Özet:

 

In “Peter Goldthwaite’s Treasure” Hawthorne deals with the American  Dream as an intrinsic part of the American experience. Peter is the lonely  individual who confronts the world dreaming. Hawthorne’s vision of the  American Dream is rooted in his Puritan conception of the man and the  world. His Calvinist vision of mankind gives a dramatic aspect to Peter’s  dreams. Hawthorne thought that man’s sinful condition made impossible an  innocent and simplistic vision of the American Dream. According to Heather  O'Toole, Hawthorne believed “that pure evil is at the core of every  individual, keeping everyone from any genuine good”  O’Toole . Thus  Hawthorne sees the inevitable doubleness of man’s experience and dreams  in the new world at once tragic and hopeful.
