Twayne Publishers: Boston, 1986.\n\nBaym discusses the impact of Hawthorne\u2019s famous work, its approach toward tragedy, structure, dynamics, psychology, symbolism, allegory and a number of other themes and ideas. The author also offers a review of previous critical responses to the book. The chapter on characters contains vital information on Hester and the themes chapter has a section on women and society. The book also discusses Hester as a heroine and what makes her a heroine.\n\nBercovitch, Sacvan. <em>The Office of The Scarlet Letter<\/em>. Johns Hopkins University Press: Baltimore, 1991.\n\nThis book is an in-depth analysis and interpretation of <em>The Scarlet Letter<\/em>. While the book tends to focus on ideology, interpretation, and criticism, the author does offer some insight into Hester and her individualism. A contributing book to the subject, but not something I will use much of for my paper.\n\nBrackett, Virginia. <em>Classic Love and Romance Literature: An Encyclopedia of Works, Characters, Authors, and Themes<\/em>. ABC-CLIO, Inc.: Santa Barbara, CA, 1999.\n\nThis encyclopedia contains a number of topics including people, places, names, and things dealing with the Romantic time period. The amount of information, however, for each one is limited; perhaps because there is only one volume. Topics related to this paper found in the encyclopedia include Byronic Hero, Jane Eyre, Rhett Butler, <em>Don Juan<\/em>, Bronte, Heathcliff, and Gothic tradition.\n\nMcFarland Pennell, Melissa. <em>Student Companion to Nathaniel Hawthorne<\/em>. Greenwood Press: Westport, CT, 1999.\n\nMcFaland\u2019s book explains on an elementary level the life of Nathaniel Hawthorne and his works. Her chapter on <em>The Scarlet Letter<\/em> discusses the Custom-House, setting, plot, structure, characters, themes, symbols, historical context, and feminist criticism. The most important information for my paper will be the section on characters and on feminist criticism. She talks a lot about Hester and about Hester as a heroine. She also discusses the book in light of feminist criticism, which is key because I would like to look at the idea of Hester as a Byronic Hero in terms of various criticisms and interpretations.\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--exercises\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Exercise 1<\/p>\n\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\n\n1.
