I chose my EE topic ‘To what extent were the Bengali writers able to bring women empowerment during the British period in Bengal (India)?’ based on my interest in women empowerment, British rule in India and the work done by the renowned Bengali authors. If I were to make any changes in my research question it would be ‘To what extent were the writers of Bengal influential to create awareness about women empowerment in India?’, since my research question made me restricted to women in the state of Bengal. The challenges that I faced during the process was that it took me a lot of time to finish reading both the book as the books were content-heavy and long. This left me with limited time to do my research. The other challenge I faced was managing time and prioritizing between schoolwork and EE. Though after planning and strategizing time I was able to successfully hand in my EE. Through EE I was exposed to different perspectives on the role of women in society, the role of literature in empowering the society and the role of women in society. This experience would be beneficial in the university in the future.
