Premium Kate Chopin The Awakening Fiction
Bailey Weber Todoran Period-8 3/4/12 Kate Chopin Many people look at Kate Chopin’s writing as all one sided for womens’ rights. The idea of her being a woman and wanting gender equality blinds people about a more important message. This message is that all people have faults about them and that some men can be strong and some can be weak‚ and the same goes for women. Humans‚ more or less human nature itself‚ have many flaws about them. Kate Chopin uses figurative language to create a main character

The Awakening by Kate Chopin Memo 1 In my own humble opinion‚ I believe that The Awakening by Kate Chopin is more about escape than a feminist agenda. Edna seems to feel trapped in the social confines of society at the time. Throughout the first half of the book there are plenty of examples of this. To name a few‚ Edna talks about when she was growing up in Kentuckey‚ she would wade through the tall grass instead of growing to church. Another example of the theme of escape being prevalent in the
