Plot Overview: The Scarlet Letter opens with a long preamble about how the book came to be written. The nameless narrator was the surveyor of the customhouse in Salem, Massachusetts. In the customhouse's attic, he discovered a number of documents, among them a manuscript that was bundled with a scarlet, gold-embroidered patch of cloth in the shape of an “A.” The manuscript, the work of a past surveyor, detailed events that occurred some two hundred years before the narrator's time. When the narrator lost his customs post, he decided to write a fictional account of the events recorded in the manuscript. The Scarlet Letter is the final product. The story begins in seventeenth-century Boston, then a Puritan settlement. A young woman, Hester Prynne, is led from the town prison with her infant daughter, Pearl, in her arms and the scarlet letter “A” on her breast. A man in the crowd tells an elderly onlooker that Hester is being punished for adultery. Hester's husband, a scholar much older than she is, sent her ahead to America, but he never arrived in Boston. The consensus is that he has been lost at sea. While waiting for her husband, Hester has apparently had an affair, as she has given birth to a child. She will not reveal her lover's identity, however, and the scarlet letter, along with her public shaming, is her punishment for her sin and her secrecy. On this day Hester is led to the town scaffold and harangued by the town fathers, but she again refuses to identify her child's father. The elderly onlooker is Hester's missing husband, who is now practicing medicine and calling himself Roger Chillingworth. He settles in Boston, intent on revenge. He reveals his true identity to no one but Hester, whom he has sworn to secrecy. Several years pass. Hester supports herself by working as a seamstress, and Pearl grows into a willful, impish child. Shunned by the community, they live in a small cottage on the outskirts of Boston. Community officials attempt to take Pearl away from Hester, but, with the help of Arthur Dimmesdale, a young and eloquent minister, the mother and daughter manage to stay together. Dimmesdale, however, appears to be wasting away and suffers from mysterious heart trouble, seemingly caused by psychological distress. Chillingworth attaches himself to the ailing minister and eventually moves in with him so that he can provide his patient with round-the-clock care. Chillingworth also suspects that there may be a connection between the minister's torments and Hester's secret, and he begins to test Dimmesdale to see what he can learn. One afternoon, while the minister sleeps, Chillingworth discovers a mark on the man's breast (the details of which are kept from the reader), which convinces him that his suspicions are correct. Dimmesdale's psychological anguish deepens, and he invents new tortures for himself. In the meantime, Hester's charitable deeds and quiet humility have earned her a reprieve from the scorn of the community. One night, when Pearl is about seven years old, she and her mother are returning home from a visit to a deathbed when they encounter Dimmesdale atop the town scaffold, trying to punish himself for his sins. Hester and Pearl join him, and the three link hands. Dimmesdale refuses Pearl's request that he acknowledge her publicly the next day, and a meteor marks a dull red “A” in the night sky. Hester can see that the minister's condition is worsening, and she resolves to intervene. She goes to Chillingworth and asks him to stop adding to Dimmesdale's self-torment. Chillingworth refuses. Hester arranges an encounter with Dimmesdale in the forest because she is aware that Chillingworth has probably guessed that she plans to reveal his identity to Dimmesdale. The former lovers decide to flee to Europe, where they can live with Pearl as a family. They will take a ship sailing from Boston in four days. Both feel a sense of release, and Hester removes her scarlet letter and lets down her hair. Pearl, playing nearby, does not recognize her mother without the letter. The day before the ship is to sail, the townspeople gather for a holiday and Dimmesdale preaches his most eloquent sermon ever. Meanwhile, Hester has learned that Chillingworth knows of their plan and has booked passage on the same ship. Dimmesdale, leaving the church after his sermon, sees Hester and Pearl standing before the town scaffold. He impulsively mounts the scaffold with his lover and his daughter, and confesses publicly, exposing a scarlet letter seared into the flesh of his chest. He falls dead, as Pearl kisses him. Frustrated in his 。
2.紅字 中hester和pearl人物分析（英文）
Hester Prynne: Boston settler who commits adultery and bears a child while awaiting the arrival of her husband from Europe. Authorities require her to wear a piece of red cloth in the shape of an A (standing for adulteress) on the bodice of her dress to identify her as a sinner. She refuses to identify her partner in sin. Hester is named after the title character of an Old Testament book. In that book, Esther–a Jew who marries the King of Persia, Ahasuerus (Xerxes I)–and her cousin Mordecai persuade the king to spare the lives of Jews previously singled out for annihilation. The Jewish festival of Purim, also called the Feast of Lots, celebrates their deliverance from the Persian sword.
