In the "red letter", Hester was punished for an affair relationship with Pastor Din Mesdale, and a child named Pearl was born. Due to adultery, the Puritan social authority she lived for her to wear a red letter on her chest, which means that the public can not guarantee that the public will see her red letters and pearls throughout the community Standing on the scaffold in front But in practice, Hester is "red" and there is social alienation and it is sentenced to life imprisonment for the reason that the community is looking at foreigners contaminants .

" As Hawthorne wrote, Hester's sorry, came, it did not carry out its mission.

In "red letters" written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the symbol, especially the letter "A" plays an important role. The letter "A" or "red letter" represents direct adultery, and the owner Hester and the pastor Mr. Ding Mesdale bear the burden. Because the letter "A" is a symbol of sin and awkwardness, or at least a means, it has a deeper meaning than affair. The letter 'A' signifies the sign of the が, but it develops throughout the story and keeps their beliefs. In order to strengthen their power, the government pays close attention to people and makes everyone vulnerable; life is too fast, there is not much time to think about the world. Like the suppression of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "red letter", the hero's Hester Prinn violated the strict rules of the Puritan community and was abandoned by the public.
