| Abstract | ||
Feminism aims at addressing the concerns of women across the world. It offers personal, philosophic and political ideologies, theories, strategies and movements to revamp the system that ostracize and subjugate women in every sphere of human society. It attempts to disclose the male chauvinism and the cultural constructions that are embedded in social life and in the literary texts. It analyses the colonial mindset of male sex, the prejudice, and offers effective tools to obtain emancipation for women and opens up the new avenues for women to explore. It doesn‟t aim for a world of exclusivism rather strikes a balance to include everyone despite sex difference and calls for building a healthy human society. |
