Abstract (EN)

This thesis delves into the portrayal of female agency and empowerment in the novels Circe by Madeline Miller and Medusa: The Girl Behind the Myth by Jessie Burton. Through a comparative analysis, the study offers a thought-provoking examination of how these literary works highlight individuals' transformative power in shaping their identities. It also explores through psychological perspectives, such as Carl Gustav Jung's and Jacques Lacan's concepts, how the protagonists of both novels overcome psychological constraints imposed by societal expectations.
