第一篇:婚姻经营的艺术:《飘》中艾伦和斯嘉丽的性格与婚姻
婚姻经营的艺术——
《飘》中艾伦和斯嘉丽的性格与婚姻
我一直觉得,婚姻中的相处是一门伟大的艺术,要不怎么会有经营婚姻这个说法呢?持有某一种毒鸡汤观点的人大多是以女性为视角,仿佛婚姻不好大多或全部是女性的责任似的。幸福的婚姻都是相似的,男的有钱、顾家、爱妻子,妻子负责让别人认为贤惠温柔就行了;不幸的婚姻各有各的不幸,却大多数归结于女性不会经营。说到底这终归是一个男权主义的社会。但是不可否认的是,能够经营好婚姻的人,不管是男性还是女性,都是双商高的人,不仅聪明而且聪慧。
《飘》这本书呢,是为数不多的女作家的作品,反映了大多数女性对待爱情、对待婚姻的态度,也许这也是女性读起来特别容易带入的原因吧。《飘》是一个大部头的著作,我只看了一遍,所以有些地方记忆会有一些差错,如有差错敬请指出。
整本书描写了美国南北战争时期波澜壮阔的场景,刻画了许多个性非常鲜明的人物。在1200多页的故事里,艾伦出场的次数并不多,大多数是作为介绍斯嘉丽的家庭背景时出现的,(仅有一次我觉得比较独立的场景,是她临死前在睡梦中叫了死去情人的名字)。但是她的性格与对待婚姻的态度却给我留下了深刻的印象。因此,接下来的内容里,我重点分析艾伦与斯嘉丽的性格以及性格对他们婚姻的影响。
简单的人物介绍
艾伦:斯嘉丽的母亲,贵族小姐,少女时期的情人是她的表哥;情人死后,伤心欲绝的远嫁他乡,嫁给了比自己大12岁的杰拉尔德(斯嘉丽的父亲,富有的农场主);结婚后操劳一生,为杰拉尔德生育了三个女儿。
斯嘉丽:本书女主角,富有农场主的女儿;少女时期的恋人是艾希礼;一共结了三次婚,生了三个孩子,与白瑞德的纠缠在书中贯穿始终。
艾伦:百炼钢可化绕指柔
艾伦是美国旧社会南方妇女的缩影,也许是大多数男性心中的完美女性的形象。艾伦是贵族家庭的小姐,容貌漂亮、气质端庄、说话优雅,而且很有钱,但是却嫁给了杰拉尔德。杰拉尔德是怎样的一个人呢,他是一个靠赌博白手起家的野蛮人,性格暴躁、说话大声粗鲁,但是却非常精明,于是他可以从一个一穷二白的外省人成为当地拥有上百个黑奴的富有农场主,关键是还很好的融入了当地社会,受到了当地群众的尊重。
这对夫妻的对比非常明显,仅从这一段两人出身的描述中,你可能会认为在他们的婚姻中,肯定是杰拉尔德占主导地位,艾伦处于从属地位。从某些方面来看确实是的,艾伦和黑奴们对杰拉尔德非常尊重,都叫他“老爷”;作为一家之主,家里和外面的事情都由他拍板。但是,我们从细节认真来看事实是怎样的呢?
艾伦是一个贵族小姐,她的打扮、谈吐,不管是在家里或是面对客人、面对黑奴、面对外人时,她都能够保持一贯的优雅与高贵,按我们现在的说法叫做“自律”的气场,这是一般人难以做到的。这让杰拉尔德对她也十分尊重,或者说有一点像对待女神般的崇拜。能让丈夫在婚后还能像女神一般的对待你,这一点是大多数女性很难做到的。从射雕英雄传到神雕侠侣,嫁了人的黄蓉一下子从女神成为了精明的妇人。很多人都觉得在两部书中,黄蓉的性格差异太大了,我想也许这就是一个女人婚前婚后的差别呢。所谓女神,还不是要从一个或者一群人的神坛,走向另一个人的灶台,从不食烟火到护犊算计。
艾伦还非常的能干,操劳一生把塔拉农场、家庭事务、邻里相处打理的井井有条。所有的事情由杰拉尔德拍板,但是却由艾伦决定。注意,这里的决定和拍板绝对不是近义词。只有在艾伦在场的时候,黑奴们才汇报各项事务;如果杰拉尔德有不同的意见,尽管他非常大声,但是总会被艾伦的轻声细语说服;即使是杰拉尔德发布的命令,大家也会向艾伦询问一下建议再做执行。搁宫斗剧里面,艾伦应该是一个非常有手段的皇后。她的出身高贵、见识卓越,却非常的小鸟依人、和风细雨,让夫君感受不到一点威胁;总是在恰当的时间出现,以你的利益为出发点为你分忧;她的主意是如此之好,让你认为绝对没有比这更好的方法了,因此你会心怀感激却又有点不甘;但她是如此柔弱的一个人,最终的决定当然需要你做最后的拍板,于是你内心的一点点不甘也消失了。其实,杰拉尔德是有点怕艾伦的,或者说叫做“敬畏”。
出身贵族的艾伦品味高雅,从室内装饰到杰拉尔德个人的食衣住行、子女的教育、仆人的管理、邻里的相处,无一不流露出其大家风范,这让整个县城的人都对杰拉尔德这个鲁莽的农民态度改观,从最初的排挤到尊重。因此,杰拉尔德爱戴艾伦。
杰拉尔德肯定是爱他的妻子,在艾伦死后,杰拉尔德的精神有点失常了,他每天都能看到艾伦的身影出现在餐桌、会客室、办公室中;艾伦爱不爱杰拉尔德呢?我宁愿相信她是爱的,只是她自己不知道,(这一点跟她的女儿很像,她们爱的只是年少时候自己想象出来的影子),她操劳一生为他打理里里外外、生儿育女。尽管她最后死前叫了少女时期情人的名字,也许那也只是因为年少时期爱而不得的遗憾呢。(在每个女人的心中,发乎情止乎礼的初恋是最难忘的?)
