Nature VS City/Society Addie Johnson Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter depicts the contrast between forest and society. Like other authors in the American Romantic period‚ Hawthorne pays close attention to nature and its importance. The loquacious brook mumbles stories from the past‚ and Pearl plays in the sun.

The two dynamics is made up of nature and nurture. There are no contentions that McLeod’s tries to unravel technical differences between the two dynamics.

Nature is the world around us‚ except for human-made phenomena. As humans are the only animal species that consciously‚ powerfully manipulates the environment‚ we think of ourselves as exalted‚ as special.

An atom is the smallest unit of an element that has all of the properties of that element. There are 92 naturally occurring elements in nature.

An element is a substance that
