论文ID:404767620 Abstract: The thesis aims to analyze the reflection of Hawthorne’s view on Puritanism in The Scarlet Letter. Hawthorne was an American author of romanticism. Owing to the influence of North American Puritanism in the colonial period, Hawthorne showed his dual view on Puritanism by depicting the leading characters and the environment in the novel. For one thing, he was disgusted by the rules of Puritanism which suppressed the nature of man, treated women unfairly and so on, such as the depiction of characters Hester, Chillingworth; for another, he agreed with the concepts of Puritanism that everyone has guilt, one’s soul can be purified only by self-redemption and so on，such as the depiction of character Dimmesdale. However, Hawthorne expressed his agreements with Puritanism in the novel.

霍桑的清教思想在红字中的体现
摘 要：本文旨在略论美国浪漫主义作家霍桑的清教思想在《红字》中的体现。由于受殖民时期北美清教主义的作用，霍桑通过对人物和环境的描写体现了他的双重清教思想：即一方面对清教教条中对人性压抑和对女性不平等对待等内容的厌恶，英语论文题目，例如对海丝特和齐灵渥斯的描写；另一方面对人性本恶、只有通过自我救赎灵魂才能得以净化等观点的支持，英语论文，例如对丁梅斯代尔的描写。然而在小说中主要还是体现了作者对清教思想的赞同态度。
