Rise Against Kyriarchy: Critical Examination of Imtiaz Dharker’s “A Century Later“
Abstract
The aim of this research paper is to investigate the way that Imtiaz Dharker has sketched her woman to rise and stand against kyriarchy in the poem "A century later." Since the rise of civilizations, women have been fighting against inequalities and economic, religious, and social disparities globally. There are various reasons for women's suppression such as, patriarchy, objectification, and kyriarchy, which would also serve as the foundation of our major analysis. Kyriarchy feeds the system of dominations under which individuals have some privileges. In the context of the poem, the notion of kyriarchy restricts women from pursuing education. Several studies have been conducted on women's harassment, divorce, abuse, and honor killing. The current study has examined the ways restrictions have been imposed on women's education. This research paper finds and concludes that a woman is inseparable from her right to be educated, independent, and self-determinant.
