Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" And James Joyce's "Araby" -- Similar Trials And Conclusions About The Nature Of Good/Evil
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. The truth that lies within a literary work of art is that which addresses the inherently complicated and diverse attitudes as they exist within each individual. Both Young Goodman Brown and Araby are about human nature -- the very truth of human nature -- which is why they are often painful to accept. Indeed, Hawthorne and Joyce's work represent all that is the human experience, a pertinent reason why these two stories appeal so greatly to a limitless audience. A relevant phrase in literary circles that relates to the overall concept of good and evil in these tales is that of the human condition, which refers -- quite logically -- to the definition of being human. Analyzing Young Goodman Brown and Araby, one finds the human condition is a regular consideration, in that humanity is constantly in question: Is Man strong or weak, good or evil, redeemed or condemned, honorable or chicken-hearted? The climate of the human condition is what compels the authors to delve deeply into the conscience of humanity through their struggling protagonists. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
