Abstract: Most of the tribal states of the North East region in India have rich tradition of oral literature. Folk Tales are one of the forms of literature that are found in abundance in this region. They depict the life, culture and tradition of the people. In many of the folktales of the Mising community, the representation of women is placed in stark contrast to the traditional folk tales where women characters play passive roles in the stories. But in the folk tales of the Mising tribe, the role of women, their identity and their power positions have an impact factor in men-women relationships. Another important feature in the folk tales of the Mising Tribe is that Nature is often compared to women who is powerful and can sustain itself in many forms. So the issues of decision making, standing for equal treatment, fight for dignity and to sustain oneself are some of the major themes found in Mising folk tales that are in concordance with feminist ideologies. The paper tries to highlight the representation of women characters in Mising folk tales-‘Lighting &Thunder’,Karpunpuli’ and ‘Origin of the Sago Palm’ from a feminist perspective where the women are depicted as strong individuals who can question the patriarchal norms and emerge as equals and sustain themselves.
Keywords: Misings, Folktales, Feminist Perspectives, Nature, Culture & Society.
