Young Goodman Brown

1. The allegory is the journey through life that all people face, and having to state and fallow hat you believe.
2. Pink ribbon, it could symbolize innocents and how he lost his innocents. Devil, the devil represent evil and when he has his staff is symbolizes the devil and also they refer it to a big black snake and a snake symbolizes evil. Faith is another symbol, he has faith until he leaves and then he has lost faith.
3.I think the images in the forest where an illusion and it happened to get Goodman Brown to go on the side of evil.
4. Goodman Brown, Faith, devil, Goody Cloyse, minister, Descon Gookin
5. King Phillips war is the allusion to the King Phillips war. Egyptian magi turned the staff into a snake and is an allusion to the bible.
6. The story was hard to understand because of all the allusions, but I liked the allusion of Faith and him leaving his wife and losing her was him losing his Faith, I thought that was cleaver. I also liked how the traveler was the devil and the cane was a snake. In the end when they had you thinking about if the illusions in the forest were real or not made the story better and gave you something to think about.
7. I think he thought through each character well with the events that happened in the forest and his wife and made the reader really think.
8. I think the theme is evil and how he came across many obstacles dealing with evil and trying to get him to become evil.
