It scrutinizes ecofeminism as a transformative philosophy addressing environmental and gender-based subjugation. By analyzing the historical roots of patriarchal control over nature and women and advocating for a gender-sensitive ecological ethic, the study argues that ecofeminism offers an altruistic remedy to social, environmental and cultural crises. Drawing on the work of Vandana Shiva, Carolyn Merchant and Maria Mies, and some other poets, this paper examines how an understanding of gender roles, particularly women's traditional ecological knowledge and caring labour, can move humanity from exploitative behavior to regenerative cooperation. Thus, ecofeminism emerges as both critique and remedya path from domination to empathy. Focusing on eco-grief or climate-grief, this paper will anticipate both micro and macro ecological interventions, where the dichotomy of exploitation and altruism will be the primary concerns. This research paper enhances the understanding of ecofeminism by defining appropriate definition of gender also incorporates some principles of feminism, aiming to provide support for women.

They cried and sought medical help. In the end, they are powerless to outwit death. Everybody encounters minor obstacles in life. However, when these minor problems combine to form a big problem, such as a mental disorder, in this case, the individual finds himself in a lot of difficulties and thinks that the only option left is to commit suicide. But, if a writer is afflicted with an illness or other issue, all he needs is a pen and paper to assuage his suffering and immortalize his words for all eternity. Nevertheless, he still suffers from his condition. Numerous problems entered his life. Even though no one can comprehend them, they hold onto hope no matter what. Some tried to live, and some committed suicide, but all they left was great work. In addition to outlining a condition's drawbacks, a writer may also discuss its positive aspects. They produced literary masterpieces, providing them with immortality with their fantastic touch. We have witnessed the early deaths of several of our literary figures, which was a loss to literature. This paper examines the writings of the Adynatus writers who suffered from some psychological disorders. Psychological stress can arise in any way and can grow to any extent. It can arise from physical deformity (where any person has negatively exaggerated their physical deformity to the maximum level) or it can be a combination of multiple anxiety disorders. Any writer's works reflect the impact of his life experiences, and this experience goes even deeper if a writer is suffering from a disease.

attention on gender as a crucial element woven into the theoretical
framework, it is imperative to grasp the expectations associated with the
term gender, and it involves understanding the anticipated roles and attributes
linked to the term ‘Gender’ and acknowledging its multifaceted diversity.
The objective of this paper is to explore the responsibilities that men and
women and third gender play in establishing a distinctive stability defined
by social norms. In this context, distinctive stability refers to a balance
between present needs and future requirements of society. The paper proposes
a middle-ground approach that reconciles against dichotomous gender
perspective to build a sustainable framework and find a new array to the
ideal society. It sheds light on gender-related social issues and examines
resources from diverse fields to empower individuals. This research paper
will also concentrate on essential key terms such as equality, diversity, the
environment, and Ecofeminism, among others. These terms require
investigation by establishing distinct connections and examining their
impacts on social sustainability. This research aims to identify the obstacles
that prevent any gender from fulfilling their societal roles, ultimately resulting
in social unsustainability. A comprehensive study of social sustainability
necessitates an exploration of the elements that contribute to social
unsustainability, and this paper will explore those elements.

prehistory, literature and the arts have been drawn to portrayals of physical
environments and human-environment interactions. Along with the development
of man, the synergy between environment and literature has been getting Stronger.
Just as the painting done on the walls by primitive man reflects the literature of that
time, in the same way, the modernization of today can be seen in the works of
modern writers. The Environment has contributed to the fundamental development
of literature. Although man is still completely unable to understand the
environment yet we can say that human beings have made great progress. So, I want
to say that the 1960s gave rise to a rich array of fictional and nonfictional writings
concerned with humans changing relationship with the natural world. since early
2021, however, the long-standing interest in literature studies on these matters
generated the initiative most commonly known as “Ecocriticism”. In this paper, I am
telling about my research topic 21st-century environment and Literature, I will start my
paper from the views of some writers who love nature then I will come to 21st-century
literature.
Keywords: Ecocriticism, environmental studies, Literature and Environment,
Human- Environment relationship.

Writers have explained the Definition of poetry. Still, it becomes dynamic when we come across another age of literature, where another writer adds a new branch to the previous one or creates a new one. Poetry seems like thought, and thoughts are always changeable; often, these thoughts come from the experience of life, making a new door for the next idea and so on continues. This paper attempts to critically analyze and compare several literary writers' definitions of poetry.

For many decades, Women have been treated as marginalized communities due to their body structure, which men think is their weakness. This paper focuses on the connection between nature and women and proves that women's participation in nature improves the community and society far better than in a male-dominated society. The patriarchal system limits the resources for women, such as "education", "land", "food", etc. This paper takes women and nature as a unity and highlights the social fields in patriarchal thinking where women are oppressed. However, they can play a significant role in improving that area.
