The Scarlet letter Middle

Throughout the middle of The Scarlet Letter the themes are presented quite evidently. The overwelming theme of sin comes out especially after the first scene where Hester is required to publically present herself to shame because of her adultury. The novel depics her and the changed that her Sin has had on the lives of herself, Pearl, Dimmsdale, and Chillingworth. Her sin put her in to a state of true lonliness with only Pearl at her side.  Throughout this time in her life Hester recieves a large amount of unforgiveness from the people familiar with the meaning of the scarlet letter A. This lack of forgiveness was possibly due to the fact that the towns people seemd to use Hester as a scapegoat, people felt free to mock her for her public problems, but denied their own sins as equal.
