• On a separate sheet of paper take the short story The Minister's Black Veil" by Nathaniel Hawthorne and answer the following questions below:

1. Notice how the veil accrues the meaning upon meaning. The veil is a  wonderful image partly because it comes ready-made with so many rich associations. If the veil is an "emblem" why does hawthorne make it such an obsure one? List the assoications  with the veil that hawthorne suggest. Do you believe that hawthorne wants us to see the veil only as the minister himself speaks of it at the end of the story?

2. Notice how the context changes the significance of the veil. Compare its significance at the funeral and at the wedding.

3. Are the effects of wearing the veil malign? What would Malamud say about this minister? (see idiots first and the magic barrel) ironically though he s cut from his community. he becomes a very effucuent clergy man." what do you make of this?

4.Why doesnt hawthorne have the minister tell us specifically what made him put the veil on his face?
