520 #3 - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. The Nobel prize winner (2007), Doris May Lessing (1919-2013) shows <br/>special attention to the injustice that is inflicted by men upon both women and <br/>nature. Her multicultural upbringing allowed her to gain a special connection with <br/>nature via her intuitive instinct. This thesis aims at exploring these patriarchal <br/>tactics that are put in action to subdue women and nature to exploit them. Hence, it <br/>demonstrates that this code of behaviour creates a dystopian reality as conveyed by <br/>Lessing in the three selected novels. This dissertation also investigates Lessing’s <br/>proposed spiritual solutions to overcome this impasse that also empower her <br/>female protagonists. In the same manner, it detects ecofeminist tendencies in <br/>Lessing’s selected novels that are associated with Gaia hypothesis, which suggests <br/>a new way to look at life on earth. This research focuses on three novels by <br/>Lessing namely, The Golden Notebook (1962), The Four-Gated City (1969) and <br/>The Memoirs of a Survivor (1974) that are to be tackled within the theoretical <br/>frame of ecofeminism and Gaia. The methodology used in this thesis will be based <br/>on ecofeminist and Gaian approaches that perceive earth as a community of beings, <br/>in which all living organisms are equal. The two schools of thought depend on <br/>emotions and spirituality to ensure survival on earth; and thus, they subvert the <br/>patriarchal narrative, which is echoed in Lessing’s selected novels. This research <br/>will rely on primary sources such as Lessing’s selected novels, interviews, and <br/>related writings. Major books on ecofeminism by D’Euabonne, Gaard, Griffin, <br/>Merchant, Mies, among others, and on Gaia by Lovelock and Margulis will be <br/>under study as well. It will also rely on articles published in databases and <br/>academic journals based on the primary sources.
