    GYNOCRITICISM Analysis in Trifles

    Uploaded by

    Ayu Isni
    The document summarizes Elaine Showalter's theory of gynocriticism, which is a feminist literary analytical approach that examines works written by and about women through a woman-centered lens. It outlines four main models of gynocriticism: (1) the biological model, which describes women's physical appearances in works; (2) the linguistic model, which analyzes the use of language by female characters; (3) the psychoanalytic model; and (4) the cultural model. The document then provides examples from the play "Trifles" to illustrate Showalter's biological and linguistic models of analysis.

    GYNOCRITICISM ANALYSIS
    IN
    TRIFLES
    Gynocriticism is a woman-
    centered way of approaching a
    literary work. It extends
    feminist theory by arguing that
    women have distinct
    DEFINITION experiences that require
    separate analytical tools for
    examining literature written by
    and about women.
