Resumen
The origins of North American literature will always be attached to the religious principles brought about in the colonies of New England by the first European Puritan settlers disembarked at the coasts of Plymouth. Nathaniel Hawthorne was one of the dark romantics of the prolific nineteenth century in the United States who emerged from that Puritan ancestry and whose forefathers, William and John Hathorne, were deeply involved not only in the history of his native Salem and in its witchcraft episode, but also in the whole history of the Massachusetts Bay Colony since the seventeenth century. These familiar and historical facts were very influential in his life and in his literary career. In this paper, I will analyze the impact that all this caused on Hawthorne’s literary production.
