Symbolization Of Rani

This paper attempts to examine the fictional projections of Indian girls, to see how they emerge in ideological terms. Their journeys from self-alienation to self-adjustment, their childhood struggles against the hypocrisies and monstrosities of the grown-up world, eventually demolishing the unjust male constructed citadels of power that hinder their progress- are the highlighted issues. The point of comparison between the two novels focused on here is the journey of Rahel in The God of Small Things and Sai in The Inheritance from a lonely childhood to a tragic adulthood passing through a struggle with the complex forces of patriarchal society. Both the novels portray the imaginativeness, inventiveness, independence, rebelliousness, wide-eyed wonder and innocence associated with these young girls.

After analyzing the novel “Sold” and discussing for the first novel study, some topics exhibited were the unfair treatment of Lakshmi and women in general, how poverty and the environment severely affect people’s lives, and also how unfortunate many people’s lives are. Furthermore, a significant key point that is continuously expressed throughout the book is how men and society would treat and perceive women differently, and how men held a higher form of power and status because of their gender. Throughout the book, we see the complicated relationship between Ama, Lakshmi, and the stepfather. To further explain, a question from the discussion, asked by Alessia “Do you think Lakshmi’s stepfather will stop gambling and change his ways?” A further

Creative Journalist, Namita Singh wrote an informative article that analyzes the behavior of female characters, feminism, and education for the readers of A Thousand Splendid Suns. In this article she explains why Hosseini constantly mentions the desire for young girls to learn and how it can influence their development to become a strong woman. Singh claims that Lalias and MIriam's restrictions to education and liberation also restricts their great potentials throughout the novel (Singh 02).

In the heart-wrenching novel A Thousand Splendid Suns, Khaled Hosseini illustrates the lives of two women who meet under unfortunate circumstances. Mariam is a harami, an illegitimate child, born to a father who rejects her and an unstable mother who kills herself. She is forced into marriage with an abusive husband, Rasheed, an abuse that she endures through, as is her nature, with the help of faith in her religion and an astounding amount of resilience. When Rasheed later takes a second, younger wife, Laila, as Mariam is unable to bear children, she develops a special bond with Laila and her daughter, Aziza. After years of unhappiness with Rasheed, she finds comfort in these newcomers to her home and learns the meaning of motherhood. When placed under extraneous circumstances, it is this new family, excluding Rasheed, that she makes the ultimate sacrifice for in an act of pure, uncorrupted love. By providing insight into the circumstances of Mariam’s surroundings and revealing the inner workings of her mind with his interesting choice of novel structure, Hosseini encapsulates Mariam’s values of selflessness and the importance of family.

Usually when two people’s point of views are depicted in a story, the books are separated to help the reader understand which character is thinking or saying what. In these two books, the points of view from different people is a reoccurring theme among the pages. In A Thousand Splendid Suns, points of view from two afghan women are portrayed. At first, the story of one woman is told, then the book is separated into a different part telling the story of the other woman. When the stories become associated with one another, the book is separated once again into a different part, telling their stories together, but with chapters separating their points of view on the shared story.

The novel Siddhartha written by Hermann Hesse is a philosophical novel that explores the journey of life and to enlightenment. This is done through the narration of the life of a young boy – the eponymous Siddhartha by a third-person omniscient narrator. My goal in this essay is to explore the role of the most important female character in Siddhartha, Kamala.

In this novel, what the reader learns about the culture of the society is that men are the most important in the family. From an early age, little girls are taught to be submissive to men. Arranged marriages are common, as in Lakshmi’s case, she was promised to marry a boy whom she has never met before, whom she refers to as “the boy with the sleepy cat eyes”. The uncertainty of Lakshmi’s future is common for many girls as poverty often drives the mother or father of the young Nepali girls to sell them to wealthy families as a last resort. The girls are sold to wealthy families in urban India work as “maids,” but the actuality is that the young girls are sold unwittingly into prostitution. The girls are told they will work until they pay

The two heroines share a harsh background; they both have had a rough childhood and are searching for a way out of their misery. Their lives are centered around the strategies that contribute to their rise. When writing this essay I was mainly interested in exploring how even the characters with smaller roles could affect the outcome, could shape the path the heroines followed towards their rise, but also wanted to analyze all the aspects through characters contributed to the liberation of the heroines.

In my paper I will discuss how Sharazade’s role as a woman allows her to act as an advocate for female empowerment, through literature and storytelling. Initially, I will focus on the feminist role of Sharazade and how she is placed within her circumstances: 1001 nights of storytelling to the King to spare her life and the masses of woman after her. I will then go on to examine how Sharazade champions the case of feminine within her tales. She does so by intertwining female characters of power and intelligence. I will then go on to examine how women are viewed within the story, from slaves to warriors. Finally, I will take both Sharazades perception of feminism and how they are viewed within the story to examine their value within the story's setting, and the greater world. Sharazade reveals the harsh truth behind how women are portrayed in literature and the intensity in which they are finalized. She is allowing us to understand that women can not be placed under an umbrella term, but rather are distinct individuals who play in the structure of society-both good and bad. Although they are portrayed as such, women aren’t just women but are first and foremost, people.

There is an apparent thematic pattern in Bharati Mukherjee’s novel. Her major theme is expatriation but includes other themes like the theme of transformation or metamorphosis, the theme of journey, the theme of existentialism and the theme of feminism. An expatriate undergoes the process of up rootedness and displacement, alienation; accommodation in modern time is usually voluntary. In Bharati Mukherjee’s novels, most of the protagonists are born and brought up initially in India. They come from upper middle or middle class background. The protagonists of Bharati Mukherjee are women who embark on adventurous journey abroad. They face many difficulties and ordeals but they are not sufferers.
