　　摘要：《红字》使美国作家纳撒尼尔霍桑誉满全球。霍桑是一个虔诚的基督徒，并深受神学的影响。他是
　　如此沉迷于宗教的教义之中，人们几乎可以发现神在他的每部作品中无处不在。读完《红字》，给人印象
　　最深的莫过于故事描绘的《圣经》的精神。该书主要讨论了关于罪与赎罪的问题。海丝特白兰是小说的女
　　主人公。本文主要研究她的一生以说明《圣经》对霍桑的影响。海丝特白兰犯了通奸罪，并被迫在胸口上
　　带一个大写的红色字母“a”。一开始，她遭遇了各种各样的磨难，既有来自社会的也有来自她自己精神
　　上的。然而，她认识到了自己的罪行并尽最大努力去赎罪，并且她并没有选择逃避责罚。最后，通过她的
　　努力，神原谅了她。简言之，本文的主要目的就是罪行以及赎罪。
　　关键字：《红字》，海丝特白兰，《圣经》,罪行以及赎罪。
