Spaces of liberatio Geo-hermeneutical reading of the new women's novel in Jordan
Journal Title: Conjuntura Austral: journal of the Global South - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 41
Abstract
Contemporary feminist novelists in Jordan are raising issues of emancipation, patriarchal society, violence against women and social attitudes in unaccustomed ways unknown earlier in the country. This is embedded within the political and socio-economic developments taking place in the country since 1990. The main aim of this scenario analysis is to explore and to re-think the space-gender nexus in the new women’s novel using geo-hermeneutical approaches.
