#The lover duras citation full
Stories such as “ the dog and long winter”, “ tuba and the meaning of night”, “ free experiences”, “ women against women”, “ blue wisdom”, “ women without men”, “ heat in year zero” which are full of concerns of feminist and thoughts based on free thinking are the subject of discussion in this study. Shahrnoush Parsipour is among such writers who address woman's suffering and painful lives in their stories. These thoughts influence the majority of contemporary writers and have attracted their works as media tools. To struggle against inequalities, feminists believe in using available recent legal and political opportunities to change the situation, providing equal economical opportunities, changes in family and school, and mass media message.
According to feminist thoughts, women are free to live in any format of family structures including nuclear family and marriage, family without marriage… Writers and intellectuals who advocate this thought believe that in a marriage, all enjoyments and growth belongs to men and all backwards to women. Feminists insist on rejection of the role of women as mothers and wives as their duty generally, these bunch of feminists give less value to home and family unless the basis is female. They try to instill this belief that in marital relationships the most important role of men and women is not starting a family and childrearing, but what matter is the egotistic happiness and satisfaction. They represent an inappropriate and extreme theory about the same education for both men and women and the same social roles for both sexes not compatible with human nature (Alice, 2002:23). Feminist tendencies mainly were in opposition to the reform with the adoption of predefined roles for men and women in family and society. The writers of the Age of Enlightenment in Europe analyze human nature in the frame of “wise speculative the bourgeoisie” and their analysis was based on “persons” they analyzed any gender, race or ideology based on individualism humanism (Benhabib, 1995:35).
The origin of feminism thought dates back to 7 th and early 18 th century. Key words: Feminism, story, Shahrnoosh Parsipoor, Margarit Dorath The titles of both stories reflect concerns over the authors’ minds and explicitly represent feminist thought. The question is, what is the ideological and intellectual coordination that exists in Parsipour and Duras? The premise of this research is based on the attention given to “free love” and “magic realism” breaking the tradition and rebellion against women's status, challenging superstitious and baseless beliefs, protesting against women owning property, criticizing man-centered governing laws, accepting to be oppressed and humiliated by women in history, prostitution and women's fear and insecurity, encouraging women to acquire various sciences and considering men as a model by women are the same cases in stories of both writers. There are similarities in their works for reasons such as being a woman, being writer, being intellectual, living in 20 th century, being familiar with various approaches of feminism, experiencing Eastern life. Shahrnoush Parsipour and Marguerite Duras are both Iranian and French contemporary writers.
