YOUNG GOODMAN BROWN

PLOT
1) Before going to the Forest
The story starts out at sunset in Salem with Young Goodman Brown saying goodbye to his wife Faith. His wife is wearing a pink ribbon (important detail) and she doesn’t want him to go. He tells her he has to go and will be back tomorrow. He feels bad because he thinks she is so innocent طاهرة and he is off to do bad things.
He goes into the forest and meets this guy. In olden times, the forest was considered a place of evil so right off the bat you know he is up to no good. The guy has been waiting for Brown and tells him he is late. Goodman Brown says, "Faith kept me back a while". The guy kind of looks like Goodman Brown just older and he has a staff. He tells him they have to start a journey. Brown says he has come too far the forest and he is going home. He says his father and grandfather never came into the woods غابات like he has to meet this guy. The man says he knew Goodman Brown’s father and grandfather and they have walked this path many times. Brown says he finds that hard to believe because the members of his family are good Christians. The man says he is on friendly terms with all kinds of good Christians all over New England, even the governor. Then Goodman Brown says he doesn’t know the governor but he would never be able to look the minister in his eyes if kept going on this path. The man laughs at him. Goodman Brown is running out of excuses so he says he can’t go on because of his wife…his Faith.
2) Beginning of Meeting all the spiritual Leaders
• The devil then points down the path to an old lady who is hobbling along. The old lady is Goody Cloyse. Goodman Brown doesn’t want her to see him so he hides in the trees. The man walks up to Goody Cloyse and she greets him as "The Devil!" Goody Cloyse recognizes the devil in the form of Goodman Brown’s grandfather who was a friend of hers. They talk and it’s obvious she is in with the devil. She is going to a communion in the forest where they are initiating a young man…could this be Goodman Brown…I think so. The devil offers her his staff and throws it down on the ground and it turns into snake. (In ancient Egypt, the sorcerers had staffs that turned into snakes. Hawthorne makes note of this here. Moses had a staff too it turned into a snake and ate all the other snakes. Say this to look smart) Then the snake and Goody Cloyse disappear.
• Goodman Brown doesn’t want to go any further so the man leaves him. Brown is sitting there when two men came riding through the forest on horses. Brown hides in the trees again. The minister and Deacon Gookin are the two men riding up. They are talking about the evil communion and how everyone from all over is going to be there because a young woman will be taking the communion….hmmm, who could that be? Well, Goodman Brown is pretty upset by all this. All the spiritual leaders in his town are in with the devil.
• Then he calls out that with his Faith, he will stand firm against the devil. Then he hears all these voices that sound like the people in his town and the voice of a young woman and then a scream. Then a pink ribbon (remember the pink ribbon?) comes fluttering down in front of Goodman Brown. He is then really upset and cries out, "My Faith is gone!". So, he gets all crazy and starts running down the path.
3) The End
He comes into this clearing where there is a big fire and a bunch of people singing and such. All the people were the people from his town and Indians. Then, this guy at an altar (the devil) says "Bring Forth the converts!". So Goodman Brown goes forward. The head guy looks like his dead father and in front of the altar is a woman. So, Goodman Brown is led to the altar and is standing there with this woman. The devil gives a speech about how everyone they know is here and that basically everyone is evil no matter who they are. Evil is the nature of mankind. He tells Goodman Brown to look at the woman and they look at each other. The woman is Faith. Well, they are about to both be baptized by blood or fire when Goodman Brown yells to his wife to resist the devil. Right when he yells this, everything disappears and he is all alone.
The next day, Goodman Brown returns home to Salem from the forest. He sees the minister, Goody Cloyse, and the Deacon and he can’t look at them. They look normal but he sees them as evil now. Then he sees his wife who is excited to see him but he walks away from her. Then basically Goodman Brown lives a miserable life because he doesn’t trust anyone and thinks they are all evil.

