Abstract
The thesis focuses on the issues related to postcolonialism and feminism, delving into their interconnections and areas of mutual interest. The study also explores the obstacles faced by immigrant women living in Western nations. It takes a postcolonial and feminist perspective to analyze three plays by Rahul Varma, a South Asian Canadian playwright: Counter Offence (1996), No Man’s Land (1993), and Truth and Treason (2007). The main objective of this thesis is to analyze the problems inherent in postcolonialism and feminism, while spotlighting their collaboration based on shared concerns and goals. This thesis is divided into four chapters, with an introduction at the beginning and a conclusion at the end. Additionally, there is a list of works cited. Chapter one focuses on establishing the theoretical framework, postcolonial and feminist approaches, that serves as the basis for the entire thesis. Chapter two sheds light on the complexities of racial discrimination, an abusive behavior, and a domestic violence in Counter Offence. The concept of racism is portrayed to highlight the prejudice and discrimination that certain racial groups face, while domestic violence is depicted to illustrate the harmful dynamics and power imbalances within familial relationships. Chapter three, No Man’s Land, confronts the challenges of exploitation, inequality, and racial prejudice. This play tackles the issues of mistreatment, unfairness, and discriminatory attitudes based on race. Chapter four explores the complexities of war, corruption, racism, and the concept of otherness in Truth and Treason play. The play deals with the challenges posed by armed conflict, unethical behavior, racial bias, and the perception of individuals as others, The conclusion sums up the results of the research.
