Why do you think Hawthorne wrote The Scarlet Letter?

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.

Does The Scarlet Letter Take place over 10 years?

The main plot of the story emcompasses approxiamtely 7 years, using Pearl's age as a reference.At the beginning of the story when Pearl is first shown to us with Hester in Chapter II: "The Market-Place" she's 3 months old. In Chapter XXIII: "The Revelation of the Scarlet Letter," however, Pearl is seven years old.So, with that, from Hester standing on the scaffold to Arthur Dimmesdale's death is about 7 years.After that is a mystery, though, since Hawthorne only ever says that Hester and Pearl leave for England about a year after Dimmesdale's death.The years spent in England up to Hester's return to Boston are even more vague, only stating that it had been "many years."Later Hawthorne goes on and tells us that Hester lives out the rest of her days in her old cottage, so that too, is left up to speculation, but, yes, the main plot of the story takes places approximately 7 years.
