How Nature Can Be Seen Negatively Affecting The Characters...

Don’t Stop BeLEAFing Nature has always been viewed as beautiful and harmless. Flowers, trees, and even other things like the sky always make nature seem like it is the most fertile and gorgeous thing that God created. Nature also has many symbolic and metaphorical references to real life objects, places, and people. However, in the short story â€Å"Young Goodman Brown,† nature can be seen negatively affecting the characters. The story has many scenes of despair and discomfort when the natural world affects the characters well being. Human nature also comes into effect in this story, with actions being decided on the nature of the human. From the Satan ceremony being one of the most descriptive sections in the story, to the forest being yet†¦show more content†¦He can be seen walking back to his house and ignoring her presence. The story states, â€Å"But Goodman Brown looked sternly and sadly into her face, and passed on without a greeting† (Hawthorne n p). The reader can infer that after the ritual, Brown does not know what to think about anything anymore. He is discouraged and essentially in disbelief after what has happened. Brown doesn’t know if it is a dream or not, but he in shock when he wakes up, and doesn’t know what to do with his life. Forests, in many pieces of literature, represent chaos, freedom, magic, and many other metaphorical references. In â€Å"Young Goodman Brown†, the forest is where everything begins. Without the forest, the deciding factors of the story wouldn’t work out. Brown, in the beginning of the story, parted ways with Faith and takes a mysterious road. This is when chaos happens. Brown meets a unknown old man, and after that, everything changes. The forest in this story represents chaos and mischief. It can also be said that the forest has a bit of magic, too. One instance of magic is when the old man touches the tree. Hawthorne explains: As they went, he plucked a branch of maple to serve for a walking stick, and began to strip it of the twigs and little boughs which were wet with evening dew. The moment his fingers touched them they became strangely withered and dried up as with a week’s sunshine.

The possibility that a greater emphasis on cognitive factors might enhance a behavioral account of OCD can be traced back to Carr (1974), McFall and Wollersheim (1979), Rachman and Hodgson (1980), and Salkovskis (1985).
