This paper employs Lazar's Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis (FCDA) to examine the

Egyptian literary text Professor Hanaa, providing a nuanced exploration of gender dynamics,

power struggles, and cultural norms. The narrative focuses on the relationship between

Professor Hanaa and Khaled, highlighting the ways in which gender, power, and desire are

intricately negotiated within a socio-cultural and religious context. Through their interactions,

the text reveals how patriarchal ideologies, religious beliefs, and cultural expectations influence

individual behaviours and decision-making processes. The characters navigate these influences

through emotional manipulation, superstition, and adherence to societal norms, with Hanaa

using feminine strategies of control while Khaled grapples with his internal conflict between

personal desires and cultural values. This analysis underscores how gendered power relations

are both reproduced and contested, offering valuable insights into the complexities of gender

roles in contemporary Egyptian literature. The study ultimately sheds light on the ongoing

negotiation of power and identity in patriarchal contexts, highlighting both resistance and

complicity within evolving societal structures.
