Psychoanalysis of Hester:A Lacanian View of Poststructuralist

Based on the Lacanian view of poststructuralism, the paper attempts to give psychoanalysis of Hester, the heroine in Nathaniel Hawthorne's well-known novel The Scarlet Letter, using the imaginary order and symbolic order to interpret the process of Hester's psychological development. Hester moves from her psychic involvement in the imaginary into the culturally defined freedom of the symbolic. At first she is contented of her self -identification in the imaginary. Finally she accepts the Law, its symbols of authority, and through them the rule of the register of the symbolic. From a unique view this paper presents the process of Hester's psychological development.
