Abstract
This study looks at Helene Cixous's feminist interpretation of Ismat Chugtai's short story, The Rock. The feminist method aims to highlight the limited choices and autonomy given to women while exploring the gender roles, societal expectations, and patriarchal conventions prominent in the story. Use a qualitative approach to thoroughly understand the lived experiences of people in the phallocentric domain. Examine Helen Cixous's explanation of the individualized interpretations, sentiments, and meanings connected to gender roles, sexuality, and power dynamics. The phallocentric domains of Cixous explore how contemporary women contribute to a life that is diminished and the oppression they experience, illuminating the greater problems that stifle and constrain women. Using Helen Cixous's phallocentric framework to analyze the text, the research findings expose the severe entrenchment of patriarchal power systems that uphold the objectification and enslavement of the female body, underscoring the pressing need for feminist resistance and liberation.
