Negative. She read about a thing in a book on Truth. Had she read the book, she would (arguably) understand that the protagonist remained silent. Also the protagonist protected someone in a position of authority. And had shame. And regret. And … sigh. I’m wistful for puritans now.
I'm gonna guess she didn't or she'd better understand the implications of it. She just has a basic knowledge that the Scarlet A was a stigma put on women.
