摘　　要：1850年《红字》出版前霍桑以短篇小说和儿童文学创作为主,尽管声望有所上升,却一直食不果腹。为了改变生活窘境,寻求最大的经济效益,霍桑在极其痛苦之中选择了艺术与文学市场的中间路线,市场这只无形之手驱使霍桑的写作在明显的暴露和有意的隐藏之间摇摆,从而构建起他的罗曼司体裁。因此可以说,罗曼司是霍桑应对当时的通俗文学市场迎合大众审美的期待视野、追逐最大可能的经济收益又不断送自己长期以来的艺术追求的做法,是他为平衡艺术与养家糊口之间的矛盾所采取的文学市场策略。Before the publication of The Scarlet Letter in 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne had been mainly working on short stories andwritings for children. Although his reputation as a writer rose gradually, he and his family were always in poor economic condition. In order to get better benefits to improve his life, He painfully chose the neutral territory between art and market. It was market that drove Hawthorne＇s writing to vibrate between obvious revelation and intentional disguise so that he could establish his romance. That is to say, romance is a kind of strategy for literary marketplace for Hawthorne to deal with the popular market in his time, to cater to audience＇s reading expectation, to get the best economic benefits but not to destroy his own art pursuit, and to balance contradiction between art and family support.
