Rappaccini's Daughter
In the story Rappaccini's Daughter, by Nathaniel Hawthorne, the daughter Beatrice had a connection with the garden. She was the daughter of a scientist Signor Giacomo Rappaccini. She is a beautiful, kind, and innocent young woman. She has a connection with the garden because her father would not let her go outside of the garden. She has been isolated from society because she has been infected with a poison. Her father is thinking about the poisons and his experiment upon her. He is afraid that if his daughter goes outside the garden that she will poison everyone because of the experiment he is trying to do
It is also poisonous; it symbolizes Beatrice's spiritual perfection. Beatrice also stained Giovanni's wrist like a stamp, when she touched him. The water in the fountain symbolizes the spirit. The purple shrub is the action marker of the story. It is like the fountain mixed with matter and spirit. In the Bible, Jesus told Adam and Eve not to eat the apple from the garden, but they did anyway. When the insects buzz around her, they fall dead to the ground. It is endless and unchanged and combines the material and the spiritual. Beatrice symbolizes Eve in the Bible and Giovanni symbolizes Adam from the Bible. When she holds the flowers, they drop in her hands. She takes the branches in her arms and tells the plant "give me thy breath, my sister, for I am faint with common air " (Bernardo 1). She then later dies after taking an antidote created by Signor Pietro Baglioni. Beatrice falls in love with Giovanni Guasconti, she then poisons him, and he is infected and can be fatal to the outside world.
