Three major conventional figures dominated Hawthorne’s romances: the noble Founding Father, the “narrow Puritan,” and the rebellious daughter. Daniel Bell examines the ways in which Hawthorne used these and other conventional characters to formulate his own sense of New England history.

Originally published in 1971.
