A STUDY OF ABJECTION IN FERYAL ALI GAUHAR’S AN ABUNDANCE OF WILD ROSES

Abstract

This study investigates objects and actions that make the individuals especially female individuals fearful and uncomfortable by examining Feryal ali Gauhars An Abundance of Wild Roses through julia Kristeva’s theory of abjection. The concept of abjection by Julia kristeva appears when exclusion among individuals’ shape’s identity, authority, and moral order. The concept of abjection helps the communities to stay united without external threats and horror of society.  Theory of abjection focuses on the fearful events in the text like wounded strangers, rebellious women, and damaged nature which release horror among individuals. These individuals disrupt stability. They are not completely accepted and not rejected in the whole text.  They remind about vulnerability and mortality. This study also examines patriarchal, religious and environmental issues through the theory of abjection by Julia Kristeva. It shows how the text uses abjection as an important theme. In the text sympathy for others becomes limited because some lives are seen as less valuable. Silence and repression in society create more suffering instead of solving problems. The research argues that the text criticizes social, religious, and patriarchal systems. These systems make cruelty appear normal because they treat certain lives as unimportant or not worthy of mourning. The study also suggests that the text encourages readers to think again about sympathy, responsibility, empathy, and peaceful coexistence in a society that shaped fear and exclusion.
