Women's Rights
“…punish her for saying that women should have votes.” (pg. 181)
Before the early 1900’s, women had few to no rights inside or outside of the household. Women were especially hindered from having any say in politics. It wasn’t until the 1920s that women’s rights began taking shape. In the United States, women were granted the right to vote when the 19th amendment was passed in 1920. The United Kingdom, however, did not grant women the right to vote until 1928. Woolf references women’s rights not only to show the cultural outlook of women in society during this time period, but also to stress Sally’s radical behavior.

Nationalism
“Boys in uniform, carrying guns, marched…on their faces an expression like…gratitude, fidelity, love of England.” (pg. 51)
Nationalism is defined as the attitude that the citizens of a nation have when they care about their national identity and the actions they make to preserve this identity. Throughout history nationalism can be traced in many cultures. This is especially true for Great Britain. Great Britain has always taken a great pride in its status as a super power. Historically recognized as being dominant, militarily and imperialistically, the citizens of Great Britain are known for their patriotism. Woolf’s sole purpose in referencing nationalism in Great Britain is to show how important it is and to give the reader a better feel for the culture. Woolf furthers the message of patriotism being important by saying that much of the population seems “ready to attend their Sovereign, if need be, to the cannon’s mouth, as their ancestors had done before them.”
From such characters as Septimus Warren Smith, it can be assumed that Woolf believes nationalism to be an important part of Great Britain's culture. At the same time, however, she portrays Septimus as being mentally ill as a result of being in the war which leads the reader to believe that she is equally aware of the negative aspects of being patriotic.

Renowned Visionaries
“…read Plato in bed before breakfast; read Morris; read Shelley by the hour.” (pg. 33)
Plato is one of the most renowned philosophers of all time. He was a Greek thinker who contributed in laying the foundation of Western philosophy and science. Woolf references this historical figure in order to make a connection with the visionary ideas of Sally and Clarissa who plan to establish their own society. William Morris was an English writer, artist, designer and socialist. Apart from his creative endeavors, Morris wrote several socialist doctrines. Though Sally and Clarissa may have been intrigued by Morris’ decorative work, Woolf references Morris to exploit the radical goals all three share. Percy Bysshe Shelley was an influential English poet and novelist. Shelley, who is considered to be one of the greatest lyric poets of his time, was also said to be an idealist. Woolf includes Shelley because of the similarities between his idealistic views and those of the two women.

The French Revolution
“…an ancestor had been with Marie Antoinette, had his head cut off…” (pg. 33)
The French Revolution, which is alluded to in this quote, occurred during the late 18th century. It was a period of political and social upheaval which reached its height in 1789. The purpose of this revolution was to overthrow the French monarchy and reform the government. It was during this frenzied time period that beheading became popular as a form of execution. The execution of King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette marked the beginning of a new era for France. Woolf references the French Revolution to develop the character of Sally Seton. Sally is portrayed as being an eccentric, opinionated woman. This claim of being related to a former French aristocrat merely adds to her wild, somewhat exaggerated persona.

Baron Marbot's Memoirs
“…she had read deep in Baron Marbot’s Memoirs. She had read late at night of the retreat from Moscow.” (pg. 31)
Jean Baptiste Antoine Marcellin de Marbot was a French general who lived during the 18th and 19th centuries and fought alongside Napolean. He has become most famous for his biography which gives insight into the Napoleonic age of warfare. In Memoirs, Marbot recounts the battles that result in Napoleon’s unsuccessful taking of Russia. Woolf references this book to show war’s impact on society. Using this book as Clarissa’s choice of reading material also creates a contrast between what is expected of Clarissa and her actual personality. This is key in developing Clarissa's character. This abnormal (at least for this time period) interest shows how multitiered her personality is and sets her even further apart from the other characters.
