In Kayla Johnson's blog addressing the details in Chapter 1, "The Prison Door," that could symbolize to help characterize the people of town, she states, " They are all wearing gloomy-colored attire, but some of the women are weraing [SIC] hoods and the men are wearing gray hats that are positioned high above their heads". This proves true since the attire describes the people of the town to be very bland and ordinary. Hester Prynne is automatically outcast from her fellow townsfolk due to her rare beauty and sins, making her unordinary.
In Carlos Rodriguez's about how the symbolism of "The Prison Door" can help characterize the people of the town, he states, "The details in chapter 1, "The Prison Door," symbolizes many ideas that help characterize the people of the town. Several of these ideas include that the people of the town were indistinct and vague". This proves true when one considers the people of the town to seem very dull looking based on Hawthorne's description of them. He describes them as “in sad-colored garments and gray, steeple crowned hats” (33). This shows how plain the people looked of the town back then, and by the looks of them one could see they go through many hardships.
In Colleen's blog addressing the details in Chapter 1, "The Prison Door," that can symbolize how to help characterize the people of the town, she states, "Hawthorne lets the reader know how dreary, serious, formal, and non-animated the people as a whole are, due to the “gray” clothing they wore." This proves true when one considers the similarity in the attire of the townspeople. Hester Prynne's unordinary beauty causes her to become isolated from the rest of the crowd.
