Book excerpt: Nathaniel Hawthorne's Scarlet Letter presents a successful instance of the disciplinary normalization technique that Michel Foucault made problematic. Critics have assumed the repressive power of the scarlet letter and its disciplines and have vilified it without investigating its centrality to Hester's individual self. Hester herself, however, did not change the literary meaning of the letter; rather, but the crowd willfully changed its interpretation of it. Foucault focuses on the people who are disciplined rather than the disciplines themselves and argues that the disciplined people could institute a counter-discourse. On the other hand, The Scarlet Letter seemingly views disciplinary power, surveillance techniques, and discursive violence as problems. Those three things, however, helped the crowd readapt Hester to their society. Hawthorne and Foucault questioned the four main elements of humanity: first, Emersonian individualism, or the essential self; second, a disciplinary social network; third, a discursive violence; and, forth, resistance. Their enlightening, sensible thoughts are, however, somewhat confusing. Hawthorne employs many allegories, and Foucault did not suggest any practical way to accomplish a healthy agency or resistance. This thesis will address the commonalities and connections between Hawthorne's Scarlet Letter and Foucault's Discipline and Punish. Keywords: agency, branding, crowd, discipline, label, Michel Foucault, Nathaniel Hawthorne, normalization, power, punishment, Puritan, Ralph Waldo Emerson, resistance, surveillance
