Hawthornes Characters: Pride Of Intellect

Hawthorne's Role: Proud of Wisdom Many of Hawthorne's characters are proud of their wisdom. The character becomes a victim of their pride and suffers. Goodman Brown of "Young Goodman Brown" and Hooper of "The Minister's Black Veil" are two people who are proud of wisdom. Their pride caused similar problems, even if they came from different backgrounds, they ended up living a similar life after all. Both Hooper and Goodman Brown are isolated from society.

The role and pride of Hawthorn, and intellectual arrogance and egoism fight. They are often isolated and lonely people, and among Hawthorne's so-called "heart", "intelligence" and "heart", feelings are not only away from other people but also from other parts of ourselves I am away. And they are often influenced by their ancestral relationship. They suffer from the past and past influences on the present. Hawthorne is best known for creating Hester Prynne, Arthur Ding Mesdale, Roger Chilling with "Red Letter", but many of his most memorable characters appeared in his career. Short stories in four books: two stories (1837), Moses from ancient Mans (1846), Snow image (1851), and Tanglewood Tales (1853)

This series of iterative themes are supported by a universal personality type. Literary works such as Edmund Spencer, John Milton, William Shakespeare and John Bunyan form the historical background of many Hawthorne's roles, many of which are further developments in his early role type. For example, Fanshawe introduces a fuller, ideal academic hero more fully developed in Dimmesdale. Other people, the quality of abstracted anthropomorphism seems to be a motivation for purely evil purposes. Westervelt is a type, learning and learning in hypnotism, he is using innocent Priscilla as his victim. The literary genealogy of Chillingworth can be traced back to the statue of Milton's devil who has persuasive wisdom that obscures the lack of physical power, although it is old and bent.

Hawthorn also considers pride as evil. He explained in detail the various aspects of the role, body pride, spiritual pride, and intellectual pride (theme). Proud is another important theme of 'red letter'. Hawthorne uses various characteristics of the character to introduce every aspect of pride. For example, Herst's husband, Chillingworth, tolerated evil and was retaliated. The evil behavior of Hester and Dimmesdale hurt his pride. After coming to New England his wisdom, learning, and his extensive knowledge of medical and surgical techniques, in particular, gave him a high social position in town (Hawthorne 108). He lived with Ding Mesdale to heal his pain, but in reality he was tortured and crushed for Dimmesdale's crime. He also tortured Hester. His selfish human observation helped in the production of Roger Chillingworth. With his own pride and selfishness, he was able to create a role of Chillingworth.
