A storm can represent and symbolize many different meanings. The impact of the word can be caused by many different points of view and aspects that organize to create and describe detailed information and great definition of the subject of the news as a whole. Using the storm as a symbol, it gives way to a passage that will encounter the relationship and parallel aspect of both the fervent thunder that occurs and the sexual passion encountered throughout the story. Kate Chopin opens an interesting view and tentative explanation of human sexuality and the strong point of view of the regulations placed on human sexuality as well as the aspect of trying to control a storm. By linking these two ideas into a single word, Kate Chopin was able to come up with a vision that would symbolize the premise of desires through the variations of the storm. Kate Chopin was born on February 8, 1851 into a wealthy Catholic family in St. Louis. Missouri. When she was a little girl, her father died a few years later, in 1855, and she was raised at home with her other sisters and her mother, strong and prominent women who believed in self-sufficiency. Soon, on June 9, 1870, Chopin married a man named Oscar. She graduated from the Saint-Louis Convent School. Meanwhile, Kate was soon busy being a mother and wife to the prestigious businessman Oscar whom she married. Throughout this life escapade, Kate was forced to move often due to her husband's change of business. Although it was difficult to take advantage of these circumstances, Kate managed a small farm and plantation to make things work. Even so, Kate emerged to discover that all these premises would soon be her inspirations and...... middle of paper ... regardless of gender or nationality. Overall, Kate Chopin is able to combine two very different aspects of life and involve the relationship and symbolism of the storm with physical needs, sexual desires and new, deep joy. By bringing these two parallel topics together, the author is able to show the deeper meaning of a simple word, "storm", and reveal a story that shows attitudes and beliefs towards marriage and sex. In doing so, Chopin creates a strong point of view between these two topics and helps show the point of view of the regulations of sex and marriage throughout his short story, “The Tempest”.
