Is Bad Weather an Excuse for Deceit? In the story “The Storm”‚ Kate Chopin plots a situation in which two people surrender to their physical desires. Chopin wrote fiction stories in the late 19th century. She was condemned due to the immorality presented in her work. At her times‚ woman was considered to be very innocent‚ and always faithful to her husband. In Chopin’s work one sees a totally different view of a woman’s behavior. She is not a popular writer of her era because of her crude works;

The plot of the story "The Storm" by Kate Chopin is a conventional everyday plot. The story would not be so interesting if it weren’t for the last line of the story; "So the storm passed and everyone was happy." What did she mean by the closing line? My interpretation of the story is that she meant the rocky part of both Calixta and Alcee’s marriage had passed along with the storm. Both Alcee and Calixta cheated on their spouse‚ however‚ they both knew that when the stor was over they would

The first time I read “fire and ice” by frost my first thought was it is about death. The poem starts of with what many people talk about whether the world will end with fire or ice. I thought the author was a little weird for writing a poem about not caring on the way he dies. Also‚ I thought it was funny the fact that his last name is frost and he prefers to die with fire. My response changes after my analysis because I realize that the poem seems to be about his romantic desire and his experience

write an anthology on this poem because I liked how it focussed on a person’s imperfections rather than their strengths. The character in this poem‚ as he states in the first three stanzas‚ is weary and fatigued from his long swim; something I can relate to after countless swim practices. Another feature which caught my attention was the fact that the author chose to include his character fantasizing another life for himself‚ which was both sentimental and unusual.

Frost Speech – Keith Haynes The lines of poetry I have just recited are stanzas 1-3 of Stopping by the woods on a snowy evening. In this poem Frost conveys the idea of a man stopping by some mysterious woods on a snowy evening and absorbing the quiet‚ beautiful scene. Frost reveals the temptation for the protagonist to stay for longer than he needs to in these woods‚ but knowing he has to return to reality and must continue travelling past the woods before he can rest for the night.

This poem consists of four stanzas and begins with a description about someone else’s woods where the speaker of the poem has stopped by to admire. The poem did not indicate wether the speaker of the poem is who‚ or is he a he or she. The first stanza was clear in saying the woods belong to someone else and that “he will not see me stopping here to watch his woods fill up with snow”‚ which shows that the owner does not take absolute good care of these lovely woods because of the speaker’s certainty
