It occurs predominantly between Hester and Dimmesdale in the story. Their ability to go through so much but then in the end come together like they did in the forest interview. Where there undying unbreakable love shines through. A story of true love than a story of simply sinful love as portrayed mostly in the story.]]> 2018-09-16 22:13:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282045154 sp01452 https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282075849 The most recognizable theme throughout the story is undeniably sin. Through committing the crime of adultery Hester Prynne is seen as the "bad guy" throughout the remainder of the story. She is forced to pay for her actions whether it was the standing on the scaffold for three hours or being forced to wear the scarlet letter through the whole story, the idea of her sinning and sin as a whole is always present. ]]> 2018-09-17 01:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282075849 sp01452 https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282075923 While yes, she is a character in the story, pearl is more important than that overall.

One particularly is the triumph of nature over man made contrivances. But another substantial one could be the symbol of growth or blossoming of hester throughout the story. A hint of foreshadowing you could say. ]]> 2018-09-17 01:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282075958 sp01452 https://padlet.com/sp01452/fd7dfot1w6uh/wish/282076084 Founded by the Massachusetts bay company during the great puritan migration in the 17th century.
