Abstract

ABSTRACT: Indian literature in English has undergone a significant transformation over the years, reflecting the diverse socio-cultural landscape of the country. Within this literary realm, feminist issues have gained prominence as writers explore and challenge traditional gender norms and power dynamics. This essay delves into the feminist themes present in Indian writings in English, examining how authors address issues related to women's rights, identity, and societal expectations. The roots of feminism in Indian literature can be traced back to the pre-independence era when social reform movements sought to address issues like child marriage, widowhood, and female education. However, it was in the post-independence period that feminist voices gained momentum in literature. Writers began to articulate the struggles and aspirations of women, often using literature as a medium for social critique and change.
