Wharton describes the moment when “her wonder and his laughter ran together like spring rills in a thaw.” The dead cucumber vine at the Frome farmhouse looks “like the crape streamer tied to the door for a death.” And, when Zeena tells Ethan that she should have sent Mattie away long ago because people were “talking,” the effect of her comment on Ethan is “like a knife-cut across the sinews.Because Wharton refrains from using unnecessary, superfluous modifiers, her descriptions seem to be almost elliptical or incomplete.For example, when Mattie and Ethan spend the evening together, Wharton uses the imagery of warmth and cold to complement characterization.For example, in the beginning of the novel, Wharton gives readers the feeling of th...

A study would be remiss if it did not find the connections of Edith Wharton to her more closely related contemporaries.This 1998 volume includes the great masters of the New York authorial world, and it is notable that Edith Wharton was included.A final area of relevance to the period surrounding Edith Wharton is that it was a literary moment dominated by male figures.Wharton should be examined for her valuable role as a female author writing of social values and implications in the early 1900s.These American authors would be called the Lost Generation because of this aspect of society that Wharton had already exposed.

Wharton makes her depiction of the van der Luydens ironic by several different means.Louisa looks like she was “rather gruesomely preserved in the airless atmosphere of a perfectly irreproachable existence.” This is not unlike the way Wharton sees Mrs. Mingott as a “doomed city” trapped under her own weight in Chapter 4.At Mrs. Mingott’s house, Wharton demonstrates how Archer’s thoughts on form depart from the norm.Here and throughout the novel, Wharton employs certain imagery by which to portray Old New York society.On a more symbolic level, Wharton ironically compares the traditional behaviors and codes of cultured Old New York with those of primitive or ancient cultures.

Thus, the question of feminism raised due to the common negative stereotype of a woman role, has been well compensated by Edith Wharton herself in the novels.Nonetheless, the society’s attitude towards the annulment of marriage as described by Edith Wharton cannot be used as the ground to support the claim that Wharton is a feminist writer.Again, Wharton may had intended to criticize on the society’s code of conduct, and in fact there is no other evidences in Wharton’s text (House of Mirth and Ethan Frome) that has clearly stated the prejudice towards women in the act of divorce.From this excerpt, Wharton indirectly states that Ellen Fonseka is not a sole object of possession, instead Newland Archer does feel something deep for her, it c...
