This paper will analyze and interpret the clothing of typical female characters in The Scarlet Letter, Daisy Miller and Dry September from the perspective of symbolism, so as to illustrate how the symbolism of clothing, as a kind of symbols, shapes the image of the main characters.展开更多

Through the application of reader theory and a close reading of the text, this article analyzes Daisy's strong personality and her misfortunes during her trip to Europe, and reveals how the novella highlights the conflict between American frankness and innocence and European sophistication. Besides, this article also elaborates on James' unique artistic skills—central consciousness and psychological analysis through his choice of narrative point of view, which contribute to the theme and the artistic charm of DaisyMiller.展开更多
