The Enigma Of Cultural Displacement For Female Indian Migrants: Translocation And Gender Oppression In Bharati Mukherjee's Jasmine
Authors : Benabida Salima .
Abstract
Immigration and the disputed concepts of culture and identity are indeed serious issue in diasporic postcolonial writing. This article addresses the 1989 book "Jasmine" by Bharati Mukherjee, which portrays the pain of the diaspora and gender inequality in the life of Jasmine, an Indian lady. It examines the difficulties faced by migratory Indian women, including gender discrimination, translocation, socio-cultural redemption, and self-transformation. This study relies on the postcolonial critical theories of critics and theorists, including Fanon's theory of the inferiority complex and Bhabha's theory of hybridity, ambivalence, and mimicry. These serve to illustrate Jasmine's battle with self-transformation and the reshaping of her female identity.
