Story of an Hour by Kate Chopin

Uploaded by : Essays-Now.com

This essay begins with a brief, one paragraph explanation to the student researching this subject of why the student's thesis that Louise Mallard, the protagonist of Kate Chopin's nineteenth century short story, "The Story of an Hour," committed suicide was rejected and the alternate proposed thesis, that she was murdered, was chosen by the writer. Then, the writer offers a nuanced and detailed argument, drawing on scholarly sources, to back this argument. Six pages in length, four sources are cited.
