Abstract

In academic literature, the word empowerment first came onto the scene with regards to civil rights. The term really took off with literature discussing empowerment of marginalized peoples, such as women and the poor. For example, in 1983 the Women’s Studies international forum discussed empowerment of women in “Power and Empowerment.” From then until now, the literature has increasingly been focused on these issues. The key focus of the paper thus remains literature and empowerment. Key Words: women, empowerment, literature, English literature Policy
