2、漫主义小说和心理分析小说及象征主义小说的开山之作。该小说讲述了17世纪的波士顿，一个犯了通奸罪的女人（海斯特?普林）和女儿（珍珠）与海斯特情夫（亚瑟?迪梅斯戴尔）、前夫（罗杰?奇林沃思）的爱恨情仇故事。深受清教思想影响的霍桑在红字中反复强调生活中悲观的一面，使读者在读完作品后心中留下三个关键词“孤独”、“痛苦”、“罪”。女主人公海斯特?普林是一个善良、聪明，美丽的姑娘，因与年轻牧师亚瑟?迪梅斯戴尔先生相爱并产下一女而受到政教合一的当局的责罚，罚她胸前永远带着红A字（英文通奸Adultery的缩写）。第二章中，海斯特首次亮相便以其庄重的气质和亮丽的外表使众人无不感到惊讶和震撼，仿佛从牢中走出的海
3、斯特是一位高贵淑女，而非一个罪妇。然而当人们的视线下移，看到她胸前佩戴的闪闪发光的红字时，这红字便即刻产生了一种魔力，使她脱离了一般的人际关系，并自我封闭起来。自此，孤独，痛苦，罪，便陪伴着海斯特走过了余下的生活。海斯特是如此孤独，为了不使心爱之人遭受连累，她毅然独自担起了所有罪行的惩罚。受到众人的唾弃，海斯特便带着孩子住在远离其他居民区的一间小茅屋里，孤立无援，世上没有一个朋友敢亲近她。由于无法从外界得到解脱，海斯特不得不从内心世界寻求帮助-她的记忆和想象中的世界。依靠着坚强，她忍受着众人对于她通奸罪的愤慨。整个故事中，海斯特一直都保持缄默，接受着清教徒上至大人下到孩子对她的欺凌，这种态度使
4、海斯特散发出一股孤傲的气质，但显然，孤傲是无奈之举，如不孤傲，海斯特早就会被这种奇特而孤独的痛苦生活摧毁。海斯特是如此孤单，孤单到小珍珠就是她的全世界。当得知某些头面人物想剥夺她的孩子时，她失去了平日的缄默，失声尖叫，显出一副不怕一切的样子，甚至几近疯狂。她被弃于世，所以才会如此激动得决心不惜牺牲一切来保护她的“世界”。伴随着孤独的是海斯特随处可见的痛苦。从少女时，与罗杰的婚姻就埋葬了海斯特的青春和欢笑。随后与亚瑟的爱情本该是一段才子佳人的美好爱情，但无奈清教教规森严，上帝给了海斯特短暂的快乐后就给了她更为致命的打击。在绞刑架上，她本可以说出亚瑟的名字，得到更大的宽恕，可是她没有这么做，她相信
5、爱情，追求爱情，也勇敢得保护了自己的爱人，情愿用自己单薄的身体去承担双人份的痛苦，独自面对世人对她的咒骂，鄙夷和践踏。A字将海斯特打入了地狱，甚至阳光一旦遇到她和她的红字，就会消失得无影无踪。罪是书中另一个关键词。是以海斯特的通奸罪为本质，以A字为表现形式，以小珍珠为载体，贯穿了整个小说。前两者较容易理解，小珍珠对于海斯特的意义却并非只有女儿那么简单，她是海斯特的罪恶之花。在第八章中，海斯特向总督陈情时说道，珍珠是她的幸福和希望，也是她的磨难，珍珠就是红字。可见，珍珠一面带给海斯特生的希望，一面又时时刻刻提醒着海斯特自己的罪过。她就像A字，无论海斯特出现在哪，她总在身旁。在第十九章中，当海斯特
6、取下A字时，珍珠拒绝来到海斯特的身边，而当海斯特重新戴上A字时，珍珠才又回来，这是多么有意思的一幕，明显得暗示了珍珠与A字有着很大的共性。纵使面对生命如此多的痛苦和不公平，海斯特依然坚强。她用自己的隐忍、善良和宽容为自己和珍珠搭建了一个庇护所，最终盼到了上帝的宽恕。霍桑用细腻的手法，探究了人类心灵的最深处，阐述了自己对于罪恶和天意基本的矛盾态度，创造了一个伟大的传奇女性形象，也早就了这本经典的传世之作。Summary of the Scarlet LetterHester Prynne was a kind, smart and beautiful British girl.
