Abstract:

The courtly love of language, the praising of dominant individuals, the capturing of language by class individuals, bounded the literature to come and serve for the general people. It was not only in case of English language but for the various surviving languages of the world. Starting with the Anglo-Norman period, the age of Chaucer, Elizabeth, the puritan and Restoration age, Neo-classical/Augustan age, the romantic, Victorian and modern age, English literature has faced the different stages of dawn and dusk of dominancy. The literature has always taken women s literary central theme. Present paper is an attempt to analyze the role of language in literature with an emphasis on feminism with global perspective.
