"The Awakening" by Kate Chopin

English
1 answer:
olchik [2.2K]3 years ago
8 0

Birds are an important part of Chopin’s novel. They represent the female soul or more precisely the female soul and its place in a patriarchal society. In the context of the novel they symbolize the rejection, by the main character of the place society reserves by default for the female protagonist, Edna Pontellier. These lines clearly foreshadow the feminist rejection of patriarchal social mores by the main character. The fact that such lines are uttered by a caged parrot is not fortuitous. The parrot personifies women, who are tired of parroting what the male society and their male husbands tell them to do, think or say. Women are also caged in a society that denies them their own choices and agency as free individuals.

lord [1]

Answer:

D. Although only a small number personally attended Mora’s speech, many more people can access her written essay.

Explanation:

Pat Mora's essay, "The Leader in the Mirror", narrates her reflections as a speaker in an occasion meant to reward hard working students in El Paso. Compared to her audience at the hotel, many more people have access to her written essay. This is because many people would have read the essay on books and online platforms.

In the essay, Pat Mora who is a writer reflects on the best gift she could offer the students. Since she was not rich, she thought about a gift that would have lasting value for the students. She decided on these imaginary gifts: a tape recorder,  little pieces of colored paper, a photograph, and a mirror.
