dc.description.abstractThis thesis researches the question of how the dystopian genre influences the development of female power in Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and Suzanne Collins' Catching Fire. The analyses showed that the main character in The Handmaid’s Tale has a female power that is manifested in the form of speech and that this is an internalised power. Whereas the main character of Catching Fire has an externalised political power. Both of their powers are heavily influenced by the dystopian world they reside in.en_US
