摘要:《红字》使美国作家纳撒尼尔霍桑誉满全球。霍桑是一个虔诚的基督徒,并深受神学的影响。他是
如此沉迷于宗教的教义之中,人们几乎可以发现神在他的每部作品中无处不在。读完《红字》,给人印象
最深的莫过于故事描绘的《圣经》的精神。该书主要讨论了关于罪与赎罪的问题。海丝特白兰是小说的女
主人公。本文主要研究她的一生以说明《圣经》对霍桑的影响。海丝特白兰犯了通奸罪,并被迫在胸口上
带一个大写的红色字母“a”。一开始,她遭遇了各种各样的磨难,既有来自社会的也有来自她自己精神
上的。然而,她认识到了自己的罪行并尽最大努力去赎罪,并且她并没有选择逃避责罚。最后,通过她的
努力,神原谅了她。简言之,本文的主要目的就是罪行以及赎罪。
关键字:《红字》,海丝特白兰,《圣经》,罪行以及赎罪。
