    Hawthorne describes Hester as a contradictory unity with a double character. On the one hand, Hester defies the narrow 

    and hypocritical religious creed with her brave and fearless defiance, challenging the regime and husband's right. For 

    her love with the priest Dimmesdale, Hester defends and bravely fights. This brave woman, despite the scarlet letter, 

    shows her calmness and pride in her dress and demeanor. Hester is humiliated but lives with strength and dignity, as

     if she is not a sinner who deserves to be punished. In the heartfelt speech delivered by Dimmesdale on his deathbed, 

    Hester bravely came out and stood by her lover's side without fearing the strange looks of the crowd. The beauty of

     women, their fidelity to love, their love for life, their rebellion against religion, their relentless pursuit of happiness, 

    their calmness, optimism and self-respect in the face of adversity, all reflect the perfection of Hester's humanity. 

    Hester's rebellion actually reflects Hawthorne's rebellious attitude toward Puritanism. On the other hand, Hester's 

    rebellion against religion is not complete, as she cannot be completely freed from the bonds of religious thought,

     and it is clear that there is a residual compromise in her. This compromise essentially reflects Hawthorne's compromise 

    and doubt of religion to some extent. Hester has the desire and courage to pursue a good love and happy life, but she

     cannot completely escape from the bondage and confinement of religious thought.
