kadın, evlilik ve toplum çerçevesinde ele alınacaktır. İki farklı roman ve bu romanların kadın karakterleri üzerinden dönemin toplumsal norm ve kuralları göz önünde bulundurularak feminist kuramcıların düşünceleri ışığında evlilik kadın açısından kısıtlanmaya sebebiyet veren bir kurum olarak analiz edilecektir. Bu bağlamda, incelenen iki romanda da kadın karakterler eğitimli ve toplumda statü sahibi olmalarına rağmen evliliklerindeki baskılardan kurtulamamışlardır. Bu tez aracılığıyla bahsi geçen romanlardaki sınıf, kadın ve evlilik temelli konulara feminist bir bakış açısıyla yaklaşılması amaçlanmaktadır.
This thesis will examine the class and gender issues that existed in 20th-century England after the First World War in the light of feminist criticism in Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf and Lady Chatterley's Lover by D. H. Lawrence. With the increasing visibility of women's liberation movements and the spread of women's right to vote in 20th-century England, women's participation in public spheres, political affairs, and the workforce has gained momentum. Despite this, in the cultural structure of the 20th-century British society, which bears the traces of the Victorian era, the place of women in marriage and society is still restricted by a traditional perspective. In this thesis, the novels Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928), which portray the conflict between the individual and society after the First World War, will be examined within the framework of women, marriage, and society. Marriage will be analyzed as an institution that causes confinement for women in the light of the ideas of feminist theorists, considering the social norms and rules of the period through two different novels and their female characters. In this context, in both novels examined, although the female characters are educated and have status in society, they cannot escape the pressures in their marriages. This thesis aims to approach the issues of class, women, and marriage in the novels from a feminist perspective.
