Abstract

This article explores the influence of Feminist postcolonial perspectives within the framework of colonial space, particularly in regions of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia influenced by British and American colonization. The concept of "colonial space" in this context refers to establishing Western feminist colonies among Saudi women within the narrative of space exploration in novels. The study reveals that this notion is scrutinized in speculative works, where authors exercise creative freedom in placing characters within fictional settings. Postcolonial feminists argue that women in the Saudi palace experience oppressive and unequal treatment compared to men, experiencing both personal and institutional discrimination. They assert that the structure of this space predominantly favors men over women. The research findings suggest that Western postcolonial feminist works intentionally feature palace family figures to persuade and engage readers globally, influencing their perspectives.
