Authors Name: Dr. Sarathamani.M

Published In: Volume 7 Issue 8, August-2022
Abstract: Abstract Amitav Ghosh is a contemporary Indian Diaspora writer. In his novels women plays vital role in stabilizing the family as well as the society. Life of Indian women is solely based on the back ground of the family, culture, religion and the society in which they were brought up. The major historical events have changed the outlook of women from time immemorial. The role of women changes, according to the need and demand of the society. Each culture creates a unique context in which various roles and identities of women are determined. Women play a multifaceted role like mother, wife, daughter, care taker and even bread winner of the family. Though Amitav Ghosh women are not prosperous in their married life, they take leading role and prominent position in the society. Writers of various periods reflect the role of women characters of their period. The contemporary writers recognized the womanhood quite clearly; Raja Rao recreates the image of women in his novel The Serpent and the Rope as, “Women is the earth, air, ether sound, the knowing in the knowledge; women is fire, movement, clear and rapid as the mountain stream ; women is that which seeks against that which is sought” (357). Women are portrayed as the preserver of home and protector of culture, but at the same time women suffer and struggle, rebel and accept the reality. Amidst all this she struggles to keep-up her own identity. These are the outward portrayal of women. The shift to a portrayal of the inner psyche of women started with Anita Desai and Shashi Deshpande “who probed into the behavioral patterns, focusing on the factors that account for their unconventional actions” (P Shailaja and G Manoj 7).
