You're the best! Thanks for explaining the story. I had a feeling that this was what it was about, but needed clarification. Very well put!!

[@SixMinuteScholar]

You're welcome!

[@mirandawilliams6507]

This was awesome. I read this story multiple times for my English class and failed to understand it until finding your video on here. Definitely showed me a whole new meaning to this great story. Thank you! We as women now are so fortunate to live without the restrictions and limited freedom that others like ourselves once had to endure!

[@ryandugger1145]

I'm watching in 2019! Thank you for this. Your video's give so much substance to already great stories.

Daisy Salinas this writer is a great writer so they assign her work to both high school and college! Obviously the work given varies! It’s not as the same high school work that is given to college students unless it’s a high School/college credit!!

True! I am a Senior in High School taking English 2341 and I'm currently reading this story for an assignment :(

This story was the first one I ever read when I was a freshman doing my Bachelor’s degree in English Literature. Spent four years doing the degree, I’m now watching it from my office as a teacher of English. This video will always bring me happy and sweet memories.

very descriptive and helpful video! thank you!!

[@SixMinuteScholar]

Carlos Palma I'm glad! Thanks for watching!

[@Lexyvil]

Great analysis! I didn't catch onto the symbolic window when I first read the story, but now that makes sense. I thought it was too confusing how one would suddenly turn slowly from sad to free and happy in just moments after hearing of a death of a beloved. But then again, I didn't consider the fact that some women were being treated as inferior back in those days, so that makes sense.

[@emmanuelkingue3268]

This is one of the most brilliant analysis I have ever seen. Ever since I have been trying to try a deconstructionist criticism on this story, not even my actual professor was this helpful. Thanks very much for this explanation, I right now am like a cat enjoying its favorite cat treats :) . PS: Very first channel I ever subscribed to on youtube as well!

[@SixMinuteScholar]

Emmanuel Kingue Thank you so much!

[@jebsmith323]

English teacher here. Thank you for pointing out that her genuine grief at the beginning shows affection in the marriage. Other commenters read too much into this relationship--abuse, forced marriage, age difference--and twist the story into more than the simple story needs. I tell students to remember the historical context. Women of her status were constrained by social mores especially in Louisianna post-Civil War when only white, land-owning men had any real power. Women went from their father's "ownership" into marriage at a typical early age--late teens-- and only gained control of their own lives when their husband died. That is the freedom she saw. Release from the subservient role cast upon her by society. It would not have occurred to her husband to treat her any other way. Always look at the historical and cultural context when examining literature and be cautious of projecting your own 21st-century experiences on other time periods. Kate Chopin is fascinating. Look her up.

[@SixMinuteScholar]

Thank you for adding such a cogent, "spot on" comment here! I totally agree.

[@jebsmith323]

I don't know how that line through the words got there. Now that I know you read it, I have to go back and correct my error!
