Feminine Writing As A Minority Literature
Kang Min Gun
Abstract
With Spivak’s term “subaltern” the purpose of this paper is to present arelationship between post-colonialism and feminism in Irish literature, and todemonstrate the feminine images represented in modern Irish contemporary texts.The Irish literary society tends to regard the minority women as the inferior one inthe process of de-colonization. But the feminie writing is try to overcome theestablished attitude in post-colonial literature. At this juncture, Heaney, rather thanfocusing on particular events from colonialism to post-colonialism, concentratesprimarily on the receptivity, remembering subaltern’s life, history, territory, andtongue of native women. His writing is not from the post-colonial literary traditionbut from the native receptivity toward the women's life and its reality. Finally,through the reception of the feminine writing with the appropriated de-colonialwriting, we should address “the women” represented in post-colonial text as thesubaltern subjectivity.
