碩士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 英語教育研究所 === 85 === In this thesis I suggest that Freudian theory is one of the best approaches to the study and research for Virginia Woolf's novel, Orlando. Chapter One describes Woolf's personal background, and discusses the feasibility of Freudian approach to this novel, Orlando. Chapter Two is the elucidation of Freudian concepts of bisexuality and woman's growth. Chapter Three focuses upon Woolf's androgyny and Freud's bisexuality. Chapter Four delineates the ambivalent sex change in the novel Orlando and the development of Orlando's femininity as well. Chapter Five affirms the feasibility of Freudian as a method to appreciate Woolf's novel, Orlando.
