乔伊斯对小说形式和内容进行的探索标志着英国小说史上的重大突破。

他的意识流打破了以时间为顺序的小说模式,改变了传统小说的时空观念;他对英语语言的创造性运用极大地丰富了英语的表意功能。

伍尔芙与乔伊斯的不同之处在于她使用意识流技巧时常常从一个人物不露痕迹地跳到另一个人物,描绘出在同一时间不同空间人物的不同活动及思想。

Aestheticism~~Aestheticism places art above life.~~According to the aesthetes, all artistic creation is absolutely subjective as opposed to objective.~~Art should be free from any influence of egoism. Only when art is for art’s sake, can it be immortal. They believed that art should be unconcerned with controversial issues, such as politics and morality, and that it should be restricted to contributing beauty in a highly polished style.~~This was one of the reactions against the materialism and commercialism of the Victorian industrial era, as well as a reaction against the Victorian convention of art for morality’s sake, or art for money’s sake.。
