3.Virginia Woolf's provocative statement about her intentions inwriting Mrs. Dalloway has regularly been ignored by the critics，sinceit highlights an aspect of her literary interests very different fromthe traditional picture of the “poetic” novelist concerned withexamining states of reverie and vision and with following theintricate pathways of individual consciousness.
弗吉尼亞。伍爾夫(Virginia Woolf)在創(chuàng)作《黛洛維夫人》(Mrs.Dalloway)時(shí)有關(guān)其創(chuàng)作意圖的這番發(fā)人深思的陳述，迄今為止一貫為文學(xué)評論家們所忽略，因?yàn)樗怀龇从沉怂T多文學(xué)興趣中某一方面，而這一方面則與人們對“詩性”小說家(poeticnovelist)所形成的傳統(tǒng)見解大相徑庭。所謂的“詩性”小說家，所關(guān)注的是審視想入非非和白日夢幻的諸般狀態(tài)，并致力于追尋個(gè)體意識(shí)的通幽曲徑。

Although someexperiments show that，as an object becomes familiar，itsinternal representation becomes more holistic and the recognitionprocess correspondingly more parallel，the weight of evidence seems tosupport the serial hypothesis，at least for objects that are notnotably simple and familiar.
雖然某些實(shí)驗(yàn)表明，隨著一個(gè)物體變得熟悉起來，其內(nèi)心再現(xiàn)圖像亦更具整體感，辨認(rèn)過程相應(yīng)地更趨于平行，但證據(jù)的砝碼似乎在支持序列假設(shè)(serial hypothesis)，至少是對于那些不甚簡單、不甚熟悉的物體來說。
