The Awakening, as the authoress' last masterpiece, also sharing one fate with Hardy's last one, was finally recognized and even praised as "beautifully written" by Edmund Wilson, and "exquisite" and "sensitive" by Willa Cather. However, the praised didn't live as long as Hardy, who finally outlived the thrusts and cuts.
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.
一百多年以前的女性覺醒,有力度
評分最後一章女主來到Victor傢中,恰逢Victor公子正用西班牙語臭罵不聽話的黑人女奴,那一刻她是否覺醒到自己這點女權主義的小小憂傷從來不是世界的主要矛盾。
評分鄙人第二本英文原著終於讀完瞭……

心理活动太多,故事有点压抑,而且文笔也不太是我喜欢的风格。用词比较简单,篇幅不长(是不是长篇小说啊?篇幅这么短)就这俩点来说诚意推荐。总之,个人感觉是时代意义大于艺术价值。 kate chopin还写过短篇,有些还是很有意思的

評分这是一部在美国文学史上被“重新发现”的经典。出版于1899年,在“cult of womenhood”的时代,《觉醒》所受关注甚少,即便有,也是负面的评价。只在20世纪70年代女性主义盛行时,在女性主义者试图重新发现被忽略的女性作家及其作品、重建文学传统和经典的努力中,《觉醒》被经...
