Essay from the year 2001 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: B, Staffordshire University, 19 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The modernist writers were deeply influenced by the changing gender relations and the attitude towards sexuality within society, which is reflected in their literary works. The patriarchal society was more and more questioned, particularly by an awakening feminist movement, and sexuality became a present issue of discourse after new theories had been introduced. Virginia Woolf's Mrs.Dalloway and James Joyce's Ulysses are discussed as two examples of a modernist novel in order to explain in which ways modernist writers dealt with the aspects of gender and sexuality.
