Studies on Jean Rhys have been fragmentary concentrating on one or two aspects of Rhys’s thematic concern with the alienation of the white creole without laying emphasis on Rhys’s exploration of the Creole’s identity. There has been no attempt to examine if the creole has to struggle harder and more than whites and blacks to come to terms with her personal identity until now. The answer is affirmative because the creole is a composite human being. Indeed, the white creole is the ‘fruit’ of a mixed union. Born into miscegenation, hybridity and creolization, the creole is physically, linguistically, socially and religiously a diverse human being. Within the scope of this paper, the term identity is used in a broad sense. The creole’s personal identity refers to the different identities the Creole can have at different times and in different circumstances. Correspondingly, she must negotiate the white and black elements of her identity. The Creole must deal with the complexity of her identity through a web of tangled relationships with both whites and blacks. Read from this light, the personal identity of the creole is not “either/ or,” but reluctantly “both/ and.” In various ways, the creole is an ‘Everyman.’ The Creole undergoes an awareness, and is eventually, redefined through the image of the ‘other.’ Indeed, her jump toward her black friend Tia reflects Rhys’s basic concern for a Caribbean society in which assimilation and personal identity must blend in a single humane goal, that is, to co-exist beyond the lines of race, gender, class and sex in order to avoid annihilation.

This study explores the framing of female politicians in the print media of Pakistan. Women cover over half of the population of Pakistan and with time they are actively participating in politics and have become increasingly visible in media as well. The study compares news stories in Urdu and English (Jang/Dawn) newspapers in terms of visibility, personalization, issue coverage and tone of story through quantitative content analysis over a time period of 6 months (1st June to 30th November 2019). The study concluded that female politicians receive less negative coverage in Pakistan as compared to western countries, where personal coverage is greater than issue based coverage. Comparative analysis of Urdu and English print newspapers showed that visibility and issue type vary in Jang and Dawn while personalization and tone of the story do not vary with the type of newspaper (Jang/Dawn).
