弗吉尼亚·伍尔芙(1882-1941)是二十世纪上半叶最为著名的英国现代派小说家之一。作为现代主义文学运动的中坚人物之一,她不仅创作了一系列意识流小说以区别于传统的叙述性小说,而且还拟定了很多评论性文章以阐述她的现代小说理论,如《现代小说》等。实际上,即使在她的小说中,尤其是短篇小说中,伍尔芙不仅采用了意识流技巧,更重要的是,她也有意无意地宣传了她的文学现代主义的理论,甚至包括她倡导的女权主义运动。比如《墙上的斑点》(1919)素以她在文中采用的意识流技巧而闻名。实际上,它的意义远非如此。本文拟从伍尔芙的这篇著名的短篇小说入手,来分析她在这一短篇中传达的现代主义和女权主义的观点。一、现代主义,创作倾向的生动体现《墙上的斑点》是伍尔芙采用“意识流”技巧的第一篇短篇小说,这篇小说以一位妇女在一月某一天的回忆开始,她正坐在桌边,偶然之间,她“抬头看见了墙上的斑点”。一开始她猜想这个斑点可能是一只图钉, Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was one of the most famous British modernist writers in the first half of the twentieth century.

For example, “The Spots on the Wall” (1919) is best known for her stream of consciousness skills used in the text. In fact, its significance is far from it. This article intends to start with Woolf’s famous short story to analyze the modernist and feminist views she conveys in this short story. A Vivid Embodiment of Modernism and Creative Tendency Wall Spot is Woolf’s first short story using the Stream of Consciousness technique. This novel begins with the memory of a woman on a certain day in January. Sitting at the table, by chance, she “looked up at the blotches on the wall.” At first she speculated that the spot might be a thumbtack,
