Abstract:

In the gripping dystopian narrative of The Handmaid's Tale, Margaret Atwood skillfully weaves together a tapestry of societal despair and resilience. Within the bleak backdrop of a Gileadean republican society, where infertility plagues the land due to environmental pollution and the consequences of unchecked promiscuity, a glimmer of hope emerges. The remaining fertile women are transformed into "handmaids," unwillingly coerced into servitude, tasked with the sacred duty of bearing children for the ruling elite. These women become mere pawns, their bodies manipulated for socio-political gain,

Abstract:

As a speculative fiction, the book the Handmaid’s Tale written by the Canadian writer Margaret Atwood shows us a dystopian world where women are under the totalitarian rule by men, and not only women, men are also constrained by the totalitarianism in Gilead. Based on this, by applying the research method of textual analysis, the this paper mainly discusses the metonymies about power reflected in the Handmaid’s Tale, which are manifested in the dress color in Gilead, the stratification of the upper class and the naming of Handmaids in this book.

Abstract:

This research analyses the violation of woman’s body, especially the womb in the novel The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. It exposes the mechanical and problematized relation of Offred-the handmaid with the Commander linking especially to her womb. Capturing of women’s womb under fundamentalist regime indicates complexity accompanying gender deterioration due to the historical silencing of women on the one hand and on the other, it shows humanity’s failed attempt to understand women’s body, particularly the womb. In this regards, the paper takes the womb figuratively as the natural entit

To do so, Atwood must first build a miserable world that subjugates their female characters before she can create ways for these characters to resist.

Abstract:

Margaret Atwood's famous dystopian novel, The Handmaid’s tale, was written in 1985 during the emergence of the opposition to the feminist movement. The struggle that occurred between both parties of the women's rights issue excited Atwood, as an active advocate of this movement, to write this novel to alert women of what the female gender may mislay if the feminist movement were defeated. She has attempted to warn her readers through the life of Offred; a handmaid who expresses her dystopian feminist consciousness by taking the role of a storyteller and being the narrator and controller of her

But the UK stage première, transferring the Danish production for a run at the English National Opera that began on 3 April, revealed – in a way that the recording obviously could not – what a superior piece of theatre it is: music, libretto, direction, stage design, costumes and lighting all coalesce to thrilling effect.

Abstract: Margaret Atwood was born in 1939 in Ottawa, Ontario. When she was seven years old, her family moved to Toronto. Her father, an entomologist and professor of zoology, studied tree-dwelling insects. Atwood's passion for Canada's wilderness is present in most of her writings. Atwood is famous for the outspoken feminism in her books. From her first novel, The Edible Woman, to the dark masterpiece, The Handmaid's Tale (1985), which cemented her international reputation, Atwood demonstrated deeply concerned with the constraints society places on women and the facades they adopt in response

Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale (2017–) resonates strongly as an allegorical, science-fictional response to the Trump administration.

The program ultimately argues that, while hope alone is not enough to sustain anyone through the Trump years, it is the right place to start. Above all, the program points to the power of collective resistance. As Americans face down a fascist president, as they contend with babies torn from their mother's bosoms at the border, as
