المستخلص

Feminist theory is the intellectual, philosophical and sociological framework of feminism. In order to understand gender inequality, the feminist theory focuses on gender politics, power relations, and sexuality. The major goal of feminist movements is to improve women's social status. Women began their protest by claiming that they were paid less than men; since then, women have learned that the issue is far beyond poor wages, but also low social positions. One of the feminist criticism concerns is the view of women as writers and creators of literary work. In this regard, feminist critics disagree regarding how female writers handle their writings. The applied approach in this study is the debate between Virginia Woolf and Elaine Showalter. For Woolf, androgynous thinking is normal and necessary; for Showalter, it is submissive and humiliating. Woolf seeks a fair judgment for both men and women while Showalter seeks stronger resolve and views towards feminist issues. This thesis examines how Emily Dickinson and Fadwa Tawqan alternate between employing androgynous and feminist language. Furthermore, this thesis examines whether they planned to utilize direct or indirect language in each feminist concept they sought to convey.
