( so do not use any other materials) Topic: In depth, you should analyze a major influence on a person's identity and, at the same time, analyze "The Story of an Hour" by Kate Chopin. There needs to be a strong connection between this major influence and "The Story of an Hour."         Suggestions for development: First, a major influence on a person's identity must be chosen that can be found in "The Story of an Hour." This major influence could be: age, sex, marriage, communication, culture, illusions, love, society, material possessions, trauma, freedom, historical time period, social position, family or some other influence that you have had approved by the professor. The major influence can be affected by other influences, but the focus should be stronger on the major influence throughout the essay. How does "The Story of an Hour" show and explore this major influence? For instance, one character could strongly show the positive and/or negative effect(s) of this influence. How does this major influence affect people? How has society been affected?
