问题 What’s the theme of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s Young Goodman Brown?

选项

答案A. Young Goodman Brown is essentially an allegory. It is concerned with a young Puritan who attends a witches’s Sabbath in the woods. B. Goodman Brown’s journey is a symbolic journey of discovering sin and evil in human hearts. The discovery is horrible in that it makes Brown a distrust and doubtful man forever. C. In dealing with the theme of guilt and sin, Hawthorne exemplifies the "power of blackness". D. The story faithfully reflects Hawthorne’s Puritan belief: "There is evil in every human heart, which may remain latent,perhaps,through the whole life;but circumstances may rouse it to activity. "
