This phenomenon also occurs in the Palestinian conflict, where narratives related to the resistance of Palestinian women are frequently overlooked. As a direct reflection of life, literary works capture the reality of Palestinian women’s resistance. Therefore, this research aims to expose the resistance of Palestinian women as reflected in an Arabic novel titled al-Ṭanṭūriyyah by Raḍwā ‘Āṣūr.
