摘要
描写社会和人性的阴暗面是霍桑作品的突出特点,《红字》是其中之一。这部作品突出了他本人独特的思想和对人性的理解。《红字》通过海丝特的人生之梦、丁梅斯代尔的救赎之梦和齐灵渥斯的罪恶之梦,在揭露社会罪恶和人性丑恶的同时,对善良的主人公寄予了极大的同情,肯定了人性的主导地位。
The Scarlet Letter is one of Hawthorne's works which feature the descriptions of the seamy side of human nature and society. The work highlights Hawthorne's unique thought and understanding of human nature. It sympathizes with the kind-hearted heroine while profoundly revealing social evils and human disgraces and approves the leading role of human nature through the narration of the dreams by Hester, Dimmesdale and Chillingworth respectively.
