In the making of a Thesis Statement...Who said it is easy!!
After going through all the steps mentioned in Dr Malachi's EDU3234 module... finally this is my thesis statement :
" Edna’s rebellion against her life as a wife and mother as she awakens in a newly discovered feeling of freedom reveals her adventurous and independent character. "
I hope this thesis statement will be accepted by my respectful lecturer... Dr Malachi Edwin.
I came up with the thesis statement because from my opinion, Edna, the protagonist in the novel entitle "The Awakenings" by Kate Chopin, tries to break free from her conventions by abandoning her husband and children. Her changing attitudes, also defining her as a character, and to foreshadow her important events and moods. She rebels against these forces by quitting her social duties as a member of the upper class. It is interesting that the repercussions for failing to abide by the social parameters of class are not nearly as damning as failing to abide by the social conventions of womanhood. Edna does not behave as a traditional woman would in those times at all.... Something interesting to be discuss... Wish me the b est of luck.
