Intersection Of Gender Studies In Transitional Literature

Abstract

The intersection of gender studies and transitional literature explores the complex relationship between gender identity and societal shifts during transitional periods. This review paper examines the ways in which gender roles, expectations, and representations are portrayed in literature that emerges during times of social, political, or cultural transition. The paper draws upon various theoretical frameworks, including feminist and queer theories, to analyze the themes, characters, and narratives present in transitional literature. By exploring this intersection, we gain insights into the transformative power of literature in shaping and challenging gender norms in transitional societies.
