ESSAY ON: Kate Chopin/Emotions of Women

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: An 8 page essay that analyzes four stories by nineteenth century author Kate Chopin: "The Story of an Hour," "Ripe Figs," "A Respectable Woman," and "The Storm." The writer argues that Chopin, as a nineteenth century woman, focused her writing on the emotional experience of the women of her era. While many of these problems concern the severe societal expectations and restrictions under which women operated during the Victorian era, other aspects of her writing are more universal, relating to the emotions of women, their longings and their sexuality. By presenting her own unique focus, Chopin portrayed a vision of womanhood that provides a sharp contrast to the desexualized, stoic ideal of her era. No additional sources cited.
