Women the fountain source of beauty and bravery have proved their mettle in all walks of life. The significance of their immense potential could have been confined to the margins had the world not produced reformers like Mary Woolstonecraft Simon de Beauvoir J.S. Mill and the likes of them. The seeds sown by these stalwarts have burgeoned forth a beautiful world to live in. The world today is full of women bringing laurels in every area. But still the rays of equality and admiration continue to spread to many dark regions where the souls of women strive for release. The present anthology is a humble attempt to disseminate the reactions of scholars and researchers to the noble cause of awareness created by poets dramatists novelists and critics who accommodate the weltanschung in their writings. This anthology is an endeavour to record the responses of scholars and bibliophiles to the views of veteran practitioners of literature delineating their viewpoints in a crass commercial and fast changing world. The twenty one essays in this anthology are not restricted to one geographic region but they also comprise the British American Canadian and Russian apart from Indian writers. It is hoped that the anthology will stimulate the budding scholars and careful readers in augmenting their thoughts to further enquiry in the field of feminism. 252 pp. Seller Inventory # 61383
