Type in the co  The Scarlet Letter Journal entry #1 1.The reason I selected this novel is because the Title sounded interesting. When I went to the Library I read the summary and found out it had to do with Judgment and civil practices on moral laws and regulations in which I find great interest since I plan to study Law in college. 2.I needed to know the time frame in which the setting of the novel takes place along with the location of the setting. (Which country since all Nations have different cultures and beliefs). 3.A member of the town Hester Prynne has committed what seems to be an immoral act according to the town and the officials in charge. 4.The Author is describing the setting of the town now and how it was two century’s ago when the people of the town are all awaiting outside the iron-clamped oaken door of the prison to cast judgment and persecution upon a member of the town named Hester Prynne whom disgraced the town by her actions. 5.The author Nathaniel Hawthorne is telling the story. 6.The setting begins in Massachusetts Bay Colony which is known today as Boston. This setting is important because it was shortly after wards of the first settlers in this region of New England. Because everything was new including rules and authority positions over Moral and ethical behavior the setting is perfect for this novel. 7.The main Character Hester Prynne is being persecuted and charged by the community in which she lives for committing what seems to be an inexcusable act. 8.The author is keeping my interest in the story so far by not letting me find out exactly how the main character Hester Prynee will be charged for her offence and how will she be able to live in a town where everyone will be avoiding her. ntent of your page here.
