Analysis of Chopin’s use of linguistic features in her literary works

From the mincing era, Chopin startled critics with her paradigmatic tale of a womans abortive agitate towards independence in an oppressive society. By using women as her protagonist, Chopin bring outs their sexist contributions in literature whilst liberalisationricting them from the expansion obligatory to deal with their realisation. It thus seemed conducive to interpret the story into a series of letter in the division of English Sonnets, establishing the unexploited characterisation of Edna with Robert, whilst they are separated from to each one otherwise. The transformation aims to elucidate Ednas role in society, by satirizing the narrow and stereotyped way in which woman are comm besides portrayed in literature.The novel as a form does not offer the opportunity for character learning in the same way a series of letters/ praises do. For example, Edna openly declares her lamb for Robert, at the time of her death Im the person who deserves your love. The continuous brain of the authors evaluation of the clean-living choices that her characters make is lost they seem more than autonomous without the sonnets because they speak for themselves without Chopins explicit authorial presence. The sonnet form successfully mimics letter writing as both forms are addressed to someone, whilst intercommunicate and shedding light on their admit thoughts.Moreover, when the two characters reveal their lookings to each other or reminisce of their time unneurotic at Grand Isle, the meter is tight, mirroring the lifelike sound of a heart beating. For example, Robert declares The bonds we make grew deeper than the sea. This foreshadows events, making it clear to the reader the context of which the letter/sonnets are written, in the novel.As the final sonnet concludes, the iambic pentameter in the rhyming couplets deliberately fails, creating the sound of a dying and irregular heartbeat, phonetically indicating Ednas death. Both strains thirteen and fou rteen comprise of eleven syllables, breaking the strict retrieve of including five iambs with one un accent and stressed syllable, to make up the meter. Unlike the rest of the sonnets, the final is in past strive which suggests that she has already died and is looking back on her words to Robert. The fact that she dies simultaneously as the sonnet concludes, highlights the end of their communication and and then concludes the transformation through with(predicate) her tragic death.Phallogocentrism is a key attitude conveyed in Roberts sonnets, particularly after he discovers that Edna only likes him to gain attention from her married man, whom she believes to be having an affair. For example, naturalized values of gender roles are implied through this simile like a deceived husband not knowing you, which aims to make Edna feel sympathy towards her husband, in an attempt to ignore her emotional desire for Robert, which contrastingly accentuates through the discourse of the tra nsformation.In conclusion, the third sonnet uses juxtaposition of Ednas beauty to highlight her cunning and manipulative ways as a female protagonist. This is revealed through the line For there can live no hatred on your face, which highlights Ednas surfaced, exonerated faade, concealing her inner desires, highlighting her non feminist attitude.
