Kate Chopin/Heart Disease & Women
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that, first of all, summarizes Chopin's short story "The Story of an Hour." Then the writer offers a brief survey of the problems of detecting heart disease in women before going back to the narrative to discuss how this information affects the story. The writer argues that while heart disease is intrinsic to the narrative, it plays a minor role as the principal point is the feelings of the protagonist toward the restrictive nature of nineteenth century marriage. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Kate Chopin/Story of an Hour
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that examines Chopin's nineteenth century short story. Chopin's "The Story of an Hour" (1894) is one of the most anthologized short stories in American literature and numerous students have "grappled" with the story's implications as to gender in nineteenth century American society (Deneau 210). Modern readers debate as whether Louise, Chopin's protagonist, is "a normal, understandable, sympathetic women" or if is she "an egocentric, selfish monster or anomaly" (Deneau 210). This question cannot be reasonably considered outside the restrictive gender stereotyping of that era. When the modern reader understands the nature of Victorian society from a woman's standpoint, it becomes possible to see that Louise is not a monster. She loves her husband, but just as one can be fond of one's jailer, it is nevertheless pleasant to be let out of jail. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Kate Chopin/The Storm
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that summarizes and analyzes Kate Chopin’s short story “The Storm.” The writer first discusses how Chopin’s perspective differed from the stereotype for women prevalent in the 19th century, which pictures women as asexual. The writer than explains that Chopin wrote stories containing overt sensuality, in which she pictured women as sexual beings and sex as a natural part of all human behavior, male and female. Chopin’s “The Storm” illustrates this point. No additional sources cited.

Katherine Anne Porter/Relations Between Generations
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page essay, which discusses the work of Katherine Anne Porter, an American writer from the first half of the twentieth century who is primarily famous for her finely crafted short stories. While Porter's short fictional works stand alone as self-contained narratives, the characters she creates tend to appear in multiple stories, forming, collectively, a cohesive story line. This feature is evident in four short stories that outline the relationship which a particular grandmother, Sophia Jane Rhea, has with her grandchildren, one of which is Miranda, who recurs throughout many of Porters stories. The relations between the generations that these stories portray is one in which the generation of the Old South, that is adults who were products of antebellum Southern society, still rule. However, Porter pictures how the "Old Order," as she refers to it is passing. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Katherine Anne Porter/Use of Setting in 'Old Mortality'
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page analysis of the role that setting plays in Katherine Anne Porter's short story 'Old Mortality,' The writer argues that setting plays a crucial role as it provides the backdrop that defines and motivates the development of the characters. For this story, setting is not just the physical environs in which the story takes place, but also the cultural and social attitudes, customs and mores that create and define attitudes and feelings in the late nineteenth century. By portraying the action of the narrative through the eyes of two little girls, Maria and Miranda, Porter demonstrates how culture serves to sculpt the expectations and personalities of women. No additional sources cited.
