Kate Chopin's exceptional life translated into her literary work, especially in her novel, The Awakening. The author lived as a strong, independent, talented woman who was lucky enough to be able to express her personality and let her imagination run wild both at home and outside of her home. Most of the women of her time were not so lucky. The main character in her novel, Edna Pontellier, is struggling to acquire the freedom that only a deep knowledge of oneself is able to allow. Chopin creates a character that, like most women in the nineteenth century in the American South, is heavily constraint by society's rules and prejudices to a role she never wanted to assume. Edna will finally succeed, but she will pay a high price for it: she will have to sacrifice her own life.

the systems that produce consciousness in humans is extraordinarily complex, these systems are still guided by natural processes and our understanding of these processes are likely to grow at an exponential rate. To argue that these systems are somehow "special" and "unique" is an argument out of ignorance. Before we understood how the planetary systems worked, we thought we were "special". Before we understood how evolution through the process of natural selection worked, we thought we were "special". Now that we stubble upon a new realm of ignorance, we claim that we are "special" once again. Hunt argued that we are inherently intellectually curious, restless, and maybe even playful. Could it not be the case that we are also inherently biased and should think twice about arguing that we are somehow special in the face of ignorance?
