Abstract

This paper aims at the concept of Feminism in the select poems of Sylvia Plath. It analyses Plath?s poems Mushrooms, Daddy and Lady Lazarus in the context of the second wave of feminism.

The present paper analyses her select poems in terms of sexuality, family and search for identity. These are the main issues of the second wave of feminism. The main aim of this paper is to find out to what extent Plath?s work corresponds to the principles of the second wave of feminism in 1960?s.
