Abstract

Women are inherently artistic. Women and literature are closely related to each other because it requires a lot of artistic creativity to be good at literature and women are too good when it comes to artistic creativity. Women novelists from India are the ones to add a new dimension to the English literature of India. The current Indian English literature is due to the effort of many prolific writers. The best part is that most of these writers are women. Common examples include Sarojini Naido, Nayantara Sehgal, and Rama Mehta at the time, when novels were not so popular in the world of literature, women writers in India used to create lyrics for songs, write short stories, and small plays too.


Profound literary personalities believe that women writers were the ones who supported the old tradition of narrating tales in India. In the 19th century, more women became English writers, and as time went on, women writers were able to inculcate the emotions of ladies in their writings. This had a great impact on the language patterns of Indian literature.


Women writers introduced new styles in Indian writing, and such novels have become very popular among Indian readers these days. The work of the women writers has not been given its due importance in the past, most probably due to male chauvinism. In the past, the basic subject matter of women writers was the feelings of a woman while she is confined in the walls of a house, while the main authors used to write on vibrant themes. So, the work of male authors was able to collect more praise from the readers. Indian Nation In the last century, the readers acknowledged the work of women writers as a strong way to spread modernism and feminist statements. In the past 20 years, there has been remarkable progress when we talk about feminist writings in Indian literature. In today’s generation, women writers are wealthier and are foreign qualified too.
