Answer:

Both stories talk about the idea of freedom from the limited rules of society and tradition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both stories have the main character how feels the imperative necessity of going away from the place where they are and have a very different life, but both are stopped for morality, in The Journey, she doesn't leave her husband because it is not appropriated according to society and the role a woman should have as a wife. In The Young Goodman Brown, he faces a similar feeling but his deterrent is a religion he is incapable of doing anything that is going to be considered bad by his church and God
