| contents | Role of Women in Amitav Ghosh’s The Hungry Tide Mrityunjoy Mondal Lengua y Literatura Others Subaltern Patriarchy Empowerment Postcolonial Amitav Ghosh, the Indian born writer, is now universally acknowledged as a postcolonial and postmodern writer. Apart from presenting the contemporary socio-political events of southeast Asia, another unique feature of Ghosh’s novels is the way he presents his women characters. In novels like The Shadow Lines, The Glass Palace, and The Hungry Tide, the women characters are indeed exemplary. They seem to be fully conscious of their socio-political condition, and play significant roles not only to make their lives beautiful but also to enlighten and empower the entire community. They are desperate to make a mark, to create a separate identity for themselves, to create an example to be followed by the rest. The purpose of this paper is to show how the women transcend their abilities and challenge the gender roles of the society by their remarkable determination, indomitable spirit and astonishing endurance. 2021 artículo científico 2455-6580 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=703873561008 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561008/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561008/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561008/703873561008.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561008/movil https://doi.org/10.53032/tcl.2021.6.5.08 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7038 The Creative Launcher application/pdf Perception Publishing The Creative Launcher (India) Num.5 Vol.6 |
