Abstract:

The Indian women writers are the one who mainly talks about the male ego and female desire for freedom. Through their writings women writer tries to oppose the male dominance over them. Indian women writers depict the injustices, the anguish and the despair they received in a male dominated society. Many of the writings can be considered as a mutiny against the restraints which the society thrust upon women.

Abstract:

Indian women writers have projected women issues with their inner-aspiration as well as their peculiar responses to men and society. Contemporary Indian women writers are trying to trace assertion, identity consciousness as well as professional endeavor in women protagonists. Modern women portrayed in these writings try to become counterproductive to their real empowerment. In the present times these women characters are seen as more professional to become the official keepers of sexual equality. The study encompasses the works of an eminent Indian woman writer, whose writings are distinguishe

Abstract:

This paper aims to clarify the various representations of women that Indian-English women authors have offered. When it comes to women in Indian culture and tradition, independence, the pursuit of character, fighting, and the spirit of resistance have all remained foreign concepts. With the introduction of women's rights, however, Indian women's essayists have innately understood the worries and presented women as someone who battles against the cover-up and abuse of a man-centered society. Their paintings show how the advanced-age Indian woman is caught between tradition and innovation as she

The post colonial Indian English writers focus on major issues relating to woman such as her awakening to the realization of her individuality, her breaking away with the traditional image.

This project explores the intersecting discourses of the "Woman Question" and the "Indian Problem" from the market revolution of Jacksonian America through the early twentieth century. It examines how Indianness was legally and culturally constructed in the nineteenth century, from Jacksonian removal policy to the strategies of allotment and assimilation in later decades, identifying both legal and figurative parallels to the status of white women. As Native peoples were effectively erased under Anglo-American law, married women were likewise dispossessed by the laws of coverture, under which

Abstract:

Kamala Das is one of the best-known contemporary Indian women writers, albeit largely for the controversy that her candid, confessional writing has sparked in the relatively traditional context of Indian academia. Since the publication of her first collection of poetry, Summer in Calcutta (1965), Das has been considered an important voice of her generation. Her provocative poems are known for their unflinchingly honest explorations of the self and female sexuality, urban life, and women’s roles in traditional Indian society. Critics have expressed a range of opinions on her work: some laud her

Cette thèse s'écarte de l'approche habituelle dans les études postcoloniales qui privilégie l'idée d'hybridité conçue uniquement en termes binaires (Occident/Orient ou Nord/Sud) et au cœur de l'étude se trouvent la figure du subalterne et la négociation complexe des identités liées à la classe, à

Feminism emerged as a worldwide movement to secure women's rights on the one hand and love, respect, sympathy and understanding from males on the other. It focused on women's struggle for recognition and survival and made them realise that the time has come when they should stop suffering silently in helplessness. The images of women in South Asian novels have also undergone a change in the last three decades. Earlier women were conceived as a symbol of self sacrifice and suffering. In due course of time women writers affected by Western Feminism have exp-lored the alternative ideal of self as
