Young Goodman Brown2

Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" is set of the mid 1800's. Hawthorne uses extensive symbolism. This story took us on road of two parallel meanings of Goodman's life and faith. With the many symbols we understand the loss of Goodman's faith.

Goodman Brown was a young Puritan. Goodman has been called on an errand and his new wife, Faith, asks him not to go. They are newly married and she doesn't want him to leave. Goodman says that he has to go and looks back as she waves goodbye. Faith is the symbol for what he left behind and needed to hang on to. Faith has had dreams of his errand, but Goodman puts them aside and goes forward with his plans. When he returns he plans to follow her to heaven. Faith represents faith in God and good. She does not respond to Satan's call. Although she has been tempted many times she stood true to her faith.

Goodman takes a journey through the forest, which is dark and has places you can see it, but is a dark, grim, eerie place. A forest can make you feel afraid of what you may find at every turn. Hawthorne's use of names is symbolic as well. Goodman represents a good man, where Goody Cloyse's represents a spiritual woman.


He walks into the witch's camp and Goodman recognizes the people from his community and church. He sees these people as deceptive, wrong doers. He is standing at the alter with Faith and just before Satan anoints them, he shouts to Faith to look up to heaven, but he doesn't know if she did, leaving doubt in his heart forever.

Goodman hears Faith crying and calls out to her. There is no reply to his calls, but out of the corner of his eye he spots a little pink ribbon, the one from his precious wife's hair. Then a heavy thought that he had lost his Faith forever. The ribbon symbolized that his faith had been taken he had nothing else to live for.

He losses faith in everyone and losses respect and love for all of them including his new wife. He becomes a dark soul throughout his travel. Goodman begins to loose his faith in mankind. This is a spiritual battler within him. After this trip he's never the same. He faces the fact of who he really is which is a deceiver himself. The theme of this story is that Goodman believes that everyone, even if they act righteous, has walked along a path with Satan. He trusts no one and with that he lives a gloomy life, distance from his wife and everyone.
