Hawthorne and Melville differ from Transcendentalists, in a sense that their writings were not so focused on nature and the subliminal aspect of what surrounds us. Their style leaned more towards Romanticism or dark romanticism to be more specific. They focused on more on guilt, sin and dark feelings. A lot of their writings can be related to Puritanism in the early New England colonies. you can see this trait come out in Hawthorne's The Scarlet letter, where the entire story is focused on one woman's sins an her pathway to redemption in the town.

Anti-Transcendentalism was a literary movement that essentially consisted of three writers: Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, and Herman Melville. Hawthorne and Melville were the most prolific in the genre, though all these men are easily some of the greatest fiction writers of their time. In opposition to the Transcendentalists, their work focused on the limitations and destructiveness of the human spirit. Whereas Transcendentalists believed that truth and happiness could be found though human feelings, intuition, and spirit, Anti-Transcendentalists believed that, at their cores, humans were generally evil, bitter, and sinful beings. Some examples of Anti-Transcendentalist works include: The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables, and The Marble Faun, The Raven, Moby-Dick, and The Fall of the House of Usher.
