| الوصف: | This paper, titled "Binary Oppositions in Margaret Atwood's The Edible Woman," comprises two integral sections: a theoretical framework and an applied study. The theoretical framework delves into the concept of binary oppositions through a structuralist lens, providing a comprehensive definition and understanding within the realm of literary analysis. In the applied study, the focus narrows to Atwood's 1969 novel, The Edible Woman. Here, the analysis scrutinizes the contrasting dichotomies woven throughout the characters, narrative, and writing style of the novel. By dissecting these opposing elements, the study uncovers profound layers of meaning and underscores the inherent tension and complexity within the text. In The Edible Woman, various pairs of characters are utilized by the author to explore contrasting dynamics and themes, particularly related to identity, gender roles, and societal expectations. Furthermore, the distinctive narrative structure plays a pivotal role in conveying the evolving psychological state of the protagonist, Marian. A striking symbol of her transformation and shifting mental state is found in the contrasting depictions of her two trips to the supermarket. The marked differences in language and style employed to describe these outings serve to accentuate Marian's profound character evolution, her passage from confusion and loss to regained identity and clarity. |
