Summary | "Nathaniel Hawthorne" by George Edward Woodberry is a biographical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the life and literary contributions of Nathaniel Hawthorne, focusing on his ancestry, early life, and the formative years that shaped him into one of American literature's pivotal figures. The opening of the biography outlines the lineage of Hawthorne's family, tracing back to England and emphasizing key ancestors who played significant roles in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. It illustrates the somber environment in which Nathaniel was raised, including the impact of his father's early death and his mother's long-standing grief, which colored his childhood and influenced his future writing. As Hawthorne grows up, the narrative captures his early literary inclinations, his relationship with books, and the solitude he often embraced, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of his complex character and creative endeavors in the subsequent chapters.
