A classic is any work of art or literature that people have enjoyed over the years. "The Scarlet Letter" fits the definition. Many books were published during those years. Very few exist today. Most of them that exist are in the basement of some university library where some scholar will look at them once every several years. On the other hand, many people will read, "The Scarlet Letter," this year. That makes it a classic. Hawthorne wrote many other works. At one time a number of people thought "The House of the Seven Gables," would become a classic. Interest has dropped and that does not seem to be the case. Instead, the classic is about the woman rejected by her husband and society, who can't get a divorce, and who can not live with her lover.
Hawthorne wrote The Scarlet Letter to explore themes of sin, guilt, and redemption in Puritan society. He used the story to critique the harsh judgment and repression of individuality in his contemporary society, while also delving into the complexities of human nature and morality. Through the characters of Hester Prynne, Dimmesdale, and Pearl, Hawthorne creates a narrative that challenges societal norms and highlights the power of inner strength and self-acceptance.
