이 이야기에서 호손은 궁극적으로 폐기된 이야기의 단편을 제시하여 독자들에게 작가의 창작 과정과 마음을 엿볼 수 있게 해준다. 이 구절은 등장인물, 배경, 사건을 흥미진진하게 엿볼 수 있지만 전체 이야기는 아직 불완전하고 해결되지 않은 상태로 남아 있다.
Hawthorne은 "포기한 작품의 구절"을 통해 예술, 상상력, 창의적인 비전을 실현하기 위한 투쟁이라는 주제를 탐구하고 있다. 이 이야기는 작가와 예술가가 자신의 기술의 복잡성과 씨름하면서 직면하는 어려움과 불확실성을 보여준다.
완전한 서사보다는 미완성된 단편을 제시함으로써 Hawthorne은 독자들에게 스토리텔링의 본질과 가장 불완전한 예술 작품에서도 의미와 중요성이 나타날 수 있는 방식에 대해 숙고하도록 유도한다.

<Classics to read in English_ Passages from a Relinquished Work by Hawthorne >
"Passages from a Relinquished Work" is a short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne, included in his collection "Mosses from an Old Manse", published in 1846.
In this story, Hawthorne presents fragments of a story that was ultimately discarded, giving readers a glimpse into the author's creative process and mind. This passage provides an exciting glimpse into the characters, setting, and events, but the overall story remains incomplete and unresolved.
Hawthorne explores themes of art, imagination, and the struggle to realize a creative vision through "Passages of Abandoned Works." This story illustrates the difficulties and uncertainties that writers and artists face as they grapple with the complexities of their craft.
By presenting incomplete fragments rather than complete narratives, Hawthorne invites readers to consider the nature of storytelling and the ways in which meaning and significance can emerge from even the most imperfect works of art.

Summary
From infancy I was under the guardianship of a village parson, who made me the subject of daily prayer and the sufferer of innumerable stripes, using no distinction, as to these marks of paternal love, between myself and his own three boys. The result, it must be owned, has been very different in their cases and mine, they being all respectable men and well settled in life; the eldest as the successor to his father’s pulpit, the second as a physician, and the third as a partner in a wholesale shoe-store; while I, with better prospects than either of them, have run the course which this volume will describe.