Pearl: Hester's child. As her name suggests, she is something good that came from sin. She is also a constant reminder–to Hester and to the townspeople–of Hester's sinfulness. At times, she is an unruly child, a burden to her mother. But Hester loves her just the same

4.《紅字》人物性格分析
丁梅斯代爾是無形的紅字。與海絲特相比，他顯得怯懦，但這是他受宗教束縛彌重的結果。他并非不想公開仟悔自己的“罪孽”，但他的這種愿望過多地同“贖罪”‘內省”等宗教意識糾纏在一起，因此行動上也只能處處受其局絆。他既要受內心的譴責，又要防外界的窺測；他明明有自己的愛，卻偏偏要把這種感情視同邪魔。他在痛苦中掙扎了七年，最終雖然以袒露胸膛上的“罪惡”烙印，完成了道德的凈化與靈魂的飛升，但他始終沒再氣承認自己愛的正當，更談不到與舊的精神體系徹底決裂，與海絲特相比，似乎更加映襯出后者的高大。
齊靈握斯是紅字的制造音。他那丑陋的外貌和畸形的軀體，正是他丑陋和畸形的靈魂的寫照。他選擇了讓丁梅斯代爾話著受煎熬的復仇手段，實際上成了阻止他贖罪的惡魔。他和海絲特的結合雖然出于他追求家庭溫暖和個人幸福的一已之私，但畢竟是一種愛，原也無可厚非；但當這種愛轉變成恨，把復仇作為生活目標，不惜拋棄“博愛”的基督精神，以嚙噬他人的靈魂為樂之后，反倒由被害者墮落成“最壞的罪人”，不但在失去復仇這一生活目標時結束了自己的生命，而且死后也不會得到新生。
小珠兒則是活的紅字，“是另一種形式的紅字，是被賦予了生命的紅字！”這個私生的小精靈和她母親胸前的紅字交相輝映，既是“罪惡”的產物又是愛情的結晶。海絲特把紅字用金色絲線裝飾得十分華美，小珠兒也給打扮得鮮麗異常。她的美勃齊靈漫斯的丑形成強烈對比：一方面體觀了作者的浪漫主義觀點一老醫生的博學多識使他成為深受文咖虧染的社會人面小女孩肆元忌憚的狂野則仍保持著自然人的純真；另方面又表明了作者的宗教意識——齊靈涯斯既然是撤旦，小珠兒便是“天使”（Angel）,“A”字在她身上，從而具備了更積極的合義。恰拾是在這個含義上，寄托了作者美好的理想，也體現了他對宗教的幻想，
霍桑是一位世界觀相當復雜的作家，他選擇愛情悲劇作為《紅字》的主題，使自己深深陷入難解的矛盾之中。愛情本是人類的天性，但按照基督教義。亞當和夏娃偷吃了伊甸園的智慧之果，懂得了男歡女愛，不再靠上帝創造而由自已繁衍人類，這本身正是“原罪”，至于私情，更觸犯了基督教的第七戒。霍桑雖深受教會影響，但自從歐洲文藝復興以來，愛情早已成了文藝作品永恒的主題，時時受到歌頌，他即使再保守，也不會不認為這是天經地義的了。于是，書中便處處可見作者難言的苦衷：他雖然譴責不合理的婚姻，甚至把男女主人公的愛情說成是“神圣的貢獻”，但不敢肯定不合“法”的感情，更不肯使有情人終成眷屬。他只能讓齊靈渥斯在死前“良心發現”，把遺產全部留給珠兒。
5.求《紅字》的英文簡介
來自《紅字》英文原版的簡介：the scarlet letter was declared a classic almost immediately after its publication in 1850, and it has stayed in print and in favor ever since. it has been hailed both as the first symbolic novel and as the first psychological novel(even though it was written before there was a science called psychology). but what really secures the place of the scarlet letter in the literary history is its treatment of human nature, sin, guilt, and pride--all timeless, universal themes--from a uniquely american point of * the decades that followed the american revolution, the united states struggled to distinguish itself culturally from europe. there was a sense that if the united states were to become a great nation, it needed to have its own artistic traditions, not transplanted imitations of european models. hawthorne rose to this challenge. the scarlet letter is set in the mid-seventeenth century in a puritan colony on the edge of an untamed forest still inhabited by native americans. the landscape is wholly american. in the book, hawthorne manages to put his finger on several thematic elements that came to define the american national identity: the effects of the strict religious morality, the long struggle against a vast frontier, the troubled relationship between white settlers and native americans. these issues were just as relevant in hawthorne's day as they were in puritan times, and the way americans and the united states government addressed these issues shaped the development of the * is perhaps even more remarkable about this 150-year-old story if that its characters face the same moral struggles as readers in the twenty-first century. in puritan massachusetts, morality was strictly legislated and church and state were one and the same. although church and state have been separate legally since the bill of rights was ratified in 1791, issues of morality, personal freedom, and public life are still hot topics of national debate. should politicans be called to account for their personal lives? must public figures serve as role models? does our government have a right to make laws controlling, private behavior? in puritan colonies, sinners were often branded with a hot iron and put up on a scaffold for public mockery. we no longer use actual branding irons on the people whose moral failings we condemn. but modern media are far more effective than scaffolds for holding people up for public scrutiny, and the american public's readiness to judge the sins of others remains just as strong as it was 350 years ago. modern readers will see much of themselves in the characters of the scarlet letter. 。
