Kate Chopin's The Awakening and Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth are both novels of manners that present social customs and expectations during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Focusing on two female protagonists, the novels show the hardships that each character has to overcome while trying to adhere to societal roles placed upon them. For this reason, the works are commonly classified as feminist novels, although this term does not illuminate the complex, underlining story that the authors were trying to encompass. By taking away the exclusively "feminist" distinction and replacing it with the combined ideas of feminism, Darwinism, transcendence, and American literary naturalism, the reader can understand how each movement influenced the authors to write about their protagonists' hardships. Social Darwinism allowed Chopin and Wharton to show the inadequacy of their female protagonists to survive in society, which in turn prohibits them from transcending into an individual "self". Similarly, the authors exhibit the truth about gender and economic inequality in late nineteenth and early twentieth century through their fictional characters by using American naturalism. In doing so, the authors enable the reader to fully understand that it was not simply gender constraints that kept each protagonist from independence, but their disdain for their constraints of nineteenth-century American society.
