THE FEMINIST PHILOSOPHY: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF MOH’S THE EDGE

Abstract

Fictions get women as protagonists in novel that have emerged over the years and provided a cultural phenomenon that cannot be disregarded. It is likely to analyse the development of feminism in the field of literature by combining it with feminist studies in a social context. The essay begins with an introduction to the relevant background of Women in years past until recently had no fulfillment in life as most of the things done was imposed on them by the males - who are seen to be superior in terms of everything. This gapping class distinction which gave the women an inspiration to struggle which now is seen as a fight for equality among the men which in recent years has seen so much modifications. The African culture or society is a patriarchal society which sees the relevance of a woman only if attached to a male figure. The African culture is bias to women, female efforts for equality seemed almost impossible but the growing civilization of our society opened up ways for the coming of women writers to make cases for themselves. Women do not want to fit into positions or roles imposed on them, they want their voices heard, they want to be independent, they want fulfillment in themselves and this should be considered not with wavering eyes. The work takes a description of the present state of research and theoretical framework of feminist critical discourse analysis (FCDA) that will be applied. Next, this work as a voice brings to focus Moh’sThe Edge to push to limelight what is seen as injustice to the women folk and what society has chosen to be the fulfillment of women and not for herself.  Finally, the purpose of the study is to analyse what kind of demands for feminism are revealed in feminist novels, what are the progress and limitations of "feminist novels" and what kind of development can bring better results, at last, what we have learned and thought about.
