Bu makale Çerkes millî kimliğinin tanımlanmasında kadına biçilen rolü toplumsal cinsiyet kavramı altında ele almaktadır. Çerkes ve Çerkes üst kimliğine atıfta bulunan Abhaz ve Abaza yazarlar tarafından Türkçe yazılmış romanlara dayanarak millî kimlik tanımlamasında; kadına yüklenen görevler, “kültür taşıyıcısı olarak kadın” ve “ideal kadın” başlıklarını tartışmaktadır. Azınlık, sürgün ya da göçmen topluluklarda kadın tanımlamalarına eklemlenen eğitmen, geleneğin uygulayıcısı - koruyucusu ve hafıza mekânı rollerini irdelemekte bu rollerin kaynağını sorgulamaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra mitleşmiş “Çerkes güzeli” tanımlamasına toplumsal cinsiyet açısından yaklaşmakta, yaratılmış güzellerin edebiyata yansımasının izini sürmektedir.
