Abstract

![CDATA[The main aim of this paper is to examine Virginia Woolf’s and Storm Jameson’s contribution to the representation of women in their works during the 1920s and 1930s. Woolf’s works mainly illustrate an intellectual commitment to political, social, and feminist principles regarding the middle-class and upper-middle-class women, but Jameson’s main attempt is to show the situation of mostly working-class women. Though she depicts other women from higher classes like in The Second Year (1936), in most of her works, the protagonist is from a lower-class. Analysing five works of them gives the impression that the main characteristic about Woolf and Jameson during this decade is that each of them try to picture one specific class of women. Keywords: representation of women, different classes of women, feminist, political, social The Representation of Women in Virginia Woolf and Storm Jameson during the 1920s and 1930s.]]
