NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE EXIBITS
THE LASTING EFFECT OF SIN
IN THE SCARLET LETTER
Puritan society placed great importance upon a persons reputation. ... In Nathaniel Hawthornes novel, The Scarlet Letter, he shows the lasting effect that sin has on Hester and Dimmesdale. ... Hester is publicly seen with the scarlet letter when she first emerges out of prison. ... The spell that is mentioned is the scarlet letter, "so fantastically embroidered and illuminated upon her bosom". The scarlet letter is what isolates her from everyone else because it symbolizes sin. ... "Come along, Madam Hester, and show your scarlet letter in the market-place! ... This shows that she is willing to go out into public and show her scarlet letter without shame even though she is still condemned. ... "The minister looking upward to the zenith, beheld there the appearance of and immense letter, the letter A". ...
Nathaniel Hawthorne clearly exhibit’s the terrible outcome of adultery in this story, The Scarlet Letter and he also illiterates that the wrong doing stays with the sinners as an everlasting effect of a bad dream.
