THE IDEA OF FEMINISM IN FAY WELDON’S PRAXIS

Öz

Fay Weldon, as a feminist writer, reflects the problems of women in patriarchal societies by referring to the conflicts between women and men. She criticizes the prejudice of the male-dominated society against women and underlines the necessity to eliminate the oppression imposed upon the female and to change the perspective of society towards women. In this sense, in her novel Praxis, Weldon explores the unexplored about the female identity and the struggles of women with society. The protagonist, Praxis, and the other female characters, portray the sufferings of women under the control of the male-dominated society. Thus, the importance freedom and equality in the lives of women is stressed through the experiences of Praxis and her relationship with the patriarchal society. The aim of this article is to emphasize how Weldon questions the secondary position of women and how she encourages women to challenge repression and restrictions exercised by the patriarchal societythrough her female characters in her novel
