Acknowledgement 
This dissertation represents the closing of the undergraduate years of my life. Nawshaba Ahmed, 
without her constant drive and support, I would have not been able to complete my dissertation. I 
thank all of my teachers, Firdous Azim, Rukhsana Rahim Chowdhury, Neeru Chakravertty, 
Roohi Huda, Mushira Habib, Mahmuda Akhter, Shenin Ziauddin, without your classes my 
thoughts about literature and linguistics would still be scattered. A special thank you to Shuchi 
Karim, without her lectures my perspective about feminism would never have matured. I extend 
my thanks to my mother for accompanying me in those sleepless nights and my father for 
remaining by my side always brothers Shafkat Hossain and Sayeed Hasan for providing me the 
technological support that I needed. And lastly Sumaya Ferdous, Anika Bushra, Anita Zeba 
Bakhtiar, Ernaz Rahman, Sabrina Mahzabin, Nafis Hasan Shamit and Samreen Tasdique for 
believing in me and supporting me when I doubted myself.
