Lucy Honeychurch Character Analysis

The temporary feeling and atmosphere of terror that is throughout the story exemplifies the unexplained supernatural by showing Lois as a victim of an event she has no comprehension or power over. She is affected to a point where “she would never go up north… to any place with wild lake and wild trees and the calls of loons. (Atwood 129). In the rugged landscape of the wilderness, it is equal to death where in that the wild is very similar to the uncontrollable nature of death. Lucy’s presence is emphasized by her absence as she continues

Virginia Woolf in “A Room of One’s Own” uses the symbolism of a room to express solitude and leisure time. Women were excluded from education and the unequal distribution of wealth. Through this idea, women lack the essential necessities to produce their own creativity. Women wrote out of their own anger and insecurity. Men wrote intellectual passages that were highly praised because a woman could never live up to a man’s expectations in literature due to lack of education.

Throughout Jane Eyre, as Jane herself moves from one physical location to another, the settings in which she finds herself vary considerably. Bronte makes the most of this necessity by carefully arranging those settings to match the differing circumstances Jane finds herself in at each. As Jane grows older and her hopes and dreams change, the settings she finds herself in are perfectly attuned to her state of mind, but her circumstances are always defined by the walls, real and figurative, around her.

As long as evil existed unchecked in the town, it was Miss Strangeworth's duty to keep her town in check.In the story, “The Possibility of Evil”,by Shirley Jackson,the author addresses the ideas of a lady who writes letters to people telling them their evil in hope of them changing without the person knowing it is her who is writing the letters.Miss Strangeworth’s has a lot of characteristics,there’s only three that I would be able to describe her as organized,clever,and cruel.

The novel in which Jane Eyre stars in can be seen criticizing many aspects of those times such as the role and nature of women, child negligence and social hardships for those in a lesser class. Jane Eyre’s alienation from society allows for a greater reveal of the story’s culture, values, and assumptions. It’s presented through the use of gender, class and character conflicts throughout the story. On multiple occasions, Jane is judged for the presented factors reflecting the type of society Jane lives in and what the times were like at that time.

     A Room with a View, by Edward Morgan Forster, presents the story of Lucy Honeychurch, a young woman belonging to English “high society.'; Foster places this young maiden in a state of conflict between the snobbery of her class, the “suitable and traditional'; views and advice offered by various family members and friends, and her true heart’s desire. This conflict “forces Lucy Honeychurch to choose between convention and passion (Bantam Intro-back cover),'; and throws her into a state of internal struggle, as she must sift through the elements of her “social conditioning'; and discern them from her true emotions and desires. Foster develops and utilizes Lucy’s internal struggle as a means of transforming her from

The story begins in a hotel placed in Italy where a “muddle” takes place over the switching of rooms for a view. In these first few pages the main character describes Mr. Emerson the man who had offered his room as having some childness aspect but “not the childishness of senility” (pg 4). The author in my eyes is trying to draw a connection to the character and his reformist views and tie childness into Mr.Emerson as his matching views are new and young. The two characters introduced hold a large role in being the authors symbols of the peaking liberal social class mostly relevant in Italy unlike the sober aged ideals displayed in Windy Corner, Lucy’s childhood home in England. Another display of this conflicting culturalism is shown by the support of Lucy, Charlotte, and others in Mrs. Lavish, who was a struggling italian author in pursuit of writing a new novel paralleled with Mrs.Honeychurch’s outburst over the misuse of a woman's time and place when hearing about the female writer. Mrs. Honeychurch

At the beginning of chapter 13, Dr. Seward is writing in his diary about Lucy 's funeral. Lucy and her mother are buried together after a small service. The most striking thing about Lucy is how beautiful she looks. 'When the Professor bent over and turned it gently back, we both started at the beauty before us. The tall wax candles showing a sufficient light to note it well. All Lucy 's loveliness had come back to her in death, and the hours that had passed, instead of leaving traces of `decay 's effacing fingers ', had but restored the beauty of life, till positively I could not believe my eyes that I was looking at a corpse, ' writes Dr. Seward.

Although the isolation that defines much of Jane Eyre’s life seems only alienating, it also proves to be enriching, for Jane uses that isolation as a basis to truly appreciate the love she discovers when her family is revealed to her after she gains a large inheritance from a distant relative. She would not have been able to truly find and value the love in her family if not for the despair experienced early in life, as that despair led her to her family. She uses her loneliness to gather strength when it is most needed, allowing her to totally heal from the trauma of the red-room and enjoy the eternal warmth her new loving life

Within the novel A Room with a View, E. M. Forster explores the differences between 2 social classes. A young woman of upper class by the name of Lucy Honeychurch has traveled from a luxury estate in England to Italy where she will unlock new characteristics of herself. What Lucy did not know was that on her trip her world would take a complete 180-degree turn towards a perspective that is distinctly different than what she is taught to believe. Italy allows Lucy to meet impactful and influential people, such as the Emersons and Mrs. Lavish, who encourage to explore her mind and question her preconceived notions regarding both her place in society and individual desires for happiness.

I am very impressed by chapter 3, where a vivid party is given. There were upper-class people in that luxury house, but none of them perceived how pointless their lives had become. A part of people in the upper class lived an aimless life, wasted their money and time to looked for a lifestyle that they towards. The second of people is like gatsby, who wants to achieve a richer life just like what they had been dreaming about. But everything changes when they are too busy to chasing their dreams.

The next morning she wanted to say sorry to her mom but she found her mom covered with a pile of newspaper she died. Lucy stopped right before she was about to call 911 she thought if everyone saw the dirty house what will they think about her and her life. So she thought that I will clean the house very hard so there is not spot left dirty and she will have to keep the house freeze for her mum’s dead body. Lucy remembered when last time her mum got into an accident and had to go to the hospital for days and her aunt came over and Lucy and jean her aunt thought that maybe Lucy’s mum will be happy to see their house clean so they both cleaned it and when Lucy’s mum came home she freaked out and it only took her six months to destroy the house for forever and never cleaned it and plus she kicked aunt jean out too. Some chapters tell a little more details about Lucy’s mum. Lucy remembered that on Christmas Eve her mother gave her 7 wallets that were on sale and she felt like her mom

For centuries women have been forced into a role which denied them equal opportunities. Virginia Woolf expresses her frustration on why women were denied privacy in her novel, A Room of One’s Own. Woolf compares the traditional lifestyle tailored made for the opposite sex and the sacrifices that came with it. Women are limited intellectually as to not interfere with their domesticated duties. Even having the same desires for activities and education as men, a women’s place was not allowed in the man’s world.
