Abstract

Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf, the outstanding British modernist writer presents a profound critique of the traditional patriarchal society. Based on the opposition between ecofeminism and the patriarchal system shown in the writing, it can be found that the novel criticizes the natural predatory and exploitation of women by the marriage system under the patriarchal society, the hypocrisy, boredom and irony of the extravagant life of the aristocracy under the hierarchy, and the destruction of the environment and blow to life by war. This paper aims to explore the reduction of the negative effects of the traditional patriarchal system, to safeguard women's rights, to promote resource conservation and environmental protection, in order to advocate the establishment of an equal and harmonious society, which reflects relevance in contemporary governance based on a critique of the patriarchal system in Woolf's works.
