Call for Freedom by de Beauvoir & Friedan: Covering Chopin’s heroine ‘Louise Mallard’

Date of Publication : 31, Dec, 2022

Feminism examines variations in social identity and fights for women’s equality rights. Using the focal character of Kate Chopin, this study examines Simone de Beauvoir’s and Betty Friedan’s preconceptions about women and society. After delving into the key reasons for the terrible demise of the story’s main character, more than one conclusion emerges as dominating. These factors are known as Patriarchal Setup in Communities, as well as Societal norms, Beliefs, and Behaviours. The major purpose of this research is to show how patriarchy still exists during the second wave of feminism and why women should struggle for their independence. Two feminist writers become a voice for silent and muted women, attempting to rouse them from a lengthy slumber. As a result, Kate Chopin’s The Story of One Hour is an excellent resource for comprehending and contextualising the concept.
