Focusing on Puritan ideology, this seminar paper analyzes Nathaniel Hawthorne's short stories "Young Goodman Brown" and "The Minister's Black Veil." It argues that both narratives reveal profound insights into the Puritan mindset and highlight the consequences of such thinking. The paper interprets these stories as narratives of moral decline and sin, framing them within the context of American Puritan jeremiads, thus exploring the complexities of faith and morality in Hawthorne's work.
