Empowerment of Women In India
I would like to peep into the past when the stature of women was destroyed. They were treated as chattel in the early Roman society. In France,they were termed as half –soul creatures responsible for the destruction of society. Thee Chinese considered them as devil’s soul. Japanese men preferred to live unmarried lives. Before the advent of Islam,Arbs buried their daughters alive considering them as a sign of disgrace.In this way, they deprived women of their due place.
In Shakespeare’s works, many female characters are potrayed as being maipulated,if not controlled outright by the men in their lives as fathers,uncles,suitors,husbands. Therefore,Shakespeare’s works appear to send mixed signals regarding th notion of female empowerment.
