They simply regard her as a fallen or scarlet woman instead of penetrating her tragic trace of life and her waken spirits against the male-dominated society of stepping on the top of a graceful female.

Since the first Chinese translation of The Scarlet Letter appears in the 1950’s, scholars and readers in this country have shown an ever-increasing interest in his works. Its immortal enchantment lies in not only its condemnation of the negative impact of puritan society on people’s spirit, but also its affirmation of female’s position and value. This part includes three aspects: The introduction of author, his work The Scarlet Letter and the protagonist Hester Prynne.1.1 The author Nathaniel HawthorneWith the publication of The Scarlet Letter in 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne becomes famous as the greatest writer living then in the United States (as indeed some critics put it) and his reputation as a major American author has been on the increase ever since. In fact, his puzzles with the sin are uncertainty to his life, which can be found from his works, especially in The Scarlet Letter, and most of his thoughts can be reflected from Hester Prynne. In another word, in this novel the woman also leaves us the impression that she is a contradicted woman, especially her compromised attitude to her husband at first. As the plot develops, her strongness is exposed gradually. What’s more, in the author’s mind, the woman’s sin is the mode of all humans’, and the original sin never gets away easily. Her strong nature and weak behavior are the exact reflection of Hawthorne’s contradiction in thinking. In addition, Hester’s struggle against the society properly embodies the author’s resentment in hisheart.1.2 The introduction to The Scarlet LetterThe Scarlet Letter is Nathaniel Hawthorne’s masterpiece. It is published in 1850. The story is set in the puritan society of the 17th century. An aged English scholar, Roger Chillingworth sends his beautiful wife Hester Prynne to make their new home in New England .When he comes over two years later, he is surprised to see his wife in pillory, wearing a scarlet letter “A” on her breast and holding her illicit child in her Here the author, Hawthorne portrays her stubbornness, dismissive view to authorities elaborately. Hester, as a woman, she can not break away completely from her softness, some of a weakness even submission to an extent. Because of this, when her husband compromises with her apparently in order to tempt her to speak out who is her adulterer, she really performs guilt and sorry for her husband as she admitted “ thou knoewest that I was frank with thee. I felt no love, nor feined any” (Hawthorne, 2001: 22) .Although she does not give away the secret to her husband, she gives a certain concession on the condition that she never reveals her husband’s real identity which provides her husband a good chance to carry out his plot of revenge accordingly. When she is kept out of the prison wearing the scarlet letter on her bosom as a punishment all her life, neither does she put it down nor choose to escape but accepts it willingly, her action of honesty promotes her to be positive to her dark life.“I might endure his agony, as well as mine”(Hawthorne, 2001: 17). For her love, she can endure all threatening as well as insults.2.2.3Hester Prynne’s kindnessOn the surface, Hester’s kindness seems to be against the original sin, as is insisted by Christians all the time, but the author still introduces us her kindness during her penance. In fact, it also reflects the author’s suspicious to the rules of Christianity.（本页需加注页眉）（顶部空一行）Notes（空一行）○1 The chart shows ……………. ○2 It is well accepted in this area that …………………….（顶部空一行）References（空一行）[1] Chang Yaoxin.
