Dedication
Robert Muller dedicated First Lady of the World to his late wife, Margarita Gallo. Gallo was a former intern whom Muller met when he was also an intern at the United Nations. During her lifetime, Gallo fought for the rights of women while connected to the United Nations' Commission for Women's Rights, which is a functional commission of the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). The ECOSOC is one the main organs of the United Nations. It evaluates the progress on gender equality, apart from identifying challenges in promoting gender equality and the advancement of women. It is the Commission that formulates and sets the international standards policies for gender equality. By being a part of the Commission, she was able to work with two important figures at the time, namely Eleanor Roosevelt and Gabriella Mistral.[3] Eleanor Roosevelt was the First Lady of the United States from 1933 to 1945 and the wife of former US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, while Gabriella Mistral was a Chilean diplomat, poet, and feminist who became the first Latin American to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1945.Characters
The main characters in First Lady of the World include Lakshmi Narayan, Robert Muller (the character), and Sri Chimnoy. Lakshmi Narayan is a woman from India who became a representative of the country to the United Nations. She is a practitioner of Hinduism, a religion that is predominant and indigenous in the Indian Subcontinent. In the novel, Narayan becomes the first female Secretary-General of the United Nations. As a devout believer of Hinduism, Narayan was able to convert her husband - An American businessman - into her religion. Dedicated to her faith, Narayan shows her devotion to the Hindu gods by worshipping their images, even while inside the building of the United Nations headquarters in New York City.[2] Robert Muller incorporates himself as a character in the novel. Muller portrayed himself as the adviser to Narayan while executing her role as UN Secretary-General. Muller, the character, particularly gives advise to Narayan regarding the goal of attaining peace around the world by the year 2010. Global peace can be achieved through the so-called World Peace Plan,[4] which is also referred to as "Peace Plan 1992-2010".[5]Plot
The setting of the First Lady of the Word is set in the year 1992. During that year a female diplomat from India, Lakshmi Narayan, became the first woman to become Secretary-General of the United Nations. Narayan, as UN Secretary-General, becomes the leader of all the members of the international organization. Narayan becomes the proponent for an envent known as the Millenium Moment - also known as the Bimillennial Event - after being inspired by a national from France.[6][6] The Millenium Moment or Bimillenial Event is an event that will foster worldwide celebrations in the year 2000 for the goal of "achieving peace and happiness among all human beings on earth".[7] There is a scene in the novel when Narayan addresses the General Assembly of the United Nations, proclaiming the advent of the "cosmic age, the age of total union with the universe and God."[2] The Millenium Moment is preceded by the revival of the United Nations' plans for 2000 and after. Other events happened prior to the Millenium Moment, including the end of the arms race during the middle of the 1990s, the creation of the World Peace Service – a service for the poor of the world. Providing service to poor people of the world is suggested as the alternative, instead making young people serve for the military. By 1998, a World Constitutional Assembly is held in Philadelphia in the United States for the purpose of creating a World Constitution by 1999. The World Constitution will fulfill the dreams heralded by George Washington, the first president of the United States, and by Simon Bolivar, a political and military leader from Venezuela, a country in South America. Bolivar was one of the key players during Latin America's successful struggle for independence from the Empire of Spain. The climax for the First Lady of the World is reached when the whole world celebrates the Millenium Moment in 2000, as humanity enters a New Age – a "new planetary age of cooperation and fulfillment".[6]Analysis
Jay Gary (also known as "The Millenium Doctor"), author of The Star of 2000, includes Robert Muller's First Lady of the World as one of the "quasi-spiritual novels in recent years" that molded "utopian or disutopian" stories around celebrations that was held in the year 2000.[8]See also
