Showalter has tried to study the various aspects of feminists criticisms while also pointing out the aims it should be trying to attain, the problem it faces and also the reasons for the problem.
Showalter shows out that feminist criticism is revisionist being dependent on the male creativity theory. For example the creative works and interpretations produced on the basis of male experience.
According to Shawalter there are two modes of feminist criticism, she calls the first one ''feminist reading'' or ''feminists critique'' which is concerned to the reading of texts to understand the image of woman in literature and to work out the belief and stereotypes concerned to woman highlighted and publicized by literary text.
Showalter gynocriticism refers to a kind of criticism with woman as a writer/ producer of textual meaning, as against woman as reader.
Gynocriticism focuses on woman subjectivity, female language and female literacy career and it attempts to construct a female framework for the analysis of literature.
The main concern of gynocriticism is are to identify what are taken to be distinctively feminine subject matter in literature written by women , to uncover the literary history of woman tradition and to show that there is a distinctive feminine mode experience or subjectivity in thinking, valuing, perceiving oneself and the outer world.
