This three-page undergraduate paper focuses on the theme of truth and faith in Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story titled "Young Goodman Brown". The story, with the help of symbolism and imagery, indirectly criticizes the Puritan society and its moral façade, which gave birth to many social and religious ills as people were forced to maintain a pious image for fear that they would otherwise be labeled 'evil' and 'immoral'. 3 pgs. No bibliography.