由于艾伦的柔软与坚韧,使得杰拉尔德这个暴君一样的人物也变得柔软了,艾伦是他的精神支柱,虽然他很强壮,但是少了艾伦,他便失去了力量。艾伦真正做到了化百炼钢为绕指柔。这是高级的御夫之道?那是因为杰拉尔德肯心甘情愿让她“御”。两个人共同努力经营的婚姻才是美好的婚姻,可惜杰拉尔德始终没有得到艾伦完整的爱情。
三个女儿没有一个像艾伦,也许是因为艾伦一生的精力都在操持家庭事务,疏忽了与女儿的相处与教育吧,她与杰拉尔德的结合并不是由于爱情,她的家庭女主人的角色扮演的非常好,却在母亲的角色上有了欠缺。
斯嘉丽:霸道总裁与野蛮女友的纠缠
大部分女性读者都爱看霸道总裁爱上我的戏码,一个聪明多金、英俊潇洒、风流倜傥的霸道总裁,偏偏对一个不爱自己的女子一见钟情、再见倾心、三见相许,从此万花丛中过片叶不沾身。《飘》中的白瑞德正是第一代霸道总裁人设,但是遇到的偏偏是个野蛮女友。
我很喜欢斯嘉丽这个人物,又倔强又聪明又愚蠢。斯嘉丽的性格遗传了杰拉尔德,非常精明、倔强、不服输。南北战争开始后,塔拉农场被摧毁、母亲去世,靠着她的倔强恢复了农场经营;凭借她精明的经商头脑,在战后的亚特兰大城将生意做的风生水起,而那个时候美国贵族妇女是不能抛头露面的去做生意的。正像书中写的,她不是一个上等的女人,上等女人只需要穿的漂漂亮亮去参加舞会,她却在想方设法的弄钱。她那个时候已经非常有钱,但还是每天驾着马车在亚特兰大城奔走,与男人谈生意。她非常倔强,认定一个目标便不达目的不罢休。她过往的经历决定了她不相信任何人,她只相信钱。
我个人认为每个人都有自己的价值观,并没有完全正确与错误的价值观。斯嘉丽的价值观就是金钱至上,她想尽任何办法达到自己的目标——更多的钱、花不完的钱。她的聪明与倔强让她成为了亚特兰大城最有钱的女人。
但是她在感情上却又是极其愚蠢的一个人。从少女时期到中年时期,斯嘉丽一直爱着艾希礼。即使艾希礼已经娶了眉兰,她自己结了三次婚。在这一点上,斯嘉丽与母亲艾伦有着相似的地方,艾伦在心爱的情人表哥去世后,嫁给了霸道总裁杰拉尔德,虽然杰拉尔德敬她、爱她,却没有得到她完整的爱情;斯嘉丽虽然结了三次婚,但是心底一直爱着艾希礼。第一次结婚,是因为艾希礼要娶眉兰,她赌气在艾希礼婚礼前随便嫁给了一个男孩,第一个丈夫不久便在南北战争中战死了,她因此成为了一个带着儿子的寡妇;第二次结婚,是因为她要保住塔拉农场,抢了妹妹的未婚夫,这次结婚使她过上了不用担心温饱的生活,在亚特兰大城有了一间小小的杂货铺子;第三次结婚,嫁给白瑞德,是因为什么?书中的描写是,一个吻。
斯嘉丽是一个可以把爱情与婚姻分开的人,她的婚姻是为了保障自己的生活,而把爱情给了一个不切实际的幻影。她从始至终爱的艾希礼,只是年少时候一个美丽的幻影。与艾伦不同的是,艾希礼并没有死。斯嘉丽最后终于明白自己爱的一直都是白瑞德,但这时身心俱疲的白瑞德已经走了。
斯嘉丽的一次爱情、三次婚姻都是悲剧。我想,是因为她太固执,不像她母亲那样聪慧。尤其是跟白瑞德的感情纠缠,把读者看的太心疼了。一个多金英俊的霸道总裁,为你花钱、买礼物、在服丧期间花重金请你在舞会上跳舞(这一段描写太“苏”了)、支持你做生意、帮你出谋划策;在你怀孕期间为你驾马车,虽然怀的并不是自己的孩子;在大火烧到亚特兰大城的时候,冒着生命危险抢了一辆马车送你回塔拉;在乱糟糟的战后恢复期间暗中保护你;救了你的初恋艾希礼„„从头到尾他做了这么多,难道你以为这只是基于普通朋友间的人道主义援助?
