The study of women in literature begin to surface along with gender concerns. They are unique figures, resilient, superior, and brilliant, no wonder that many works in the literature space have researched women from many perspectives. The establishment of a women’s study focus in institutions marks a rise in the number of studies about women.
Keeping gender issues stronger has been a widespread impact on consciousness among literary observers, which is why women for a long time have been marginalized figures. In many ways, women are subordinated. Their position in society is seen as lower than that of man. Women are considered as the second sex, the second-class population, and this is also the case in the world of literature. The works of female authors are less calculated, but their work is no less important than the works of male authors. Both traditional works of literature and views about humans in literary works generally reflect an imbalance that marginalizes the role of women
Literary rationale from a feminist point of view is an attempt to understand the role of women as reflected in literary works: the position and role of women figures is still dominated by men; women figures in literary works are left behind men; there is a perception that the relationship between men and women is based on mere biological and socioeconomic considerations; the birth of literary research with a feminist perspective; and many consider the role and position of women to be lower than that of man. Those reviews will be reviewed through a study of literature from a feminist perspective.
The image of women in her relationship with other humans is drawn as a figure who is easy to affiliate with, willing to be consulted, wise and emphatic, has a loving family, appreciates others, and is humble. Meanwhile the woman image according to the thought and culture from the five countries considers that women also have a role that is essential in life.
