Extractions: ENCYCLOPEDIA American Literature, Biographies Chopin, Kate O'Flaherty Related Category: American Literature, Biographies Chopin, Kate O'Flaherty [sh Pronunciation Key Bayou Folk (1894) and A Night in Acadie (1897), earned her a reputation as a local colorist, but her novel The Awakening (1899) caused a storm of criticism because of its treatment of feminine sexuality. In depicting objectively a woman's confused groping toward self-understanding and self-acceptance, Chopin seemed to threaten the mores of her time although she did not explicitly attack them. Largely ignored for the next 60 years, her work is now praised for its literary merit as well as for its remarkable independence of mind and feeling. See her complete works, edited by P.

Extractions: Katherine O'Flaherty was born on February 8, 1850 (or 1851 as some critics believe) in St. Louis, Missouri to Eliza Faris O'Flaherty, a well-connected Louisiana woman with French roots, and Captain Thomas O'Flaherty, a businessman from Ireland. Her father became one of the first influences in her life. He found her natural curiosity fascinating and encouraged her interests. On November 1, 1855, Kate's father was killed in train accident. Because of his premature death, three strong maternal figures raised Kate: her mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Madame Victoire Verdon Charleville, Kate's educated great-grandmother taught through the art of story telling, which is how Kate learned to be a successful storyteller. Through vivid French stories, she gave Kate a taste of the culture and freedom allowed by the French that many Americans during this time disapproved of. Many of the common themes in her grandmother's stories consisted of women struggling with morality, freedom, convention, and desire. The spirit of these stories endures in Kate's own works.
Extractions: Kate Chopin: Biography This biography was written by Ann-Marie Yeager, April 2000, student in En 272 (Modern American Short Fiction), New Hampshire Technical Institute, Concord, New Hampshire Kate Chopin was born Catherine O'Flaherty in St. Louis, Missouri (Ker, n.d). Through my research I have come across conflicting reports on her birth year. Some sources state she was born in 1850 while others claim 1851. Her father was Thomas O'Flaherty, a wealthy Irish immigrant and her mother, Eliza Faris O'Flaherty, a French-American (Ker, n.d.). In 1882, Oscar Chopin died of malaria (Shortess, n.d.) leaving Kate with six children to raise all under the age of twelve. Kate managed her husband's business for approximately a year and then returned to live near her mother in St. Louis. A year after her return, her mother passed away (Neocom Technologies Inc., 1999). Sources say the deaths of her mother and husband, in such close succession, left Kate feeling "depressed and grief-stricken" (Robitaille, n.d.). There seem to be several theories about why Kate began her writing career. Some say she needed to financially support her children (Shortess, n.d.) while others claim she was living comfortably with the money from her mother and husband's estates. Some believe Dr. Kolbenheyer, Kate's family doctor, was the driving force behind Kate's new career. He felt this was an appropriate outlet for her depression and "extraordinary energy" (Robitaille, n.d.). It was also believed that this was a way for her to find her identity and "self understanding" (Ker, n.d.).
