The Scarlet Letter《红字》：Hester（女主）
The themes of The Scarlet Letter
Sin
The experience of Hester and Dimmesdale recalls the story of Adam and Eve becau, in both cas, sin results in expulsion and suffering. But it also results in knowledge—specifically, in knowledge of what it means to be immortal. For Hester, the scarlet letter functions as "her passport into regions where other women dared not tread", leading her to "speculate" about her society and herlf more "boldly" than anyone el in New England.
Past and prent
The clashing of past and prent is explored in various ways. For example, the character of the old General, who heroic qualities include a distinguished name, perverance, integrity, compassion, and moral inner strength, is said to be "the soul and spirit of New England hardihood". Now put out to pasture, he sometimes presides over the Custom Hou run by corrupt public rvants, who skip work to sleep, allow or overlook smuggling, and are supervid by an inspector with "no power of thought, nor depth of feeling, no troublesome nsibilities", who is honest enough but without a spiritual compass.