终于等到斯嘉丽跟白瑞德结婚了,又看到俩人各种“作”。一个明明是深情款款、用情至深,却打死也不对你说;另一个明明动摇了,还是每天自我催眠对自己说,他不爱我、我不爱他,我爱他的钱、他爱我的颜,我的心里至死不渝的爱着艾希礼(虽然知道他是我最好朋友的丈夫)。作为一个读者,看的真是心累啊。恨不得自己能够钻到书对他俩说,你俩别“作”了,你俩真是天生一对。还好,斯嘉丽终于发现自己爱的并不是艾希礼,而是白瑞德。但是两个人共同的第一个孩子的死亡和第二个孩子的流产,导致白瑞德离她而去。
在书中,白瑞德和斯嘉丽都是令人喜欢的人物。但是在婚姻中,两个人却都不善于经营。也许是因为他们两个人的性格太相似了,棋逢对手却没有惺惺相惜。两个强势的人走到了一起,却没有一个人肯低头妥协,导致了他们婚姻的悲剧。
虽然书的最后给了开放性的结局,但是我相信,斯嘉丽一定会把白瑞德弄回来的。因为她回到了塔拉,想起了她的母亲艾伦。还因为斯嘉丽自己说的,“After all, tomorrow is another day!”
2017.2.10 后来看了边城,我觉得傩送一定不会回来了。斯嘉丽敢说“我一定能把白瑞德搞回来”,翠翠只会“睡在虎耳朵草的梦里,等傩送回来”。这两个人物都让我觉得很心疼。

目:论《飘》中斯嘉丽的婚姻观
专题题目(若无专题则不填):
原始依据(包括设计(论文)的工作基础、研究条件、应用环境、工作目的等): 玛格丽特.米契尔(Margaret Mitchell)的巨作《飘》展现了美国南北战争时期南方**的社会现实,以女主人公斯嘉丽为主线,描写了几对青年的爱情纠葛。作品一问世就引起了广大读者和评论家的极大关注。其中有些评论家对女主人公斯佳丽的婚姻观进行了评述。在《性别研究》——浅谈斯佳丽的婚姻悲剧中,作者分析了文学名著《飘》中的女主人公斯佳丽的悲剧婚姻。陈煜强在《斯嘉丽的婚姻观:马斯洛“需要理论”解读》中运用了马斯洛的‘需要理论'分析了斯嘉丽在不同的时期所确定的不同层次的需要,只要谁能满足她的需要,她就要委任以婚姻来保障她的需要能够得到较好地满足。由此我们可以看出《飘》中的女主人公斯佳丽展示了人性的某些真实特性,这些内容值得我们去研究和探讨。我们可以透过斯嘉丽每次婚姻的背景、特点,来看当时的历史,了解十九世纪的美国,了解美国女性主义的形成过程,也可通过研究斯嘉丽的爱情,树立正确的爱情观,以免后人再重蹈覆辙 主要内容和要求:(包括设计(研究)内容、主要指标与技术参数,并根据课题性质对学生提出具体要求):
玛格丽特·米切尔的小说《飘》中的主人公斯嘉丽是一个天生丽质,性格要强,勇于面对困难的女人,在经历了人生的跌宕起伏后,仍然能够坚强的面对人生,扛起整个家庭的重担。她出生于十九世纪中期,生活在美国南部佐治亚州一个富裕的庄园主家庭,她的母亲是优雅端庄的法国海滨贵族,父亲是粗狂豪爽的法兰西人,他们一个有着豪爽仗义的爱尔兰农民精明朴实的血统,一个有着极富教养的法国海滨贵族血统,斯佳丽就是这两种血统的交汇。加上其生活的佐治亚州是美国南方一个开化较晚、不拘礼仪的地区,那里有着独特的历史人文背景,孕育了一代具有极为浓厚的“南方性”情节的人们,这样的环境为斯佳丽性格的形成提供了自由的空间。于是特殊的家庭和特殊的社会环境造就了其特殊的性格--水一般的温柔与火一样的热烈,这种性格使其对爱情有着特殊的理解,既勇于追求爱情,又把爱情当做生活的交换条件。为了生活,她自由的穿梭于各色男人之间,却忽略了自己内心的真实感情,所以她的婚姻不是建立在爱情上的,每一次婚姻都是为了满足的她的不同需要,虽然最后她重建了塔拉庄园,得到了自己梦寐以求的金钱、地位,却失去了最宝贵的爱情。日程安排:
2010年7月至9月:搜集相关资料,对资料进行汇总 2010年9月至11月:完成开题报告 2010年11月至2011年1月:完成初稿 2011年1月至3月:论文修改

I.Introduction The novel ―Gone With The Wind‖ written by American writer Margaret Mitchell shocked me deeply, and she finished this great work with one billion words in 1936.The story started from April, 1861, spanning 12 years, and the background was US Civil War.The writer not only created a myth, but also shows her own personal charm to the world.Heroine Scarlett is a simple but very complex figure.On the surface she has kinds of good quality, quite, good-hearted, and full of ability like her mother Aland, but the vast majority of cases, the restless temperament to her behavior.She’s so beautiful that almost all the young men in the book are tempted by her.She seems to have become accustomed to dealing within these young men, like a cold hot fire but locked of love to blame, which almost makes many men crazy.She has strong cravings in all the good things, and she wants to take away the entire boy's heart.At first, Scarlett is like a proud, attractive princess.She tends to conquer the entire world and seize all the happiness.She loves Ashley very much though she doesn’t know him at all.Being angry, she gets married with Charles Hamilton who is Ashley’s wife’s brother.Unfortunately, Hamilton dies in the war and Scarlett becomes a widow.But the war destroys her life and makes her back to her motherland.Although she is strong and brave to make a living in the wartime, it’s not enough.In order to protect her families and industries, she gets married with Frank Kennedy who is Scarlett’s sister’s finance.After Kennedy’s death, she finally marries Rhett Butler who really loved her