Scarlet Letter
Nathaniel Hawthorne（1804—1864), the author of Scarlet Letter, was born in Massachusetts, America.He is a novelist，short story writer，and central figure in American Literature Renaissance, starting the psychoanalytical tradition.His fictions focus on the description of society, the dark sides of human being nature, and the inherent sin and evil of humanity.Scarlet Letter was published in 1850.The story is based on a true love story , happening during 1642～1649 in Boston, which at that time is a puritan colony in north America on the edge of an untamed forest still inhabited by native Americans.This romantic masterpiece tells us a story about the conflict between love and hatred, courage and timidity, humanity and religious belief.Hester Prynne, a young, beautiful, clever woman.Unfortunately, she marries Roger Chilliworth, an old deformed and hypocritical physician.During their migration to north America , Roger is captured by the local Indians, so Hester Prynne has to live alone as a widow.During Roger’s absence, Hester becomes acquainted and fall in love with Arthur Dimmesdale, who is a young and brilliant clergyman in Boston.However it is impossible for them to get married at that time in the puritan society, merely because no one knows whether her husband is still alive or not.What is worse, Hester is accused of adultery against his husband and thrown into jail after her giving birth to her daughter — Pearl.As punishment, she is forced to stand on a high gallows in a crowded market and confess her lover.With a conspicuous A on her bosom and the little baby in her arms, Hester suffers the unimaginable agony and humiliation, however, when Arthur,the
lover and the most noble clergyman,is forced by the governor to force Hester confess the truth to public, she refuse to reveal anything about the baby＇s father.The long-lost Roger Chilliworth shows up in front of the gallows.They recognized each other but both of them chose to be silent.He goes to Hester’s cell to see Hester in the name of seeing his patients——Hester and Pearl.Hester refuses to tell him who the baby’s father is.Roger threatens Hester not to tell anyone his status or he will destroy that man’s everything.Since then Roger sets up his mind to find out the man who makes him a husband of faithless woman and take the most vicious revenge on him.After discharged from the prison, Hester lives in a small thatched cottage on the outskirts of Boston.She earns her living by doing excellent needlework for the local celebrities.She often finances the poor with the money earnes with hard work.After 7 years, Hester is widely respected by all the circles of the puritan society for her tolerance helpfulness and generosity.During the seven year’s time, Roger finds Arthur the very man who makes him humiliated.He tries to approach Arthur and becomes the medical adviser of Arthur.On the one hand, he pretends to rescue Arthur from his illness.On the other hand, he tortures Arthur by using his sentimental character of mind.Arthur is poisoned so deeply by his religious belief that he dare not let his secrets known by the public.Hester and Arthur have ever tried to meet in the jungle and plan to escape from Boston and begin their new life in Europe.But their plan is destroyed by Roger.Then Arthur becomes totally desperate.During a procession, after Arthur makes a
successful speech and passes the gallows, he gets rid of Roger and steps up the gallows with Hester and Pearl, after confessing his secrets, this tortured soul collapses.With no one to take revenge on, Roger’s life loses its meaning and become withered soon.Scarlet Letter has been hailed as a typical symbolic, psychoanalytical and romantic novel.In my viewpoint, three aspects of significance secure the place of this opus in American literary history.First its treatment of human nature, sin, and pride from a unique American point of view reflects the puritan belief which is deeply rooted in the author’s soul;second, the description and analysis of people’s psychology are subtle and detailed.For instance, the portrayal of Hester’s thoughts when she is on the high gallows is so vivid that the reader might feel as if they were they were there in person;third, the usage of symbolism is skillful.For example, at first, the scarlet letter ‘A’ is used as a symbol of Hester’s adultery against Roger, however, in the end it becomes a symbol of being able and admirable because she atonesfor her sin through the purity and goodness of her soul.Scarlet Letter is highly respected on its publishing, with time going by, its great significance has been increasingly analyzed and accepted.

文化建设成为国家战略的重点关注领域，体育文化研究亦跟风成为体育学界的大件事。在中国式研究热点的背后，很显然、很直白的告诉我们，热点并不代表研究前沿。我们还在借鉴中**学科文化学和闭门造车的时刻，国外已经著述等身，亟待跳出中国氛围看体育文化。年初《上海体育学院学报》和《体育文化导刊》均大手笔的征稿体育文化学研究专题，取得了较好的效果。这里选择的是域外视野，旨在开拓学界研究空间，与国际话语与概念接轨，希望感兴趣并有一定理论积累的学友助力前行。
