Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In recent decades, stylistics research has led to a lot of growth. One of the branches and fields of stylistics is the study of female"s intellectual style and writing. In some women"s novels, even written by female writers, although the main characters are female, but with a negative attitude, they emerge in the form of a lower intellectual and cultural level than men, and in these novels, it has been talked about against women, with the production of superstitions and negative imagination. In this study, the main purpose is to investigate the negative feelings of contemporary female writers towards female personality in the intellectual style of Shahrnoush Parsipour Moniro Ravanipour.

METHODOLOGY: This research has been done in a descriptive-analytical manner using the method of intellectual stylistics. The samples were randomly selected from the two authors.

FINDINGS: The production of superstitions against women, the negative feelings of female characters towards each other in the novel, and the horizontal violence against each other, contrary to feminist theories, in order to strengthen the power of patriarchy in the novels in question, have been clearly considered by the authors.

CONCLUSION: In the novels of Shahrnoush Parsipour Moniro Ravanipour, the main characters are women but women have less education and social and cultural activities than men, and their most important concern is trivial issues. The intellectual level of some contemporary writers, including Shahrnoush Parsipour Moniro Ravanipour is influenced by the prevailing discourse, the same patriarchal discourse, in a way, regression about women can be found in their works
