dc.description.abstract | The study critically analyses the position of women in selected Ruyankole folktales. The study was both field and library-based, employing a qualitative approach. The study used sociological theory to analyze data. The major tenet of the sociological theory is that literature is a reflective mirror of society and social realities. The position of women as depicted in folktales are a true reflection of people’s perceptions of women in Ankole society. The study findings reveal that women are portrayed as children, dim-wits, murderers, evil, unreliable, untrustworthy, and greedy. | en_US |
