| dc.description.abstract | This is a research on The Feminist Perspective in the Novel “Samanantar Aakash”. Samanantar Aakash is a novel by Padmavati Singh which was published in 2005. The novel won the Sajha Puraskar in the year 2007. The main objective of my study was to identify the aspects of feminism in “Samanatar Aakash” in terms of social, cultural and religious aspects, gender aspects, place of women and women rights in the society, and role of patriarchy. My research is qualitative research. It is completely based on primary sources of data i.e. the novel itself. To widen the knowledge and insights in the related area I have used many related books, articles, dictionaries, reference materials and theses. I read and re read the original novel. I selected fifty one extracts which were related to my study from the novel and analyzed them. The findings of the study showed that females are dominated by males in every society, especially in the patriarchal society. They are dominated even by the females themselves who follow the norms and values of the patriarchal society. The society and social aspects like culture and religion, and other social institutions favour the males where females are taken as secondary part and subordinate of males. This thesis is consists of five chapters along with references and appendices at the end. Each chapter is broken down into necessary heading, and sub-headings. The first chapter deals with background of the study, statement of the problem, objectives of the study, research questions, significance of the study, delimitations of the study and operational definitions of the key terms. The second chapter includes review of the theoretical literature, review of the empirical literature, implications of the review for the study and conceptual framework. Likewise, the third chapter consists of the design of the study, population and sampling strategy, sources of data, data collection tools and techniques, data collection procedures and ethical considerations. Similarly, the fourth chapter deals with analysis of the data and interpretation of results. And, in the same way, the last chapter presents the findings, conclusions and recommendations applicable in the policy level, practice level and further research level. | en_US |
