Abstract

    The tale "The The Bull and She Devil" by Zaibunnisa Hamidullah focuses on the experiences of people who are that are oppressed and marginalized by social structure, echoing the concept of subalternity as conceived in the work of Antonio Gramsci. This study explores how this story exposes voice of the subaltern, describing the difficulties and obstacles that people of lower status. Based on an analysis based on Gramsci's theories, this research explores the experiences of the characters as they struggle to resist the hegemonic power structures. Abstracts also highlight that the tale shows the desire of the marginalized of empowerment and agency even though they are enslaved by the dominant society forces.
