“The Awakening” Edna Pontellier’s action in the novel “The Awakening” by Kate Chopin‚ could be justified as her being selfish and unjustified in her actions. The story’s romanticism changes the outlook of Edna to being an admirable character‚ in many ways. She emancipated herself from her restraints and achieved nearly all that she desired. Chopin could have used this book to glorify the women of this age‚ but because of the time period and life styles‚ most of what was referred to in the story

In Kate Chopin’s The Awakening‚ the author frames the notions of freedom and responsibility by contrasting them within an opposing dichotomy portrayed through the main character‚ Edna Pontellier‚ and through her subconscious denial of Creole responsibility while attaining freedom for her body‚ mind‚ and soul.

I guess they had to tell Ms Mallard

Using The Awakening and Glotfelty’s definition of ecocriticism
