Behind the Door
Tess Onwueme’s The Reign of Wazobia offers a groundbreaking exploration of gender politics and female agency in postcolonial Nigeria. Through feminist textual analysis and sociocultural contextualization, this study examines how the play subverts patriarchal norms via the radical leadership of Wazobia, a woman who disrupts traditional chieftaincy structures. Onwueme critiques systemic oppression by interweaving resistance, identity reconstruction…
Foucauldian Concept of “Death of Man” in the Waves
Virginia Woolf significantly impacted modernism as an experimental writer and challenged the conventional principles regarding realism. In this paper, Foucault's views on bio-power and the death of Man are used to analyze the main female characters in the novel The Waves, in order to see how their identities are shaped in a patriarchal society. It is argued that the stereotypes of femininity are internalized within the individuals by the normaliz…

Local Heritage/ Global Forces
This paper examines Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Telling (2000) , her last novel in the Hainish Cycle, which addresses intercultural communications among her imagined worlds. These relationships, which resemble those of our globalizing world, are analyzed in the light of Homi Bhabha’s theories of mimicry, hybridity and the Third Space. It is suggested that in this novel, Le Guin criticizes cultural imperialism and rejects both conservative and assimil…
Transnation and Transgeneration in Zoya Pirzad’s We’ll Get Used to It (‘Âdat Mikonim)

In her last novel, We’ll Get Used to It (‘Âdat Mikonim), a household of three women, consisting of a widowed grandmother, a divorcee mother and a daughter, is presented, and the absentee father, who lives in France, pulls the strings of the young daughter to gain control. The n…
The Mariner ’s Way of Individuation
As a Romantic poet who was especially interested in the workings of the mind, Coleridge, in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, has dealt with notions, ideas, and images that lend themselves to a Jungian reading, specifically from the perspective of the principle of synchronicity which is to be the focus of this analysis. The theory of synchronicity, being the principle explaining the concurrence of psychic states and external events which bear no c…
Construction of gender identities via satire
Many studies underscore the societal aspects of satire, yet its role in the construction of social subjects' identities has been mostly ignored. Since satire has been ubiquitous in various cultures and epochs, and identity is also among the primary contemporary concerns in our globalised and multicultural world, the study of the role of satire in the construction of social subjects' identities can prove to be significantly rewarding. Accordingly,…

Farrokhzad’s pioneering artistic career and her bold lifestyle created an unprecedented legacy for the woman artist in Iran. Her work defies all categories as she not only confronted the stereotypes …
