Abstract

This article presents an ecofeminist exploration of Gulnaz Kosar's Urdu poetry collection, Maya, through the intersecting lenses of ecocriticism and existentialist feminism. Unpacking the embodied experiences of women in relation to the natural world, Kosar's poetry reveals the interconnectedness of ecological degradation, social injustice, and feminist struggles. This study examines how Maya articulates an existentialist ecofeminist perspective, reconfiguring traditional notions of nature, culture, and identity. The analysis highlights Kosar's unique poetic style and its implications for feminist environmentalism, social justice, and Urdu literature.
