Abstract

This article presents a case for a J ungian reading of Mrs Dalloway. Clarissa Dalloway's obsessions with individuation, personality, and death are seen in the light of the problems that the modern man has in Jung's account of him, namely in the light of the archetypal process of individuation. The novel is understood as the hcroine's quest for the self. The article suggests that Jung's views could be fruitfully used in deciphering Virginia Woolľs work.
