woman in the struggle for life. Substantiate​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

“The Farmer’s Wife” is about agony, frustration and challenges of a woman following the suicide of her farmer husband. This poem is also about changing the stereotype. A society that looks at a woman as a burden and disgrace is questioned. Male chauvinism is challenged by the poet. She targets this long-held view of patriarchy and its underlying liberties attached. However, she declares her commitment to live her life with “the harvest of her womb” determined to face the challenges. She vows to teach her children those values and skills of life which shall never let them think about cowardly measures when faced with challenges.
