Global analysis of female literary identity, health and equal opportunities

We now have the article "literary analysis of female global identity, health and equal opportunities" by Teresa L. Hagan, BSN, BA, RN, and Susan M. Cohen, present Ph.D., APRN. This article summarizes the stories of four women protagonists of the popular similarities between their personal experiences and suggestions contextualized novels identify. Based on their analysis, they provide the movement of ordinary women of domination and liberation of separation and connection in modern health practices that join on shared decision making, focus open communication, and social activism

Dr. Hagan has shared this message SNA readers about his work with Dr. Cohen:

The study began when Dr. Cohen and I to do something we love - reading good books! How we choose our decisions, we wanted to take books provide women from different cultures, time periods and land. A classic novel like the maid Tale Margaret Atwood was an easy choice because of its popularity, and social commentary on gender issues. Then Angela Cisernos House Mango Street was a favorite of Dr. Cohen (and one later that I realized is standard reading for students). Lisa See Snow Flower and the Secret Fan was a popular film, and wanted the novel on which it is based to read. None of us had heard of a woman Nawal Saadawi from Ground Zero, but he was constantly cited as a fascinating story of life as a woman in Egypt.

When we started to compare the four novels, we saw an opportunity to explore these books carefully. If qualitative research is the systematic analysis of the texts, so why not also the text is literature? We brought the ideas of health equity and social determinants of health to global truths in the novels and its rich context reveals Mark. Our hope is that the reader (or have not read these four novels) believe that the experiences of the four main characters and how their stories are universal truths about the state of women's health.

Sometimes, art and literature give us a clearer picture of ourselves that reality. While dramatized stories, struggles and relationships described in these novels exaggerate the everyday experiences of women worldwide. If this article captures how women moved to give the voice of power connected, so we hope that these results are in turn translated by drama, reality.

This is an article of inspiration and creativity, the valuable information that nurses can develop practices to achieve health equity for women offers. Download your free copy of this article, as it seems, and return here to work with the authors in the discussion of his work!
