This essay analyzes Anton Chekhov’s “The Lady with the Little Dog” (1899) and Joyce Carol Oates’s “The Lady with the Pet Dog” (1972) to examine how gendered subjectivity is shaped and redefined across two cultural contexts. Chekhov’s narrative privileges Gurov’s perception, presenting Anna through external focalization that ties her desire to shame. Oates overturns this asymmetry by granting Anna narrative authority through first-person voice and interior monologue, which allow her to articulate ambivalence and resistance. The study applies narratological and feminist perspectives alongside corpus-assisted stylistics, using sentence-length analysis and collocational evidence to show how syntax encodes asymmetries of gendered voice. Spatial metaphors–beaches, and cars–illustrate how mobility and confinement mark structures of power. By integrating close reading, digital methods, and feminist theory, the article demonstrates that Oates’s rewriting destabilizes patriarchal conventions and highlights the potential of adaptation to redefine narrative authority and female agency.
