An Eco-Feminist Reading Of Selected Stories of Sara Joseph
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
co-feminism represents the union of deep ecology and feminism. Eco-feminism can be perceived as a practical movement for social change that discerns the inter-connection among all forms of oppression. Sara Joseph, the Malayalam writer, is a feminist and an activist. She shows strong eco-feminist pre-occupations in several of her stories. Her collections of stories such as ‘KaadinteSangeetham’ (The Music of the Woods) and ‘KaadithuKandaayoKaantha’ (Have you Seen the Woods, my Love) hold forest in their titles themselves. For Sara Joseph, feminism is a tool to attack all forms of injustice. In theStories of Sara Joseph we can see a writer full of concern for the degradation of Women and Nature.
