Hawthorne's Scarlet Letter: A Love Story

reprehensible. The relationships between the characters has been
examined in detail. This 5 page paper argues that The Scarlet Letter
is, at it's core, a love story. No additional sources are listed.

Hope Leslie
[ send me this paper ]

[ send me this paper ]
In Gulliver's
Travels, there is a myriad of meaning buried in an entertaining and
macabre representation of period writing. This 6 page paper argues that
Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels must have seemed inaccessible to the
early modern reader with it's underlying theme of mocking the Puritan
ethic, it's satirical form and the romantic style which incorporated
