The Emergence of New Woman in Toru Dutt’s Savitri

Abstract

The New Woman is a modern term that opens its door ajar for penetration of those women, who have been acquiring the submissive position throughout the decade, to transform themselves anew. This 19^th century’s ray of hope radiates everywhere and Indian culture is not also exceptional. The idea of the modern women receives its content into the pens of Indo-Anglican writers and the purpose of this paper is to present this concept of new woman through the poem of Toru Dutt.
