Rewriting the Self: Feminist Identity Politics in Postmodern Literature

This paper explores the intersection of feminist identity politics and postmodern literature, examining how postmodern narrative strategies disrupt traditional constructions of the self and gender. By analyzing key texts from prominent postmodern feminist authors, the study illustrates how these works rewrite the notion of selfhood through fragmented, decentralized identities, thereby challenging patriarchal norms and enabling new feminist subjectivities. The paper also discusses the implications of such rewriting for feminist theory and broader socio-political discourses on identity.
