Thesis #2:
Chopin expresses this by having the main character Mrs. Mallard think of freedom while looking out a window of her prison. Making Mrs. Mallard idealize what it would be like to not be with her husband suggests that she was not in the marriage for love but possible forced into it from outside pressures. Chopin paints the perfect socialite life for Mrs. Mallard but leaves one thing broken, her heart. Implying that Mrs Mallard was already dead before the shock of her husband actually being alive killed her.
it makes sense thinking that someone sensitive will die when their hearth dies. when normal people think with their brain, sensitive people think with their hearths; and once the hearth is dead, then mentally they are death although their body still intact. so it makes sense when she saw her husband die, the same time she died.
