It narrates love affairs between three persons. The punished woman. Hester Prynne and his husband. Who called himself Roger Chillingworth . He is an old misshapen man and a doctor. Hester does not love him at all. Another man is a young minister, Dimmesdale, who has a high position among ministers and is highly respected among his people in town. Hester and Dimmesdale love each other. But their love is forbidden in that time . It is sinful. Due to this,Hester is punished by society with a letter A on her chest, which considered an evil, a shame. In this novel, the mainline seems to be around the letter A. Hester is brave enough to face the cruel reality. She is always with a mind of courage. She has been alone with her child for so long , with litter communication. Shame! Hopelessness! Loneliness! Hester has to wear the letter A day after day, seven years as for punishment and ill fame. When a woman has lived through a difficult experience, her character changes a great deal. If she be all tenderness, she will die. If she survive, the tenderness will leave her .Hesters charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community. The letter on her chest represents her work on earth , always helping others, without expecting any thanks. Never afterwards, does that scarlet letter leave her chest. The townspeople no longer view the letter as a punishment , but rather as representing her great strength and bravery and thy say it means “Able”. But Arthur Dimmesdale, his sin against Hester and Pearl is that he will not acknowledge them as his wife and daughter in the daylight. He keeps his dreadful secret from all those under his care in the church for seven years for fear that he will lose their love and will not be forgiven. He is too weak to admit his sins. He suffers from mysterious heart trouble, seemingly caused by psychological distress. Whats worse, he is an advisor to the townspeople about their sins. After Mr. Dimmesdales death , no one changes more in appearance than Roger Chilling worth. All his strength and energy has been used to harm his patient . This unhappy man has made his aim in life to add to the suffering of the young minister. When the evil old man no longer has such a purpose, the devil takes him back to the hell . It is a curious subject of observation, however, whether hatred or love are not of the same place. Each takes a great deal of emotion from one person. The two feelings seem basically the same, expect that one is smiled upon by God, while the other is worshipped by the devil. The two lovers has ever decided to flee to Europe, where they can live with their dauthter Pearl as a family .They feel a sense of release there. However, their plan fails When Hester dies, she is buried next to Dimmesdale. The two share a single tombstone, with a deep colored letter A shining brightly. 红字是美国小说家霍桑最杰出的代表作,也是整 个美国浪漫主义小说中最有声望的权威作品之一.小说的故 事发生在十七世纪中期加尔文者派统治下的波士顿,作者从 当时的社会现状入手,通过一个感人的爱情故事悲剧来揭露 当局对人们精神,心灵和道德的摧残. 海丝特*白兰是一个在婚姻上遭到不幸的女人,年轻美 貌,却嫁给了身体畸形多病的术士罗杰*齐灵沃斯,夫妻间根 本谈不上爱情,后来,罗杰又在海上失踪,杳无音讯,白兰孤 独的过着日子.这时一个英俊有气魄的青年牧师,亚瑟*丁梅 斯代尔闯入了她的生活,他们真诚的相爱了,度过了一段隐 私但热烈的爱情生活.不久,白兰由于怀孕的隐情暴露,以通 *罪被抓,在狱中生下了女儿小珠儿. 按照当时的教规,白兰只有交代*夫的姓名才能获得赦 免,否则将受惩罚.然而执行审讯任务的却正是他的情人.白 兰宁愿独自忍受任何惩罚,为了把她和丁梅斯代尔之间的爱 情深深地埋在心中,她坚强的挺住了. 海丝特*白兰受到了惩罚,她必须终身穿着一件绣着红 色 A字的外衣.字母 A代表“通*(Adultery)“一词.白兰带着 小珠儿离群独居,在郊外偏僻的茅舍中过者孤寂的生活.而 用心险恶的前夫罗杰发现了丁梅斯代尔的反常表现,利用牧 师痛苦和矛盾的心情,不断地折磨他,终于丁梅斯代尔在他 即将升为主教的前夕,当众宣布了自己的秘密,丁梅斯代尔 向周围的人们展露了这首爱情的颂歌.当他把自己的胸衣扯 开时,一个猩红的 A字烙在他的胸前.他在自己的爱人身边 离开了人世. 海丝特*白兰,他坚强,有毅力,对爱情忠贞不渝.虽然 被统治者认为有罪,但她是清白的,纯洁的.她的精神不断上 升,成为真,善,美的化身.她的举动是对封建政权与教权压 迫下的爱情,人权和自由的充分肯定. 丁梅斯代尔最初与白兰产生了炽热的的爱情,虽然他 一度退却了,为自己能够隐蔽的安慰,但内心的痛苦并没有 因他的安全而平息,相反,越来越强烈.他与白兰的约会,他
