Title

TRANSFORMATION OF WOMEN FROM SILENCE TO SPEECH IN THE PATRIARCHIAL SOCIETY IN SHASHI DESHPANDE'S THAT LONG SILENCE

Abstract

Deshpande portrays Jaya, a married, educated woman, in That Long Silence. She should be able to apply her critical thinking and analytical abilities as a writer to demonstrate the issues and paradoxes in society in her work. She must give in to pressure from her family and society for this to not happen, however, for a number of reasons. She is compelled to write what patriarchal society wants to read or hear because she is unable to say or write what she feels like saying or writing. She is educated, but she says nothing about the injustices that have been done to her. In the book, not only Jaya but also the other female characters—mother, Jaya’s grandmother, cousin Kusum, her widowed next-door neighbour Mukta, and the women in general—are all represented as being women. Deshpande continues by demonstrating the important roles that family preaching and practises, as well as the social milieu, play in this. As Jaya has time to consider the events in her life, she is faced with a choice between what to do and what not to do. This essay aims to analyse the causes of Jaya’s crisis in particular and the suffering of women generally while also taking into account the comments and observations made by other critics and theorists. It also demonstrates how Jaya, the archetype of contemporary women, overcomes her victimisation and crisis and ends her protracted silence.
