The Portrayal Of Women In Masculinist Criticism: A Case Study Of Abd Al-ghaffar Al-attawi's "establishing The Features Of Feminism"

Résumé: This study investigates the structural underpinnings of female representation within male critical discourse, situated within the framework of postmodern theory. The central aim is to elucidate the essence and status of women as perceived through a male lens. Specifically, the research explores the male construction of female identity by examining the treatment of women as both subject and object within male critical writings. A key text in this analysis is Abdul Ghafar Al-Atwi's Establishing the Features of Feminism. This work is examined for its nuanced and non-stereotypical portrayal of women, focusing on how the critic reconstructs the female image through his unique, objective, and personal perspective. The study further analyzes the dialectical anthropological dynamic inherent in the relationship between the male critic and the female writer. By considering the psychological, social, and cultural factors at play, this research underscores the significance of addressing this dynamic within critical discourse.
