  • Do you think the journey is allegory for the knowledge of good and evil as in the Genesis creation? The misery of obtaining the knowledge the expulsion from paradise/ignorance as ignorance is bliss?

  • @Mahoivlich This is a good interpretation of the story. This view accounts for what happens and the gloomy ending. You can make a good case for it.

  • Again, thank you so much!

  • I read this story in 8th grade it was really good

  • Thank you! This is going to help me so much in my college Literature class. :)

  • You Rock Man, Thanks for the explanation, this will help alot with my project.

  • @sophiecrete It is described as a 'Brief interpretation'. And dictation? It's a video. It's never going to be overly interactive is it?

  • what was ment when it said "If I hide my face for sorrow, there is cause enough," he merely replied; "and if I cover it for secret sin, what mortal might not do the same?"

  • Thank you so much for clearing things up. I just read it and was a little confused about everything but you really made the dots connect. We have a quiz on this reading tommorow and I think you really helped me out alot.

  • Thank you for a very clear and concise analysis of one of Nathaniel Hawthorne's works.
