Nathaniel Hawthorne

Nathaniel Hawthorne

Nathaniel Hawthorne he was born july,1804 in Salem Massachusetts into the sixth generation of his Salem family. Being the son Nathaniel was idolize by his mother and tow sisters. He attended Bowdoin college from 1821 - 1825. His refusal to participate in public speaking prevented his achievements of an outstanding academic record but he was good standing. The years 1825 - 1837 Nathaniel lived with is mother’s Salem household. During those years he spent his time in a haunted room , during the “ solitary years ” he learned how to write tales and unique sketches . The book “ the scarlet letter” was writing by him in October 23, 1999.
　
The reason why I think Nathaniel Hawthorne would be included in speak is because growing up was hard for him. He lost his father when he was four years old. Also when growing up He profoundly affected by the puritans persecution of innocent people during the new England witch hunt , because his ancestor john Hawthorne was the chief magistrate in the trials that led to death of 20 people. So people looked at him differently do to that. The reason why I think he would fit good in the book is because him and Melinda were being pointed on for acting different and were being called names, and it took them a while to speak up for themselves and Nathaniel and Melinda were both talented in there own ways. In the end they both end up having a good life , Melinda ends up having good friends old ones and new ones, and so did Nathaniel he end up meeting some really good friends in college.
　
In conclusion Nathaniel Hawthorne had 3 kids and had been married To Sophia Peabody. Well I hope u enjoyed the little short summary of Nathaniel Hawthorne, and the comparison between him and Melinda from speak.
