There are many different views among scholars about the motif of Hawthome’s "Red Cross".In my opinion,the most meaningful view is from an American critic.He said that "Red Cross" is a novel describing the divergence between natural man and social man.As my part,this divergence can be understood on two levels.The first is the conflict between thongs of people represent the benefits of natural man and the other throngs of people represent the social man’s benefits;the second is the conflict of natural character and social character in everybody’s soul.The author tried to make those two conflicts to a certain agreement,and ended with a concordant state.Then who win? Who fail?
