Summary/Abstract: The fascination of island space is a defining feature of Western culture. The significance of the island has evolved in time, both in the mental pattern of each era, and in literature. By analyzing comparatively the representative writings of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century, I have identified the evolution of the gender dynamics and the subtle relationship established between the island space and the evolving characters within its boundaries.
