Hawthorne’s tone SCARLET LETTER A) Hawthorne’s viewpoint of Pearl seems to be exceptionally adoring as he claims that her "beauty shined through the gorgeous robes" (Ch. 6) and there was a "circle of radiance" (Ch. 6) that shone about her.

B) Hawthorne’s outlook

The use of diaries and letters are not unproblematic. Diaries‚ whilst often thought an ‘accurate’ or truthful account written solely for the purpose of documenting personal ideas‚ are often unintentionally written with a specific reader in mind‚ or written under the assumption that one day the diaries’ entries will be read.
