Abstract

 

Kate Chopin is known as a famous American woman writer at the end of the 19th century, whose masterpiece The Awakening is an important novel in early American feminist literature. The novel is mainly about a traditional female consciousness gradually awakening. In order to pursuit to individuality and freedom, Edna bravely ran away from home. As a result, she is no longer a slave or accessory of her husband and family, but in the end, she could not find identity consistent with her pursuit in the society and choose to give up her life.

 In The Awakening, Chopin employs a lot symbols to show women’s resistance against the tradition, the pursuit of self and the awakening of self. In order to deeply understand the significant thoughts of the novel and interpret the spiritual world of the characters, the paper will analyze the use of the symbols from diverse perspective, such as the symbolic meaning of the title, the symbolic meaningl of the localities and the symbolic meaning of the people and objects, to show the protagonist’s psychological predicament and self-awareness.
