Abstract: This article delves into the themes of guilt and societal condemnation in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s novel, The Scarlet Letter. Set in 17th-century Puritan Massachusetts, the story revolves around Hester Prynne, a woman ostracized and marked with a scarlet letter ‘A’ for her perceived sin of adultery. The concept of guilt and public shaming is explored through the lens of Hester’s experiences, as well as the relentless pursuit of her secret lover, Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, by his own inner torment. The article employs insights from the field of psychology to examine the psychological toll of guilt and social judgment on the characters’ mental health. Additionally, it delves into the broader themes of moral hypocrisy, societal expectations, and the consequences of living in a judgmental community. This analysis offers a fresh perspective on the enduring relevance of The Scarlet Letter and its exploration of the human psyche under the weight of societal condemnation.
