Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scarlet Letter by American author Nathaniel Hawthorne was published in 1850. This work of historical fiction is considered to be a masterpiece of American literature and a classic moral study. Set in 17th-century Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony from 1642 to 1649 the novel tells the story of Hester Prynne, who conceives a daughter through an affair and refuses to reveal her lover’s identity. Hester believes herself to be a widow, but her husband, Roger Chillingworth, returns to New England very much alive and conceals his identity. He finds his wife forced to wear the scarlet letter A on her dress as punishment for her sin and her secrecy. Chillingworth becomes obsessed with finding the identity of his wife’s former lover. Hester struggles to create a new life of repentance and dignity. When it’s revealed that her lover is a saintly young minister, Dimmesdale, who is the leader of those exhorting her to name the child’s father, he is tormented until stricken by guilt, becomes ill and publicly confesses his adultery before dying in Hester’s arms. Hester herself is revealed to be a self-reliant heroine who is never truly repentant for committing adultery with the minister and feels that their act was consecrated by their deep love for each other. She begins a new life with her daughter in Europe and years later upon her return to New England, she continues to wear the scarlet letter. After her death she is buried next to Dimmesdale and on their joint tombstone is a description of the scarlet A.

Book Synopsis Selected Tales and Sketches by : Nathaniel Hawthorne
Download or read book Selected Tales and Sketches written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1987-03-03 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short fiction of a writer who helped to shape the course of American literature. With a determined commitment to the history of his native land, Nathaniel Hawthorne revealed, more incisively than any writer of his generation, the nature of a distinctly American consciousness. The pieces collected here deal with essentially American matters: the Puritan past, the Indians, the Revolution. But Hawthorne was highly - often wickedly - unorthodox in his account of life in early America, and his precisely constructed plots quickly engage the reader's imagination. Written in the 1820s, 30s, and 40s, these works are informed by themes that reappear in Hawthorne's longer works: The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables and The Blithedale Romance. And, as Michael J. Colacurcio points out in his excellent introduction, they are themes that are now deeply embedded in the American literary tradition.
Book Synopsis Nathaniel Hawthorne: Collected Novels (LOA #10) by : Nathaniel Hawthorne
Download or read book Nathaniel Hawthorne: Collected Novels (LOA #10) written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Library of America. This book was released on 1983-04-15 with total page 1308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in a richly suggestive style, Hawthorne’s five world-famous novels are permeated by his own history as well as America’s In The House of the Seven Gables, Nathaniel Hawthorne alludes to his ancestor’s involvement in the Salem witch trials, as he follows the fortunes of two rival families, the Maules and the Pyncheons. The novel moves across 150 years of American history, from an ancestral crime condoned by Puritan theocracy to reconciliation and a new beginning in the bustling Jacksonian era. Considered Hawthorne’s greatest work, The Scarlet Letter is a dramatic allegory of the social consequences of adultery and the subversive force of personal desire in a community of laws. The transgression of Hester Prynne and Arthur Dimmesdale, the innate lawlessness of their bastard child Pearl, and the torturous jealousy of the husband Roger Chillingworth eventually erupt through the stern reserve of Puritan Boston. The Scarlet Letter engages the moral and romantic imagination of readers who ponder the question of sexual freedom and its place in the social world. Fanshawe is an engrossing apprentice work that Hawthorne published anonymously and later sought to suppress. Written during his undergraduate years at Bowdoin College, it is a tragic romance of an ascetic scholar’s love for a merchant’s daughter. The Blithedale Romance is a novel about the perils, which Hawthorne knew first-hand, of living in a utopian community. The utilitarian reformer Hollingsworth, the reticent narrator Miles Coverdale, the unearthly Priscilla, and the sensuous Zenobia (purportedly modeled on Margaret Fuller) act out a drama of love and rejection, idealism and chicanery, millennial hope and suicidal despair on an experimental commune in rural Massachusetts. The Marble Faun, Hawthorne’s last finished novel, uses Italian landscapes where sunlight gives way to mythological shadings as a background for mysteries of identity and murder. Its two young Americans, Kenyon and Hilda, become caught up in the disastrous passion of Donatello, an ingenuous nobleman, for the beautiful, mysterious Miriam, a woman trying to escape her past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""At about six o'clock I looked over the edge of my bed and saw that Julian was awake, peeping sideways at me." Each day starts early and is mostly given over to swimming and skipping stones, berry-picking and subduing armies of thistles. There are lots of questions ("It really does seem as if he has baited me with more questions, references, and observations, than mortal father ought to be expected to endure"), a visit to a Shaker community, domestic crises concerning a pet rabbit, and some poignant moments of loneliness ("I went to bed at about nine and longed for Phoebe"). And one evening Mr. Herman Melville comes by to enjoy a late-night discussion of eternity over cigars."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Nathaniel Hawthorne in His Times written by James R. Mellow and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If I were to read only one book about Hawthorne, this might well be my choice" - Malcolm Cowley In Nathaniel Hawthorne in His Times, a book that re-creates an age as faithfully as a series of brilliant daguerreotypes, master biographer James R. Mellow shows us America's first great writer (1804-1864) and his contemporaries as living, breathing people.Mellow often draws from Hawthorne's own inimitable letters and notebooks in recounting the long apprenticeship of the handsome, reclusive young author; his romantic courtship of the frail Sophia Peabody; his stimulating, sometimes unsettled relations with fellow pioneers in the formation of American literature: Poe, Emerson, Thoreau, Longfellow, Melville; and later, his acclaim in the dazzling salons of Europe, where he was sought by the ornaments of the age -- the Brownings, Jenny Lind, Fanny Kemble.Hawthorne's times were days of turmoil for a young republic struggling to create a political and cultural life to compare with that of its older European rivals, and at the same time trying to preserve the Union from disastrous civil war. A lifelong friend of the ill-starred president Franklin Pierce, Hawthorne had a political career of his own and was a keen and often caustic observer of the era's great politicians -- among them Webster, Sumner, Buchanan, Douglas, John Brown, and Lincoln -- as well as of the reformers, publicists, and wits of this exciting and complex age.James R. Mellow, known to thousands of grateful readers for his best-selling Charmed Circle: Gertrude Stein and Company, has here produced an unparalleled panorama of nineteenth-century American intellectual life, and a portrait-in-the-round of one of our most significant and enigmatic geniuses. Not since the work of Van Wyck Brooks and F.O. Matthiessen have we had such a comprehensive and enthralling portrait of the building of American culture.James R. Mellow lives in Connecticut on Long Island Sound, in a Federal-period house built on the plan of the Old Manse in Concord. An art and literary critic, Mellow has written on these and other subjects for such publications as the New York Times. the Chicago Tribune, the New Leader, the New Republic. Saturday Review, Commonweal, and Arts Magazine. His earlier biography, Charmed Circle: Gertrude Stein and Company, published in 1974, received the acclaim of critics and readers alike. Mellow is currently working on a life of Margaret Fuller, the second in a series of four interlocking biographies of major nineteenth-century figures.

His literature contains layers of allegory which deepen and enrich the stories. This book contains three novel and three collections of Hawthorne's short stories.
