Abstract | This research explores the representation of ecofeminism in contemporary novels, specifically focusing on Sarah Joseph’s Gift in Green, Namita Gokhale’s Things to Leave Behind, Barbara Kingsolver’s Prodigal Summer, Rae Meadows’ I Will Send Rain, and Arundhati Roy’s The God of Small Things. By examining the relationships that female protagonists have with their environments, the study reveals how factors like race, class, and sexuality intersect to shape their experiences and views on ecological issues. The research methodology of this paper utilizes a qualitative approach focused on textual analysis and thematic exploration of contemporary novels that engage with ecofeminism. The characters embody ecofeminist principles, highlighting the connections between gender oppression and environmental degradation. This research emphasizes the importance of intersectionality in understanding the varied experiences of women and their roles as guardians of the environment. By placing these narratives within the context of contemporary social and environmental challenges, the study underscores the relevance of ecofeminism in literature as a tool for raising awareness and inspiring action. Ultimately, this research contributes to the broader conversation on ecofeminism, showcasing its significance in literary analysis and the pursuit of social justice. |
