dc.description.abstractAfrican women have always been subject to a patriarchal ideology that sought to undermine their value. Several researchers and scholars diagnosed the problems of african women and the typical images of those women in the works of the african male writers and westerners. Our research, however; attempts to break away with previous studies by investigating the representation of african women in art and literature. It is our intention in this study to draw an analogy between Eugene Delacroix's Painting and Assia Djebbar's novel Women of Algiers in their apartment. Our thesis rests on a number of assumptions. The first assumption is that Eugene's painting aims to represent Algerian women as sexual, silent, and obedient objects. The second assumption is that Assia Djebbar has been influenced by the painting of Eugene and her literary narrative comes as a response to Eugene's work. Our aim is to identify the type of relationship between Delacroix's painting and Djebbar's fiction.ar
