Abstract:

Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter has been focused onby critics from different aspects due to his ambiguity used in the novel. Hawthorne himself has been doubted as to whether he is a misogynist or a feminist when describing the female character, Hester Prynne. This article supports the idea that Hawthorne holds the idea offeminism in his work The Scarlet Letter. A writer who mirrors Hester’s life as his own cannot be a misogynist; a writer who honors a woman’s rebelling against patriarchy cannot be a misogynist; a writer who has a beloved wife and mother cannot be a misogynist.

Abstract:

Abstract The coronavirus pandemic in some ways returned us to a more nineteenth-century outlook on contagion. In the early months before the public had a clear understanding of how this coronavirus spread, everything and everyone became subject to politicized suspicion. Nathaniel Hawthorne was perhaps preoccupied with the same questions that current scholars and the general public have faced since the beginning of the pandemic: Who can we trust among ourselves, our communities, and our institutions? How do we know what information is true? Hawthorne's Puritan stories “The Minister's Black Veil

Abstract:

This study employs transitivity theory to explore how Nathaniel Hawthorne uses linguistic structures to highlight themes of contradiction in The Scarlet Letter. By adopting Halliday and Matthiessen's transitivity framework, the analysis identifies the predominant use of relational, material, and mental processes, revealing how these linguistic choices shape readers' interpretations and enhance thematic depth. The findings indicate that relational processes are most dominant, reflecting characters’ societal positions and internal conflicts, while verbal and behavioral processes are less emphasi

Abstract:

Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “David Swan: Fantasy” is a very short and simple story, but it contains deep thoughts about chance, fate, and uncertainty in life. Despite the limitations of unrecognizable coincidences or personal fate, Hawthorne recognizes the regularity of life, which we can predict in part. It means that the unpredictable events we experience are related to Providence or some transcendent order. Therefore, “David Swan: Fantasy” can be said to be a fable that combines Hawthorne's puritanical worldview with romantic imagination.

ABSTRACT The first members of the Pyncheon family Nathaniel Hawthorne names in The House of the Seven Gables include no humans, but “the old Pyncheon-house” and “the Pyncheon-elm” (5). I argue that Hawthorne’s representation of nature produces a cultural–natural place-sense in which environment acts both as cultural symbol and endemic nature separate from human conceptions. By reading Hawthorne via Lawrence Buell’s “place-sense,” I argue for doubled existences of Hawthorne’s environment and position Hawthorne in dialogue with Alexander von Humboldt.

If The Blithedale Romance constitutes a new point of departure for Hawthorne's fictional project, it is nevertheless a point of departure that Hawthorne, in particular in his prefaces, had contemplated all along.

His masterpiece The Scarlet Letter ensures Hawthorne as the leading American native novelist in literature. Hawthorne exposes in his novels the immense destruction and ecological crisis caused by human civilization.

However, Hawthorne’s captivating writing leaves space for multiple interpretations, and bearing in mind that Hawthorne belongs to Dark Romanticism this short story can be regarded as a defeat of individual heart against collective mind. In this story, Hawthorne, a great symbolist of his time, carefully developed the plot and the characters in order to portray how individual striving for progress and betterment can

Nathaniel Hawthorne's view of his first American ancestors as belonging to a grim and gloomy race, impatient with human weaknesses and merciless towards transgressors, reflects a wide-spread popular attitude towards the Massachusetts Bay colonists. Indeed, Hawthorne's contribution to the construction and perpetuation of this view is not inconsiderable. Hawthorne frankly confesses to his own family descent from one of the “hanging judges” of the Salem witchcraft trials, and he does not spare any instance of persecution, obsession, or cruelty regarding the community led by his paternal ancestors

This paper focuses on three American Romantic writers: Emerson, Thoreau, and Hawthorne, examining the problem of ghostliness or life not fully lived present in their works.

Abstract:

As the scarlet letter ends, Hawthorne offers us a glimpse of Hester Prynne's future. We are to imagine her as a figure of wisdom, offering counsel to a community of perplexed and sorrowful women, the casualties of love. Her bitter experience has at last become a source of authority; the marginal has become central. This vision of Hester anticipates Hawthorne's transformation of his fiction as he moved from The Scarlet Letter to The House of the Seven Gables. The “hell-fired” intensity of the former book generated in Hawthorne the wish to write something more genial, less gloomy, “a more natura

ABSTRACT This article challenges the assumption that Nathaniel Hawthorne's “Chiefly About War Matters” literally expresses the political beliefs of its author in a work of nonfictional journalism. It shows instead how, in this text, Hawthorne adopted Washington Irving's formulation of the literary sketch and its narrative perspective of the “sauntering gaze” as an aesthetic response to the temporal acceleration of the Civil War. With his fictional sketch narrator, “a Peaceable Man” whose meandering portraits of political and military leaders, modernized warfare, and militarized landscapes unfo

Abstract:

Scholars now generally acknowledge that Nathaniel Hawthorne was no deeply secluded artist, but a man and citizen keenly aware of contemporary social and political issues. Over three decades ago, Arlin Turner maintained that Hawthorne wrote in response not only to his extensive reading in American history but to the burgeoning nationalism of the 1820s and 1830s. We cannot fail to note the growing ascendancy during this period of that one moral issue which would soon come to eclipse all others and draw the nation into its bloodiest conflict — that of slavery. Moreover, the very seedbed of the an

Abstract:

Nathaniel Hawthorne's “Wakefield” is a psychologically explorative short story that delves into the human desire to break away from mundane routines and observe one's life and influence from an outsider's perspective. Wakefield makes a selfish and arrogant decision driven by a morbid vanity, curious about the impact of his absence on his wife and home. Hawthorne illustrates how Wakefield's self-centered choice leads from voluntary exile to social isolation, warning about the consequences of irresponsible actions on oneself and those around him. Through this unique and imaginative narrative, Ha

Abstract:

AbstractMost criticism of Nathaniel Hawthorne's Novel The Marble Faun has focussed on its many images of domestic containment, its supposed argument in favor of Christian idealism, as well as Hawthorne's apparent “castration” of the American sculptor Kenyon – just another in a long list of the author's male protagonists who succumb to a mixture of self-doubt (Dimmesdale, in The Scarlet Letter), narcissism (Coverdale, in The Blithedale Romance), and the allure of the chaste virgin (Holgrave, in The House of the Seven Gables). This essay, however, argues that Miriam, the novel's chief female pro

Abstract:

Abstract: Building on the recent “temporal turn” in the study of nineteenth-century American literature, this article explores the politically resistant rhythms of reading that Hawthorne develops in The House of the Seven Gables . In particular, this article focuses on Hawthorne’s modulation of tense in the novel—his use of the rhythm of the present tense—as a source of his resistance to the drumbeat rhythms of nineteenth-century market capitalism. Following three rhythms of reading that are tied to three distinct characters—Hepzibah, Clifford, and Jaffrey—this article reveals the way that Haw

Abstract:

Abstract Nathaniel Hawthorne's “Sunday at Home” and Henry David Thoreau's A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers provide two different models for distanced cultural engagement that nevertheless spring from similar philosophical assumptions. The narrator of “Sunday at Home” finds that watching the ritual of church alone from his bedroom window inspires his imagination and bolsters his faith. In the “Sunday” section of A Week, Thoreau criticizes organized religion, through which he champions the virtues of self-reliance and internal freedom. Hawthorne and Thoreau thus each represent public w
