Abstract:

This paper examines the contributions of Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain’s Sultana’s Dream in awakening the consciousness of women. Also, this paper explores how Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain’s feminist ideology has led to the development and transformation of women and enabled women to achieve education and become independent and successful. By challenging the existing norms and practices that had hindered the progress and growth of women, she came forward by establishing schools and organizations to promote women’s education and their participation in the public sphere. However, these actions and practices made Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain a visionary feminist who foresaw the need for education and empowerment for women.
