In this story The Scarlet Letter, Hester Prynne to rebel from within the walls of her enemies’ territory. The rebellion is mainly an inner transformation. As she makes her rounds on the fringes of Boston. “In the cottage there were articles of comfort and luxury, such as Hester never cared to use, but which only wealth could have purchased, and affection have imagined for her. There were trifles, too, little ornaments, beautiful tokens of a continual remembrance that must have been wrought by delicate fingers, at the impulse of a fond heart.” (256) “Hester was seen embroidering a baby-garment, with such a lavish richness of golden fancy as would have raised a public tumult, had any infant, thus apparelled, been shown to our sobre-hued community.(256) She was outwardly humble and self – effacing, appropriately submissive. She survives by concealing her scarlet" A ". If there's deception her it is done out of love for others. “Hester Prynne was now fully sensible of the deep injury for which she was responsible to this unhappy man, in permitting him to lie for so many years, or, indeed, for a single moment, at the mercy of one, whose purposes could not be other than malevolent.” (23) The Pragmatic part of Hester knowing that if she was to permitted to live near her lover and raising their child , She must be seen as what the Puritans expect to see.

2. Identify instances of rebelliousness: Look for instances where Hester exhibits rebellious behavior or deviates from societal norms. These actions could include openly mocking authority figures, refusing to conform to societal expectations, or openly expressing her opinions against the norms.
3. Analyze the frequency and intensity: Assess how often Hester engages in rebellious acts. Does she consistently push against societal norms or is her rebellious behavior sporadic? Also, examine the degree of her rebelliousness. Does she actively challenge authority or does she express her dissent in more subtle ways?
4. Consider character development: Examine whether Hester's rebelliousness changes or evolves over time. Do her actions become more or less rebellious as the story progresses? Consider any factors or events that may have influenced her behavior.
