Abstract
Alice Walker prefers womanism to feminism precisely because it is rooted in all – inclusive female culture and does greater justice to all women irrespective of colour, class or creed. Moreover, womanism does full justice to the life, love and transcendence of black women. In fact the definition of the term, womanist locates the Black Woman first as a Black Feminist. Then it celebrates the sensuality and spirituality of the Black woman. Then it identifies her as the variegated flower in the garden of humanity. This research Paper attempts to delineate the Womanist Perspective in Meridian. The novel deals with a black woman's life as it discloses itself for self-realization and liberty.
