Awakening - Chapters I-XV, Pages 44-94 - Due Friday September 7th
We are influenced by all sorts of people in all sorts of
situations. Edna Pontellier has
many people who influence her life.
Some are family members, others are people she meets while staying in
Grand Isle. Mademoiselle Reisz,
Adele Ratignolle, Robert Lebrun, Alcee Arobin, Leonce Pontellier, Doctor
Mandelet, The Colonel, Madame Antoine, are not all, but certainly some of those
people. Comment on how characters
from Chapters I-XV influenced Edna – or how she influenced them.
Include quotes and page numbers to support your ideas. Once you have
posted your ideas, please check back periodically to comment on at least two
other posts.
