feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Feathertop , 2006 A classic Hawthorne tale is retold and illustrated by the San Souci brothers, now reissued in paperback. Long ago in New England, a powerful witch made a scarecrow from a collection of old scraps. The witch was so pleased with her creation that she decided to bring it to life. The scarecrow was transformed into a handsome young man and christened Feathertop. The mischievous witch then sent Feathertop off to woo the beautiful Polly Gookin, and soon Feathertop and Polly were deeply inlove. But Feathertop was, after all, merely a patchwork of sticks and witchcraft. Only the magic of love could make him truly human. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Feathertop Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2014-05-19 Feathertop is a short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne (born Nathaniel Hathorne; July 4, 1804 - May 19, 1864) was an American novelist and short story writer. He was born in 1804 in Salem, Massachusetts to Nathaniel Hathorne and the former Elizabeth Clarke Manning. His ancestors include John Hathorne, the only judge involved in the Salem witch trials who never repented of his actions. Nathaniel later added a w to make his name Hawthorne in order to hide this relation. He entered Bowdoin College in 1821, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa in 1824, and graduated in 1825. Hawthorne published his first work, a novel titled Fanshawe, in 1828; he later tried to suppress it, feeling it was not equal to the standard of his later work. He published several short stories in various periodicals which he collected in 1837 as Twice-Told Tales. The next year, he became engaged to Sophia Peabody. He worked at a Custom House and joined Brook Farm, a transcendentalist community, before marrying Peabody in 1842. The couple moved to The Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts, later moving to Salem, the Berkshires, then to The Wayside in Concord. The Scarlet Letter was published in 1850, followed by a succession of other novels. A political appointment took Hawthorne and family to Europe before their return to The Wayside in 1860. Hawthorne died on May 19, 1864, and was survived by his wife and their three children. Much of Hawthorne's writing centers on New England, many works featuring moral allegories with a Puritan inspiration. His fiction works are considered part of the Romantic movement and, more specifically, Dark romanticism. His themes often center on the inherent evil and sin of humanity, and his works often have moral messages and deep psychological complexity. His published works include novels, short stories, and a biography of his friend Franklin Pierce. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Feathertop Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2017-11-21 In seventeenth century New England, the witch Mother Rigby builds a scarecrow to protect her garden. She is so taken with her own handiwork that she whimsically decides to bring the scarecrow to life and send it into town to woo Polly Gookin, the daughter of Judge Gookin, with whom Mother Rigby had unspecified prior dealings. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Selected Tales and Sketches Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1987-03-03 The short fiction of a writer who helped to shape the course of American literature. With a determined commitment to the history of his native land, Nathaniel Hawthorne revealed, more incisively than any writer of his generation, the nature of a distinctly American consciousness. The pieces collected here deal with essentially American matters: the Puritan past, the Indians, the Revolution. But Hawthorne was highly - often wickedly - unorthodox in his account of life in early America, and his precisely constructed plots quickly engage the reader's imagination. Written in the 1820s, 30s, and 40s, these works are informed by themes that reappear in Hawthorne's longer works: The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables and The Blithedale Romance. And, as Michael J. Colacurcio points out in his excellent introduction, they are themes that are now deeply embedded in the American literary tradition. |

feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: The Man of Adamant (From: "The Snow Image and Other Twice-Told Tales") Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2022-08-15 In 'The Man of Adamant,' Nathaniel Hawthorne captivates readers with an allegorical tale that explores the rigid dogmatism of its protagonist, a hermit named Richard Digby. This story is among the rich collection in 'The Snow Image and Other Twice-Told Tales,' wherein Hawthorne's mastery of symbolism intertwines with the gothic romance tradition. The narrative, dense with Hawthorne's characteristic dark romanticism, challenges the moralistic rigidity of 19th-century Puritanism, contrasting inflexible piety with the transformative power of nature and human connection. Its literary style is reflective of Hawthorne's broader corpus, where narrative intricacy and profound character introspection take center stage. Nathaniel Hawthorne, a luminary of American literature, brings his acute understanding of the puritanical psyche and deep New England roots to 'The Man of Adamant.' Hawthorne's own ancestral history, interwoven with the Puritan experience and its subsequent guilt, informs his writing, offering a critical examination of isolation and the peril of unyielding righteousness. His insight into the human condition and its complexities allows for a story that is as poignant today as it was in Hawthorne's time. Readers of classic American literature and enthusiasts of allegorical tales will find 'The Man of Adamant' an essential read. The story not only showcases Hawthorne's literary prowess but also serves as a timeless reflection on the dangers of intolerance and the necessity of empathy. As a part of DigiCat Publishing's dedication to preserving such significant works, this story is presented with the care it merits, securing its place in the canon of important world literature and providing a meaningful experience to contemporary readers. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Wakefield Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1905 Jorge Luis Borges creía que en los cuentos de Nathaniel Hawthorne se inaugura el modo particular de ensoñación del cual surgirá el lenguaje oceánico de Herman Melville, las pesadillas de Edgar Allan Poe y las alucinaciones de William Faulkner. De hecho, cuando se les pidió a seis escritores argentinos que nombraran sus relatos predilectos, Borges escogió sin vacilar el “Wakefield” de Hawthorne, una “breve y ominosa parábola” que prefigura el mundo de Kafka, autor que a su vez “modifica y afina la lectura de ‘Wakefield’”. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: The Birthmark Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2022-05-17 In The Birthmark, Nathaniel Hawthorne masterfully explores the themes of human imperfection, obsession, and the quest for perfection through a narrative that blends gothic elements with psychological depth. The story follows Aylmer, a scientist who becomes fixated on his wife Georgiana's small birthmark, which he perceives as an imperfection threatening her beauty and his idealism. Hawthorne employs rich symbolism and eloquent prose, creating a tension-filled atmosphere that serves as a critique of Enlightenment notions of science and rationality, juxtaposed with the irrationality of human emotion and desire. Hawthorne, an American novelist and short story writer, drew inspiration from his Puritan heritage and the complexities of the human psyche. His own struggles with identity and societal expectations are evident in The Birthmark, which reflects his fascination with moral dilemmas and the darker sides of human nature. This dichotomy between ambition and consequence resonates throughout his work, offering keen insights into the contradictions that define human existence. Readers are encouraged to delve into The Birthmark for its rich exploration of the dangers inherent in the pursuit of unattainable ideals. This timeless tale not only highlights the fragility of human life but also provokes critical reflection on what it means to strive for perfection, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in the intersections of morality, science, and the human condition. |

She had thrust it there after filling it with tobacco, but without stooping to light it at the hearth, where indeed there was no appearance of a fire having been kindled that morning. Forthwith, however, as soon as the order was given, there was an intense red glow out of the bowl of the pipe, and a whiff of smoke came from Mother Rigby's lips. Whence the coal came, and how brought thither by an invisible hand, I have never been able to discover. |

feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Earth's Holocaust (From "Mosses from an Old Manse") Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2020-03-16 In 'Earth's Holocaust,' a thought-provoking tale nestled within Hawthorne's anthology 'Mosses from an Old Manse,' the author explores themes of sin, redemption, and the ethics of progress through a vibrant narrative steeped in allegory. The story unfolds in a richly descriptive style, interweaving elements of Romanticism with moral questioning as it presents a dystopian vision of a world purged of its moral failings. Hawthorne'Äôs astute use of symbolism and poignant character development invites readers to reflect on the human condition and the cost of societal advancement, making it a resonant commentary in the context of the Transcendentalist movement of the 19th century. Nathaniel Hawthorne, a luminary of American literature, was deeply influenced by his Puritan ancestry and the moral complexities of his time. His fascination with the darker aspects of human nature often led him to explore how societal norms shape individual identity. 'Earth's Holocaust' emerges as a critical reflection of his beliefs, borne from a world grappling with rapid modernization and the philosophical dilemmas it engendered, drawing upon his New England upbringing and a keen awareness of the Romantic ethos. This compelling narrative is essential reading for those interested in the intersection of morality and society. Hawthorne's masterful prose not only entertains but also prompts introspection about our collective journey and the sacrifices made for progress. Readers seeking depth in their literary pursuits will find 'Earth's Holocaust' a profound and enriching experience. |
feathertop nathaniel hawthorne: Endicott and the Red Cross Nathaniel Hawthorne, 2018-07-08 Endicott and the Red Cross (+Biography and Bibliography) (Matte Cover Finish): At noon of on autumnal day, more than two centuries ago, the English colors were displayed by the standard-bearer of the Salem trainband, which had mustered for martial exercise under the orders of John Endicott. It was a period when the religious exiles were accustomed often to buckle on their armor, and practise the handling of their weapons of war. Since the first settlement of New England, its prospects had never been so dismal. The dissensions between Charles the First and his subjects were then, and for several years afterwards, confined to the floor of Parliament. The measures of the King and ministry were rendered more tyrannically violent by an opposition, which had not yet acquired sufficient confidence in its own strength to resist royal injustice with the sword. |
