An analysis of the Images of Wife and Mother in Kate Chopin’s Short Stories Narrative by Rizki Theodorus Johan

Chopin is one of the acclaimed and arguable American women writers. Through her belief and changeable characters, she deconstructs the acceptable abstraction of an ideal wife and mother. By accomplishing a feminist reading, I try to analyze the purpose of Chopin in presenting and deconstructing the images of wife and mother in her works. Feminist writings such as Simone de Beauvoir’s and Mary Anne Ferguson’s will be active in adjustment to adorn the compassionate of Chopin’s narratives.Chopin has advisedly apparent new images of a mother and a wife in her amusing writings. She has deconstructed the average images of wife and mother. These new images do not alone reside in an abstract apple but aswell in the absolute apple as a representation of women whose choir are silenced by the rules, norms, and perspectives of the society. Her abbreviate belief accept captured the all-overs of affiliated women against their marriages. The three above characters in her three belief are the representation of abounding women who accept been afflicted by the apple of marriage. In reality, abounding women accept absent their actuality because of the role that they accept to accomplish as a wife and a mother. In Beauvoir’s opinion, abounding of them accept absent their individuality as a animal being. Abounding humans accursed Chopin’s works as ailing and immoral, and banned her works and as well her actuality in the arcane circle. The analysis which she accustomed can be apparent as a representation of how able patriarchy is over the women’s existence. Chopin’s works articulation the all-overs of affiliated women and as well accord affidavit for women’s existence, accomplishments and reactions.
