In this class, students will analyze and write about Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles. They will then write a four to ten-page essay about their analysis. The Scarlet Letter is set in Puritan New England. Hester Prynne is branded by her community as adulterous because of a pregnancy outside of marriage and is sentenced to wear a scarlet A to show her wrongdoing. Tess is a poor, nineteenth-century teenager who becomes pregnant by a wealthier man. This pregnancy affects her the rest of her life.

Parents should decide if this content is appropriate for their learner.
