Zusammenfassung:"This Norton Critical Edition of The House of the Seven Gables provides readers with a definitive version of Hawthorne's 1851 novel, and a detailed resource for understanding the novel's resonance with Antebellum America. The story is about the generations of the Pyncheon family that have lived in the House of the Seven Gables, their ancestry, and their connection to the home. "Contexts" provides readers with historical background about early to mid-19th century American society and domesticity, allowing them to consider cultural beliefs that may have been important to Hawthorne's readers and to the period in which he was writing. "Criticism" includes contemporary, classic, and modern criticism of the novel, allowing readers to better understand how the novel was received in its time, as well as how its themes and characters are understood today. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included"--
