• The scarlet letter A that Hester is forced to wear is finely embroidered with gold-
colored thread. As both a mark of shame and a beautifully wrought human artifact, it
reflects the many oppositions in the novel, such as those between order and
transgression, civilization and wilderness, and adulthood and childhood. The more
society strives to keep out wayward passion, the more it reinforces the split between
appearance and reality. The members of the community who are ostensibly the most
respectable are often the most depraved, while the apparent sinners are often the
most virtuous.
• The Scarlet Letter effectively demonstrate the emergence of individualism and self-
reliance from America’s Puritan and conformist roots.
