The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne (Adapted by Joseph Cowley}
Author: Joseph Cowley
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1469709325
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
Nathaniel Hawthorne was born at Salem, Mass., on July 4th, 1804. He led a shy and rather somber life with little encouragement to write, yet not wholly uncongenial in view of his temperament. His life is reflected in his "Twice-Told Tales" and other short stories, the product of his first literary period. In these stories, his understanding of men and women was displayed with great subtlety. He was forty-six years old when "The Scarlet Letter" appeared. It is considered his best work, and is a good demonstration of his unique and imaginative mind. In 1850, the year "The Scarlet Letter" appeared, he began "The House of the Seven Gables," a later romance or prose-tragedy of the Puritan-America as he knew it - missing art and the joy of life.

Hawthorne's Short Stories
Author: Nathaniel Hawthorne
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307741214
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
Twenty-four of the best short stories by one of the early masters of the form, in the definitive collection edited by acclaimed scholar Newton Arvin. Nathaniel Hawthorne was one of the greatest American writers of the nineteenth century, and some of his most powerful work was in the form of fable-like tales that make rich use of allegory and symbolism. The dark beauty and moral force of his imagination are evident in such enduring masterpieces as "Young Goodman Brown," in which a young man who believes he has witnessed a satanic initiation can never see his pious neighbors the same way again; “Rappaccini's Daughter," about a lovely young girl who has been raised in isolation among dangerous poisons; and "The Birthmark," in which a scientist obsessed with perfection destroys the flaw that makes his otherwise flawless wife both beautiful and human.
