| Abstract | ||
| This paper employs Lazar's Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis (FCDA) to examine the Egyptian literary text Professor Hanaa, providing a nuanced exploration of gender dynamics, power struggles, and cultural norms. The narrative focuses on the relationship between Professor Hanaa and Khaled, highlighting the ways in which gender, power, and desire are intricately negotiated within a socio-cultural and religious context. Through their interactions, the text reveals how patriarchal ideologies, religious beliefs, and cultural expectations influence individual behaviours and decision-making processes. The characters navigate these influences through emotional manipulation, superstition, and adherence to societal norms, with Hanaa using feminine strategies of control while Khaled grapples with his internal conflict between personal desires and cultural values. This analysis underscores how gendered power relations are both reproduced and contested, offering valuable insights into the complexities of gender roles in contemporary Egyptian literature. The study ultimately sheds light on the ongoing negotiation of power and identity in patriarchal contexts, highlighting both resistance and complicity within evolving societal structures. | ||
