Abstract

This essay applies Judith Butler’s theory to analyze how characters shape the protagonist’s gender identity and awareness of marginalized groups, in Orlando: A Biography. Through Orlando's interactions with Sasha, the Archduke, and Shel, the research traces her journey from deviation from traditional gender norms to acceptance with a fluid gender identity. By examining the impact of these characters, this study aims to highlight gender equality as the theme and the constraints behind the heterosexual matrix.
