Women's Identities And Bodies In Algerian Feminist Literature: Form Oppression To Self-construction
Authors : Oulefki Djohra . Belabdelouahab Linda .
Abstract
In several ways, this article is about working out the historical injustice through which algerian women have struggled over centuries of radical changes. The paper aims at exposing the important changes that affected women's existence in three crucial periods of the Algerian history from the pre-colonial times till the postcolonial foundation of an independent Algerian society. It delves into the notions of female oppression, otherness, body mistreatment, and identity, focusing on the different ways in which the female bodies as well as identities are broken and deconstructed. The study, then, addresses the act of female resistance and self-empowerment to fight for freedom and emancipation as it is shown in Algerian feminist literature. To this end, this paper analyses Assia Djebar's, Ahlem Mosteghanemi's, and Fadhila Al Farouq's texts through a feminist perspective to reveal their feminist intentions and continuous negotiation for gender equality through empowerment and identity-formation.
