Description: The present anthology, Redefining Feminism: Discourses in English Literature and Popular Media, draws readers’ attention to women—their awakening to self-realization, breaking away from traditional images, their relationships with men, and their aims and objectives. The feminist movement encompasses sociological and political theories addressing issues of gender difference, with its core aim being the pursuit of equality for women in social, economic, cultural, and political spheres. This book represents a serious effort to explore and understand the psycho-social and cultural constructs within feminist writings. It also illuminates key assumptions and tenets of feminism by tracing the theoretical origins of the movement and highlighting several trend-setting works in feminist literary theory. Overall, Redefining Feminism can be seen as part of a broader movement to end sexism, exploitation, and oppression, striving to achieve full gender equality both in law and in practice.
