Woolf's reputation was at its greatest during the 1930s, but declined considerably following World War II. The growth of feminist criticism in the 1970 held re-establish her reputation. During the interwar period, Woolf was an important part of London's literary and artistic society. In 1915 she has published her first novel ' The Voyage Out .' Her best known works include the novels ' Mrs. Dalloway ', ' To the Lighthouse ' and ' Orlando .'

Logocentrism is a key term in deconstruction; it argues that there is a persistent but morbid centring of Logos (meaning, thought, truth, law, reason, logic, word and the Word) in Western thought since Plato. Writing is not acquired with one hundred success, nor do all people in the world have written language in their systems. So, when we write, we are representing something that exists beyond the scratches we make on paper. Logocentrism is a part of violent hierarchy which is one of the feature of the post structuralism. German philosopher Ludwig Klages was keenly aware of this relationship, and in the 1920s, he coined the term logocentrism . "Logos" is the Greek word for speech, thought, law, or reason, and a logocentrist, is someone who would view ' speech as the central principle of language and philosophy. ' The philosopher Derrida further explains: Speech is the original signifier of meaning, and the written word is derived from the spoken word. Logocentr...

Suffrage is the right or privilege of voting and is frequently incorporated among the rights of citizenship. Though, in the broadest sense the suffrage movement embodies the fight by all individuals to obtain voting rights, the term is seen to be synonymous with the woman's suffrage movement, which stemmed from the fight for women's rights.

Both organised the first woman's rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York on 1848. Stanton drafted the " Declaration of Sentiments ", a document declaring tha...

A broadly defined multinational cultural movement (or series of movements) that took hold in the late 19th century and reached its most radical peak on the eve of World War I. It grew out of the philosophical, scientific, political and ideological shifts that followed the Industrial Revolution, up to World War I and its aftermath. For artists and writers, the modernist project was a revaluation of the assumptions and aesthetic values of their predecessors. It evolve from the Romantic rejection of Enlightenment positivism and faith in reason. Modernist writers broke with Romantic pieties and cliches and became self consciously sceptical of language and its claims of coherence.  In the early 20th century novelist such as Henry James and Virginia Woolf experimented with shifts in time and narrative points of view. While living in Paris before the war, Gertrude Stein explored the possibilities of creating literary works that broke with conventional syntactical and referential practic...

Surrealism in literature can be defined as an artistic attempt to bridge together reality and the imagination. Surrealists seek to overcome the contradictions of the conscious and unconscious minds by creating unreal or bizarre stories full of juxtapositions. Founded by Andre' Breton  surrealism began as an artistic movement in Paris in the 1920 and lasted until 1940s. Writer and philosopher Breton propelled this movement with his publication of The Manifesto of Surrealism , as a way of fighting against the way art was understood at the time. With the horror of World War I still in Europe's wake, art had been controlled by politics. However, surrealists wanted to break free from the constraints being post on art and to do so in an extreme, yet positive way.

This technique is used...
