As the author of The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne has been
established as a major writer of the nineteenth century and the
most prominent chronicler of New England and its colonial history.
This introductory book for students coming to Hawthorne for the
first time outlines his life and writings in a clear and accessible
style. Leland S. Person also explains some of the significant
cultural and social movements that influenced Hawthorne's most
important writings: Puritanism, Transcendentalism and Feminism. The
major works, including The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven
Gables and The Blithedale Romance, as well as Hawthorne's important
short stories and non-fiction, are analysed in detail. The book
also includes a brief history and survey of Hawthorne scholarship,
with special emphasis on recent studies. Students of
nineteenth-century American literature will find this a rewarding
and engaging introduction to this remarkable writer.
