The Collection of Women’s Stories gathers 39 short stories from the period 1907-1947, authored by women. This work analyses 4 stories that deal with what may be broadly understood as violence against women and their duties and prohibitions within the traditional system. The stories are created in a realistic spirit, often with a didactic element since they were written in a period marked by a dire need for ideas of reformation, clearly present in Hindi literature. They mainly deal with women from the middle and upper classes, but we also find stories about the lower classes. This work attempts to trace the individual types of heroines that we can find in the stories and tries to prove the social and ideological value that they may have contributed to the social situation improvement, especially of women, in the period before India’s independence.
