What and Why They Are: A Peep into Feminism is about the life and
works of four lady intellectuals who dared to communicate their
feelings about the fate of womanhood in the world dominated by men.
These authors are Virginia Woolf, Simone de Beauvoir, Kate Millet,
and Elaine Showalter. A critical analysis and thought provoking
expressions that revolved around the irony of women's situation in
the contemporary society and challenged several traditional beliefs
and societal norms about a woman in their respective settings were
pieced together in the works of these authors. The book endeavours
to provide an insight into the works of these authors by critically
reviewing them in order to trace out feminist appeal in their
avant-garde writings that appears in 'A Room of One's Own', 'Three
Guineas', 'The Second Sex', 'Sexual Politics' and 'A Literature of
Their Own'. As well the book looks at the works of these authors in
the context of their lives and discusses the biographical factors
that may have played an active part in shaping their sensibility as
feminists. The book has also made attempts to assess the authors'
respective positions in the realm of feminism that indicates the
evolution of critical thoughts in their respective works parallel
to the range of other thoughts .
