b human madness
c death and mortality
d nature's power

The correct answer is A. The supernatural

Explanation:

Gothic writing is a type of literary genre that mixes fiction with elements such as death, horror, and supernatural events and creatures. This type of writing can be identified for the dark and unusual settings in which the story takes place; the evil or supernatural characters and the existence of events that cannot be explained. In the case of the excerpt presented from "The Scarlet letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne" the narrator describes the way in which the symbol of the Scarlet letter Hester Prynne should use "was not mere Scarlet cloth tinged in an earthly dye pot, but was red hot with infernal fire" which suggest the symbol was not only a Scarlett letter but a representation of the hell or the devil also the narrator emphasizes  the symbol "could be seen glowing all alight whenever Hester Prynne walked aboard in the night time" which suggest the symbol has supernatural features. Thus, the feature of Gothic writing this excerpt illustrates is the supernatural as the symbol glows in a supernatural way and is linked to the devil and the hell, which is also a common feature in gothic literature.
