The purpose of feminist criticism is to object
patriarchal assumptions about women and to respond to the masculine
determination of what is feminine. To begin with, feminist literary criticism
tries to describe and analyze woman’ s social, economic, political and
psychological condition within literary texts and literary canon. In addition to interpreting masculine
discourse, feminist criticism aims to resist and challenge the dogmas apparent
in male dominant doctrines. It can be said that feminist criticism has a wide
range of meaning including the attitudes to literature as well as culture in
the sense of the interest in women. Feminist criticism can be identified as the
quest for equality among sexes and an attack against the claim that womanhood
is a secondary and even an inferior situation. Although the particular word
‘feminism’ was first used in 1890 by French philosopher Charles Fourier, women’s resistance to patriarchy and clergy
goes back to Middle Ages which often portrayed women as Eve, a seductress who
caused the fall of humankind and denounced women for constantly attempting to
distract men from the way of God. As such, in the present paper, I would like
to bring an approach to the early roots of misogyny, a brief history Feminist
Criticism and finally comment on Nina Baym’ s article The Madwoman and Her
Languages.
