The scarlet letter

1.The scarlet letter is an 1850 romantic work, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
 2.  The main character is Hester Prynne. She is young woman. Because of she found guilty of adultery. She must wear a scarlet “A” on a sign of shame.

3.Roger Chillingworth he is a small, misshapen man. And he is Hester’s long-lost husband, who has been presumed lost at sea.

Dimmesdale is reverend.

Pearl is a complex character, her primary function within the novel is as a symbol.

4.Chillingworth is Hester’s husband.

  Dimmesdale is her lover.

  Pearl is her daughter with Dimmesdale.

5.Hester lives a quiet, somber life with her daughter, Pearl. She is troubled by her daughter's unusual character.      As she grows older, Pearl becomes capricious and unruly. the church members suggest Pearl be taken away from Hester. From this event we can found Hester is incompetent mother for Pearl’s education.

6.In my opinion, I think I can use guilt. Everyone want to do a legalism. But everyone will make sin in their life. They will guilt for their sin. Such as Hester, I think she is a hero at that time. She protect her lover and raise her daughter, Pearl.

  7.  I think the novel based on Chillingworth vows to find a man who is the child’s father.

8.In the story, Hester has been found guilty of adultery. By the other way, that relaters to real life, I think the people is really traditional thinking at the Hester’s time. She just wants her happiness. But Hester cannot do it for social ethics. Now, everything is different. We can find own happiness.

 9.In my opinion, I connection the story made with character relationships, the story still around Hester’s sin, Chillingworth’s revenge, and Pearl’s grown, Dimmesdale’s guilt.
