This revision of a widely adopted critical edition presents the 1969 Seyersted text of Kate Chopin's novel along with critical essays that introduce students to "The Awakening" from the perspectives of feminism, new historicism, psychoanalysis, deconstruction and cultural studies. An additional essay demonstrates how various approaches can be combined together. The text and essays are complemented by introductions to "The Awakening" and to the criticism, a glossary of critical terms, and contextual documents.
NANCY A. WALKER is Professor of English at Vanderbilt University.
