Like most people, I have had thousands of conversations, some enjoyable, some difficult, but most quickly forgotten. While some lingered for a while because the content seemed important at the time, they too eventually faded. There are others, however, that I not only remember but whose setting, specific words and feelings are as vivid now as they were the moment the conversation happened. Those are the treasured memories that I have played in my head over and over and have shared with family and friends.Each of these cherished one-of-a-kind conversations is a story about two individuals interacting at a moment in time. Each of those moments became part of my life story that I have shared with a select few. Now I am sharing them with a wider circle. Life itself is, in fact, a narrative with many chapters and I have loved them all. These conversations are a vehicle that allows you to understand a bit of my story without having been there.

The thesis examines Virginia Woolf's memoir, "A Sketch of the Past," in relation to her statement that in 1910, human character changed. A Freudian theoretical framework, Woolf's essays on character, and her novel, To the Lighthouse, are used to interpret and analyze the first thirty pages of the memoir, which cover the period from Woolf's first memories to the death of her mother, when Woolf was thirteen. The main character in this part is Woolf's mother, and the thesis argues for the centrality of Woolf's mother in shaping Woolf's later belief that character is the most important aspect of a work of fiction. The difficulty Woolf had in describing her mother is shown to relate to the challenge that her generation of writers faced in creating character, representing memory and existence, and capturing truth, either in a memoir or in a finished work of art, such as a novel.
