Nathaniel Hawthorne
**Nathaniel Hawthorne** (1804–1864) est l’un des plus grands écrivains américains du XIXe siècle. Né à Salem, dans le Massachusetts, il est marqué par l’héritage puritain de sa famille, notamment par l’implication de ses ancêtres dans les procès des sorcières de Salem. Son œuvre, souvent teintée de symbolisme et de réflexion morale, explore les tensions entre la culpabilité, la rédemption et la quête de sens. Auteur de chefs-d’œuvre comme *La Lettre écarlate* et *La Maison aux sept pignons*, Hawthorne a profondément influencé la littérature américaine par sa prose riche et son analyse psychologique des personnages.
