Abstract:This study compares the differences and similarities in Woolf's novels of Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse in terms of the characters' life space. Based on Bachelard's space phenomenology, this essay examines two kinds of domestic space——the self's life space of self-expression and the connective communal space with the others, focusing on spacial images such as room, door and window. From Mrs. Dalloway to To the Lighthouse, Individuals realize the inauthenticity in their house of disenchanted dream and progress to a more connected communal voice represented by plural form “we” through connection and understanding with the other.
