True to the form of romance, Nathanial Hawthorne's stories are typically set in the (seemingly) distant past, thought the writer inevitably handles his material with a nineteenth-century sentiment. In what ways, then, does Hawthorne rewrite America's colonial legacy as he represents it? Using examples from his stories, show how Hawthorne reconsiders topics such as the Puritan traditions, women's status, minority issues, etc., and departs from the conventional attitudes held by his characters of an earlier era. 2. In "The Purloined Letter," Dupin uses two instances of games to illustrate different ways of reasoning (p. 718 and p. 721). How does the idea of game apply to the relation between the characters in the story? How about that between the author and the reader? Can these observations be applied to Edgar Allan Poe's other writings? --
