FEMINISTIC READING OF ARUNDHATI ROY?S THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS IN AN INDIAN PERSPECTIVE.
Description
This paper has been developed to analyze the different elements of Feminism by studying the opinions or views of various scholars from their writings. The Indian perspectives of Feminism have been highlighted in this paper by analyzing and comparing the views of the Indian Feminist writers like Shobha De, Anita Desai, Anita Nair, Shashi Deshpande, Arundhati Roy and others. Their reviews have been compared with the opinions of Arundhati Roy by evaluating her text ?The God of Small Things? where she has highlighted the issues faced by the Indian women in the male-dominated society. The themes of subjugation, oppression, struggles, domestic violence, and gender discrimination have been discussed in the initial phase of the novel. But, later, the author has portrayed the three major characters like Mammachi, Ammu and Rahel to prove the theme of Feminism. The women in her stories did not endure the issues and instead protested against the society and its traditional norms to create their own identity. They have shown their self-confidence and inner strength to bring a change in the thoughts of the society.
