Natalija [7]3 years ago

There are actually many indications in the Scarlet Letter which show us that Pearl feels Dimmesdale is actually her father.

For example:
1. she shows affection towards him like any child would for their parent, thus giving us the impression she feels a special closeness to him - "stole softly towards him, and taking his hand in the grasp of both her own, laid her cheek against it.”

2. she asks Dimmesdale if he will stand on the scaffold along with Hester and herself when she will confess to her sins - meaning that she feels he is somehow included in Hester's sin, which is true, given that he is her father although Hester is married to another man

3. she understands the connection between Hester's scarlet letter on her chest and Dimmesdale's behavior - when asked about why her mother has that letter, she says: "It is for the same reason the minister puts his hand over his heart!”

Discuss the theme of individual conscience versus society and how it relates to the theme of freedom. Use evidence from the text
antiseptic1488 [7]
<span>Answer: Huck must examine his conscience throughout the story. Huck's own value system often comes in conflict with Southern white views on issues like racism and organized religion. Huck not only longs to free himself from the physical confines of his being but from the social confines of a very homogenous, and ignorant, status-quo, "I said I wouldn't, and I'll stick to it. Honest INJUN, I will. People would call me a low-down Abolitionist and despise me for keeping mum – but that don't make no difference. I ain't a-going to tell, and I ain't a-going back there, anyways. So, now, le's know all about it."</span>
