Narrative Techniques In Portraying Persecuted Women: A Comparative Analysis Of Mahasweta Devi And Toni Morrison

Abstract

Inequality between the sexes is a global problem that "women" of all socioeconomic backgrounds and ethnicities have had to contend with. The general public does not care much about "women" as they are seen as subservient to males in society. Internally and internationally, this disparity has harmed "women," making them susceptible to exploitation and oppression in both their homes and communities. Examining how 'women' have shown strength and power in the face of these constraints is the primary goal of this research. This study demonstrates how "women" challenge patriarchal society's long-held prejudices and assumptions by actively working to dismantle obstacles and prove the male-dominated perspective incorrect. Feminism and the lives of Mahasweta Devi and Toni Morrison will be the focus of this research. We will also look at how myths and other seemingly "neutral" systems have helped perpetuate patriarchies around the world and how fiction can reimagine old stories to give women the power they have always lacked.