Type of work
In many ways, much of this tale is allegorical in nature, partly because of the mutability of all of the symbols. If this were an allegory it could be summarized by stating that this is one man’s realization that he is surrounded by opposing forces without ever knowing which of them are good or which are evil. Faith (in both senses of the word) is the light in the story, the only way one can be saved, yet by walking into the forest (which is a symbol for that which is dark and mysterious) with a man who literally clings to the serpent (an allegorical image for the Devil or evil incarnate) Goodman is leaving behind his Faith and asking for the truth about who (or what) is good or evil


Primordial Symbols
While Faith represents the known establishments surrounding Brown, the forest seems to means lot more than just land with lots of trees. The forest, described as "an unseen multitude" filled with "innumerable trunks and thick boughs overhead," represents the ever complicated unknowns of human nature and the subconscious. The forest is personified in Brown's mind, "peopled with frightful sounds; the creaking of trees, the howling of wild beasts...the echoes of the forest laughing like demons around him" . These deions foreshadow Brown's perception of human nature as evil and extend this belief not only to humans but to all living things., the figure leaves these parting words, "Welcome again, my children, to the communion of your race!" Brown is joining the anti-establishment version of the typical church communion in the belief that the world is full of evil deceitful people. The term "race" is not exclusive of any humans, re-emphazing that evil is EVERYWHERE, according to Brown's new perspective
dark forests (in "Young Goodman Brown") as danger, obscurity, confusion, and the unknown or with evil, sin, and death. a river (the passage of time), overcast sky (gloom, depression, despair), lamb (innocence, vulnerability), violent storm (wrath, inconsolable grief), flowers (delicacy, perishability, beauty), mountain (obstacle, challenge), eagle (majesty, freedom) the color white (purity, innocence), the color red (anger, passion, war, blood), the color green (new life, hope), water (birth or rebirth), autumn (old age), winter (death).
The symbols of sunset and night, which reflect the two opposing forces of good and evil in the . This is especially apparent when we consider that the light of late day allows him to see Faith with love whereas when he sees her in darkness;It is also worth mentioning that pink ribbon is symbolic of the purity of faith.
Themes

Theme 1How the Puritans’ strict moral code and overemphasis on the sinfulness of humankind foster undue suspicion and distrust. Goodman Brown’s experience in the forest–whether dream or reality–causes him to lose his faith in others and die an unhappy man. Note the last words of the story: “They carved no hopeful verse upon his tombstone; for his dying hour was gloom.”

Theme 2 The realization that evil can infect people who seem upright. Goodman Brown discovers that even highly respected people in Salem fall victim to the forces of darkness. Today–when corporate executives cheat stockholders, politicians lie to win elections, and members of the clergy defraud their congregations–this theme still resonates.

Theme 3 • One man’s virtue is another man’s sin, and vice versa. “There is no good on earth,” Goodman Brown observes, “and sin is but a name.” In other words, whether an action is good or evil appears to depend on who is viewing the action. The zealotry of a Puritan punishing a wrongdoer–like Goodman Brown’s grandfather lashing “a Quaker woman so smartly through the streets”–might be praised as a just act by another Puritan but condemned as an inhumane act by non-Puritans. These opposing views of the same action seem to confuse Brown; he is like a modern man who is told that “everything goes” or that one moral position is as valid as another, opposing one. There are, of course, absolute moral values which should prevail for everyone, regardless of their religion or lack of it. For example, murder is always wrong; child abuse is always wrong. However, the devil figure succeeds in confounding Brown on what is truly right and what is truly wrong.

Points
- Hawthorne uses characters who are leaders of their community and symbolistic settings to show that despite how prominent a person is he or she is capable of evil under the right conditions

- Through the use of community leaders, Hawthorne shows that there is
evil in everyone

- Everybody commits sins, but not everyone accepts sins.

- Loss of Innocence is a major theme of the story

- The main point about this story is was it real or a dream? Hawthorne asks that question himself at the end. Did Goodman Brown fall asleep in the forest and dream the whole thing or did he really meet the devil?

- Faith represents more than just his wife. It can be religious faith or faith in mankind.

- Remember, Hawthorne lived in Salem where they had the witch trials. The Puritans put a lot of innocent people to death in the name or religion. This story says a lot about how people may appear to be very religious but still are evil.

- Why did the devil appear to Goodman Brown to resemble his father? Maybe to convince him?

Dream vs Reality
Hawthorne leaves open to question whether Goodman Brown’s experience is real or imagined, as in a dream. Keep in mind that normal, mentally stable people–like you or those around you–sometimes accept delusions, fantasies, or fabrications as real events. Keep in mind, too, that they sometimes see evil in a person who has done no evil.
