内容説明・目次
内容説明
"Sultana's Dream and Padmarag" are boldly provocative works, particularly in the context of the era that spawned them. Written in English in 1905, "Sultana's Dream" is a delightful satirical work set in Ladyland, where men are in purdah and women firmly in charge of home and government. Published in 1924 and translated here for the first time, Padmarag complements "Sultana's Dream" in its espousal of women's personal journeys towards emancipation. Resonant with autobiographical undertones, the novella is both a powerful indictment of male oppression and a celebration of Rokeya's faith in a universalist society where women, regardless of race, class, creed and religion, reject the diktat of a tyrannical patriarchal society in favour of a life devoted to improving their lot.
