The production and the interpretation or evalua tion of literary worksrnhav ~ been going on hand in hand for a long time. As literary texts arerncommonly believed to reflect the realities of life and endorse a belief orrnsome ultimate truth which pertain to man's language, thoughts andrnexperiences, critics are a lso widely accepted as people whose goal is tornexplain the meanings embodied in literary works through employingrndifferent approaches or theories. But meaning has become a veryrncontroversial issue . Recent approaches, like deconstructive criticismrnclaim that all texts of all ages a re aphoris tic, undecidable, unreadablernand deconstruct themse lves. Accordingly, deconstructionists aim to showrnthat any literary p iece unavoidably undermines its own claim to have arnsingle and definite meaning. This mode of criticism argues that literaryrntexts which a re establis hed as feminist ones a lso undermine andrncontradict their own views and proj ects . It states that since such textsrncannot be out of word play, there is no fixed center and constant manrnover woman binary opposition.rnThis research, therefore, intends to examine the relationship between thernunderlying principles of deconstructive criticism and feminist thought ofrnliterary products with reference to the texts in focus . It mainly aims atrnexploring the plurality of discourse and the tentativeness, contradictionrnand plurality of meanings of the texts. However, in doing this , the studyrnwill not t ry to decon struct the texts, it ra ther attempts to show how therntexts deconstruct themselves.rnThe thesis is divided into fou r chapters. The introductory chapterrnjustifies the necessi'ty of conducting the research and articulates thernoverall content of the thesis. Cha pter two is literature review in which therngeneral theore tical framework of the study is es tablished: Mainly, itrndiscuses how developmen ts of critical theories have contributed to thernbirth of deconstructive criticism. In addition, Issues related torndeconstruction, feminism, pluralism and discourse are discussed.rnFollowing the litera ture review, interpretation and analysis of Woman atrnPoint Zero and God Dies by the Nile has been made in line with the majorrna rguments of deconstructive criticism. To be sure that the novels'rnideological projects have been identified and not just set U;:J an easyrntarget, it has been attempted to provide all the evidences the novels offerrnin support of the themes identified. Then, a close examination has beenrnma de to find ou t the competing n a ture of the overt major ideologies orrnthemes of the texts . This has been done through discourse analysis . Asrnthe explication has been u ndertaken based on textu al evidences, thisrnpart sets the ground to the concluding remarks of the research. The lastrncha p ter sums up the whole argument and draws conclusions based onrnthe major issues discussed. The findings of the research are a lso brieflyrnpointed out in this section .
