difficult or impossible; the price for the art is often tragic endings. Rosowski calls this female awakening "an awakening to limitations" (Bloom 43). Rosowski's reading of the novel emphasizes the role gender plays in shaping a male narrative versus a female narrative.

But on a metaphysical level, especially from the Buddhist perspective, The Awakening's
The statute of limitation refers to the length of time in which a plaintiff can file a claim. The principle behind statute of limitation is that lawsuits cannot be improved as time passes by.

Ideally, court prefers to settle the case as soon as disputes develop (Warner, 2010). However, for professional and product liabilities, with injuries may take time to manifest

own choices about the story with a few limitations set by the author. Bolter describes it by saying on page 168, “…Hypertext writers have shown how the electronic medium can accommodate a different relationship between author and reader. No longer an intimidating figure, an electronic author assumes the role of a craftsperson, working with prescribed materials and goals.

there are many limitations to this field of study. Beginning in the observation stage, there are three main limitations. While we may be able to observe human behavior, we have no way of knowing exactly what is going through a person’s head at the time of experiment, which rules out some forms of study. However, if the experiment allows a subject to speak about what they are thinking about it still leaves room for a subject to lie if they so choose. Which leads into the next limitation, humans tend
