Abstract

A new way of thinking about societal issues might emerge among writers when social problems are taken into consideration as one of the most essential challenges facing everyone. Some western artists and playwrights subtly tackled this subject in their artistic works, such as plays, in light of the prevalence of combating oppression against women in western civilizations in the 20th century and the absence of social fairness in these nations. These elements contributed to the term "feminism" emerging, which has been used both implicitly and overtly in recent decades.
