The second edition of this important canonical text is again based in the 1899 edition. The "Criticism" section has been greatly expanded to include more feminist appraisals, and a chronology has been added.
Kate Chopin, was born Katherine O'Flaherty in St. Louis on Feburary8,1851, of a prosperous Irish-born merchant father and an aristocratic Creole mother. She studied piano, wrote poetry, and read Dickens, Austen, Goethe, de Stael, and the Brontes. Despite her free spirit--she was once nicknamed the "littlest rebel" for yanking down a Union flag--Kate grew to be a leading social belle, admired for her wit and beauty.
In 1870 she married Oscar Chopin. Matrimony did not quell her independence; she dressed unconventionally, took long unchaperoned walks, and smoked cigarettes. In their twelve years of married life, she bore six children, and upon Oscar's sudden death in 1882 she took over the management of the Chopin family plantation in Natchitoches, Louisana. She turned seriously to writing shortly thereafter, publishing stories in Vogue and Atlantic Monthly. She wrote a novel, At Fault(1890), Bayou Folk, a collection of stories(1894), A Night in Acadie, a second collection (1897), and her masterpiece The Awakening(1899), which aroused a national scandal for its "indecency." Banned by libraries, it even prevented her admission into the St. Louis Fine Arts Club--even though Kate Chopin was famous for her literary salon, which attracted distinguished artists and writers from all over the country.
Always sensitive to criticism, Chopin was devastated by the furor that surrounded the publication of The Awakening, and its harsh reception ultimately caused her to stop writing. When she died in 1904, she had been denied the recognition she desperately wanted and richly deserved.
我覺得Edna的想法很前衛,同時也很自私,同時Robert看似開放其實迂腐。在這裏沒有一個角色是完美的。但是看到Edna覺醒的過程,一步一步,慢慢摧毀自己建立的城堡,再建立起自己的巢穴,最後再一步步走嚮大海。一切好像很突然,實則一切結局在開頭便已經注定瞭。
評分不知為何,總感覺作者的寫作中帶著一種疏離感

評分The awakening of a woman of being herself not anyone else, to some extent, must have a beloved man’s participation. The man during the process, should play more a supporter than a trigger, which echoes the core of the modern sexuality and HeForShe campaign. A woman should never be yoked to their conventional social identity as a wife or a mother.
今晚一口气读完《觉醒》这本书,原名为《孤独的灵魂》(A Solitary Soul)。在读之前并不知道还有这个如此喜欢的原名,就连作者是谁都不知道,对小说的背景也毫不了解。只是看着名字感觉还不错,页数也不是很多,应该可以在较短时间内读完,拿来练习一下速读应该还可以。没想到...
評分在《觉醒》的第三章中,受到丈夫莫名其妙的责难后,因为心中“一股难以言喻的抑郁之感”,使艾德娜“眼泪来得太凶,睡袍的袖子已经湿透,无法再擦拭更多的泪水了”。至第十七章,回到漫步大道上的好宅后,艾德娜不再“唯夫是从”,甚至“脱下结婚戒指,丢到地毯上”。虽然其后...
評分<The Awakening>写于1899年, 出版后因主题的尺度遭受监禁和批评, 直到作者去世几十年后才被认定为19世纪美国文学的重要一章. 书里有一个美丽的女人, 已婚, 成为丈夫和儿子的财产. 晒了一夏天太阳和遇到情人之后她决定不再昏头昏脑的活着. 是悲剧还是希望别人无法评判, 醒来的...
評分读完《觉醒》,心底里有点压抑,更偏向凯特 肖邦一开始对于这部著作的命名《孤独的灵魂》。 或许读一遍着实不足以洞悉作者在塑造人物形象和叙述故事情节时的用心良苦,但我仍然想把内心的切实感受叙述一二。 女主人公艾德娜觉醒的过程在一个女人不以自己独存而...
