By using Jaques Derrida&#8217;s theory of deconstruction to analyze the story we see how the protagonist&#8217;s\u00a0 \u201cunfaithfulness\u201d ends up benefiting her and\u00a0 becomes the saving grace for her marriage.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Calixta\u2019s cheating could be counted as a type of self care and saving grace for her marriage. If the action would not have happened I\u2019m sure she would have argued with Bobnit when he returned and their marriage would have continued down a rocky road. In conclusion we see how Derrida&#8217;s theory of deconstruction can turn a negative action that we know as cheating and turn the meaning that society has put on the word and turn it into the complete opposite. Usually when a negative action like this takes place there is a negative domino effect. In this particular instance that the act of cheated fixed the marriage itself and made calixta a refreshed, loving \u00a0individual. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><iframe src=\"\/\/docs.google.com\/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsites.wp.odu.edu%2Fedmondsengl333%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F11624%2F2018%2F12%2FSandbox-essay-2.pdf&hl=en_US&embedded=true\" class=\"gde-frame\" style=\"width:100%; height:500px; border: none;\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<p class=\"gde-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/edmondsengl333\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11624\/2018\/12\/Sandbox-essay-2.pdf\" class=\"gde-link\">Download (PDF, 58KB)<\/a><\/p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; In Kate Chopin\u2019s \u201cThe storm\u201d protagonist, Calixta, goes against the typical social norms of being a good wife \u00a0to her husband.
