This text examines the images of women in the works of selected Yoruba male authors. These authors are grouped into three: the early writers, the middle course writers and the latest writers. A general assessment of the importance of women and their limitations within the socio-cultural and religious set up of the Yor?b? society is initially undertaken. The study also analyses the various techniques that are used to depict such feminine images in the works.
