What is a verbal irony in the scarlet letter?

An example of irony in the Scarlett Letter was the luxurious house of the mayor. The house went against all Puritan beliefs in not getting caught into worldly things and material goods. Another example is the ending of the book, although Dimmesdale may have confessed his sin to the townspeople, the town still tried to find ways to excuse his behavior.

They didn't treat his crime as they did with hester's case.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
