It took me eighteen years to realize what an extraordinary influence my mother has been on my life. She's the kind of person who has thoughtful discussions about which artist she would most want to have her portrait painted by (Sargent), the kind of mother who always has time for her four children, and the kind of community leader who has a seat on the board of every major project to assist Washington's impoverished citizens. Growing up with such a strong role model, I developed many of her enthusiasms. I not only came to love the excitement of learning simply for the sake of knowing something new, but I also came to understand the idea of giving back to the community in exchange for a new sense of life, love, and spirit.

My mother's enthusiasm for learning is most apparent in travel. I was nine years old when my family visited Greece. Every night for three weeks before the trip, my older brother Peter and I sat with my mother on her bed reading Greek myths and taking notes on the Greek Gods. Despite the fact that we were traveling with fourteen-month-old twins, we managed to be at each ruin when the site opened at sunrise. I vividly remember standing in an empty ampitheatre pretending to be an ancient tragedian, picking out my favorite sculpture in the Acropolis museum, and inserting our family into modified tales of the battle at Troy. Eight years and half a dozen passport stamps later I have come to value what I have learned on these journeys about global history, politics and culture, as well as my family and myself.

1. What IS the revelation of The Scarlet Letter? How do you interpret it? 2. How has it changed throughout the course of the nov
algol [13]

Answer:

The Scarlet Letter is written by Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1850.

Explanation:

1. The <em>Revelation of The Scarlet Letter</em> in the "The Scarlet Letter" by Nathaniel Hawthorne, is Dimmesdale reveals at the scaffold his sin. he confesses before the crowd what he should have revealed seven years before, that he is the father of Pearl. And that he deserves punishment.

My interpretation to this is that though Dimmesdale correctly confessed his sin, which he should have done earlier, but the punishment he chose for himself was not right. God is a merciful God, if he had confessed his sin, God would have definitely forgiven him. Just like God forgave King David. But the condition is of course not to repeat after repenting.

2. The symbolism of Scarlet Letter "A" changed over the course of the novel. At first it represented for Adulteress, then it changed to "Able.

3. The final stand on scaffold is vital as it reveals that Dimmesdale was the  one, the fellow-sinner of Hester.

4. Pearl is changed into a woman after she kisses Dimmesdale.

5. The townspeople interpret this by saying that not only Hester but a minister can fall victim of sin.

6. Chillingworth dies <em>"withered up, shrivelled away and almost vanished from mortal sight.."</em>
