PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

제2판 서문.

Much to the author's surprise, and (if he may say so without additional offence) considerably to his amusement, he finds that his sketch of official life, introductory to THE SCARLET LETTER, has created an unprecedented excitement in the respectable community immediately around him.

저자 자신도 크게 놀랐으며, (이렇게 말해도 추가적인 불쾌감을 주지 않는다면) 상당히 재미있게도, 그는 《주홍 글자》의 서두에 실린 관직 생활에 관한 자신의 소묘가 바로 주변의 점잖은 사회에서 전례 없는 흥분을 불러일으켰다는 사실을 알게 되었다.

It could hardly have been more violent, indeed, had he burned down the Custom-House, and quenched its last smoking ember in the blood of a certain venerable personage, against whom he is supposed to cherish a peculiar malevolence.

실로, 그가 세관을 불태우고, 그 마지막 타오르는 잿불을 어떤 존경받는 인물의 피로 껐다 하더라도, 이보다 더 격렬한 반응은 없었을 것이다. 그 인물은 저자가 특별한 악의를 품고 있다고 여겨지는 대상이다.

As the public disapprobation would weigh very heavily on him, were he conscious of deserving it, the author begs leave to say, that he has carefully read over the introductory pages, with a purpose to alter or expunge whatever might be found amiss, and to make the best reparation in his power for the atrocities of which he has been adjudged guilty.

만약 저자가 대중의 비난을 받아 마땅하다고 스스로 느꼈다면 그 비난은 그에게 매우 무겁게 짓눌렸을 것이기에, 저자는 감히 말하건대, 잘못된 것으로 여겨질 수 있는 부분을 고치거나 삭제할 목적으로 서두 부분을 주의 깊게 다시 읽었으며, 자신이 유죄로 판정받은 만행에 대해 자신이 할 수 있는 최선의 배상을 하고자 했다고 밝힌다.

But it appears to him, that the only remarkable features of the sketch are its frank and genuine good-humor, and the general accuracy with which he has conveyed his sincere impressions of the characters therein described.

그러나 그가 보기에, 그 소묘에서 주목할 만한 특징은 오직 그 솔직하고 진실한 유머 감각과, 그 안에서 묘사된 인물들에 대한 자신의 진솔한 인상을 전달한 전반적인 정확성뿐이다.

As to enmity, or ill-feeling of any kind, personal or political, he utterly disclaims such motives.

적개심이나 개인적 혹은 정치적인 어떠한 종류의 악감정에 관해서는, 그는 그러한 동기를 전적으로 부인한다.
