A setting can be used to create a mood, as an integral part of the plot,creating a conflict, etc, to bring out certain aspects of the characters, and can also be used figuratively or symbolically to hint at the story's theme or reflect an interior state of the characters.

Answer from: lloveshan219

Alright correct me if I’m wrong but I think story of an hour is of that lady whose husband dies so she gets all happy in the end then he comes back and she dies “of joy that kills” right? If that’s the one then:

The switch from the main house setting, surrounded by people, to the main character’s bedroom in the beginning of the story quickly establishes the main character’s willingness for this change in her life. It also helps to symbolize her realization in her own conformity and how she’s acting out of society’s ‘required’ grief— the explanation of the nice day outside after she goes to her room, described quite beautifully, matches with how the main character’s view of the situation is that it’s beautiful, in a way— she sees her husband’s death as her freedom and in this way it’s just as breathtaking for her as a pretty sky is for the reader. It creates a beautiful description creating a happier, more free and careless— that is, free-minded— tone than before. When she was downstairs the setting was described very briefly and with many people, busting themselves and trying not to break the news too harshly— this business with little else explanation of the setting created an uneasy, almost rushed tone. The big space around her single chair, later, represents her allowing herself to be alone and to contemplate her inner feelings without the need, like in the setting beforehand, to conform to the expectations of what she should feel— it represents her own time and the big, empty space of freedom left for her as well; that empty feeling, of aprehension, then joy.

As she goes back to the people-filled downstairs, it represents her drop back down. She sees her husband and realizes her feelings which she’d just allowed herself to truly feel— free, happy, joyed— were all fantasies. The brief description of the front door opening and her dying helps to show how abruptly upsetting and down-letting the tone is, how she got all those feels before just to be let down.
