| Abstract | ||||
| Abstract This research aims to investigate the utopian visions in three feminist science fiction novels: Mary E. Bradley Lane` Mizora, Charlotte Perkins Gilman`s Herland, and Joan Slonczewski`s A Door into Ocean. The purpose of this research is to highlight the utopian aspects in the three communities of the three novels. It, moreover, shows how the three writers dethrone men from their inherited positions and is directed to portray how women obtain a lot of skills and potentialities to build up their own castles alone without the assistance of men. The research, moreover, shows that the inhabitants of the three communities never dispense with the instinct of motherhood and highlights the importance of maternity by providing some progressive motherly guidelines which definitely help produce efficient and helpful generations. Thereafter, the thesis sheds light on the importance of women`s education as the basic step to liberate them. Then, it ends with directing readers to the strong co-relation between the ecological system and women which is called "ecofeminism." Accordingly, the three female novelists present three communities created by women and for women. | ||||
