Existential Angst in Kate Chopin’s The Story of an Hour
Open accessAbstract
The present article on Kate Chopin’s The Story of an Hour (1894) explores women’s anxieties and struggles for self identity within the arena of strict social and traditional structures deeply rooted in the then American society in the late nineteenth century. Through this short story, Chopin portraits her feminist view and uses her own inspiration for surviving normal life in the mind of the American women for whom existing freely realizing their identity and potentiality had been far cry. Thus, drawing upon the idea of Simone de Beauvoir and other writers, this paper examines the desire and struggle of the female protagonist, Mrs. Mallard for her meaningful existence in the male-dominated society in America.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“This result differs from the ones found by Wang (2008), Karami & Zohdi (2015), and Paudel (2019) who, in reading the story, conclude that even if women liberation seems impossible, Chopin implicitly insists that there will always hope existing.”

In the citing paper
“Louise undergoes, and here I agree with Paudel (2019), existential angst and thus performs a problematic inner struggle to justify existential freedom and its limit.”

“This pattern supports the proposed theme of the story: Louise's existential journey resulting in psychological disruption (Jamil, 2009) and existential angst (Paudel, 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