very much.However, Scarlett still loved Ashley from the bottom of the heart.But she never tries to know Rhett.She continues to pursue the unreal love towards Ashley.Until Melanie died did she know that Rhett is the only person who really loved her.But it’s too late.Rhett determined to leave her without hesitation.In the end, Scarlett had to tell herself that tomorrow is another day.From the story, we can see that Scarlett’s special spirit leads her special experiences and life.II.Scarlett’s Living Background
Before the war, she lives in the traditional and conservative plantation and the life style forms her plantation master’s character of loving land than anything else in the world and her rebellious character spontaneously.And Scarlett who is his first daughter gains much more love from her father, Gerald, and is impressed less than anyone else by his tempers and his roaring.Gerald had drifted it onto a habit of treating her in a man-to-man manner.[13] Naturally, Scarlett forms a particular
江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
character.We can say Scarlett’s father gives her brisk and restless vitality and dauntless quality.When Scarlett was a child, she had confused her mother with the Virgin Mary.As far black as Scarlett could remember, her mother had always been the same, her voice soft and sweet whether in praising or in reproving, and her manner efficient and unruffled.To her, Ellen represents the utter security that only Heaven or mother can give [13].She learns kindness, firmness and strong faith from Ellen.When Scarlett must face with all kinds of troubles, the love for Ellen gives her courage.The American Civil War was one of the most violent times in the History of the United States.Scarlett’s character matures in the war.She has experienced so many things.She leads an extremely poor life during and after the war, and that abominable environment molds her character to confront the reality bravely and her independence and selfishness to overcome difficulties.The rich life experience before war;the unstable life during the war and the extremely poor life after war provide the foundation to form the character of Scarlett.And thus in such environment, Scarlett’s character can be complicated.But the unforeseen events make her become destitute, homeless and poverty-stricken suddenly.III.Scarlett’s Marriage
3.1 Scarlett’s First Marriage
3.1.1 Background of Scarlett’s first marriage
It’s an unprepared marriage, it happened in a ignorant situation.To pursue the attachment that she carves for, unexpectedly, Scarlett decides to confess to Ashley audaciously at the barbecue and elope with him [12].Her exaggerated performance doesn’t work on Rhett Ashley Wilkes, and makes completely different effects.Scarlett can’t grasp the heart of Ashley Wilkes.What’s more, Rhett butler knows the relationship about them, and saw the scene when Scarlett told Ashley she loved him, and wanted to marry him, so she felt embarrassed and hated both of them.Scarlett’s hasty makes her pay a great price!After being refused by Ashley, Scarlett transfers all the emotions including love, anger and vanity to Charles who becomes her first husband.[7]
3.1.2 The characteristics of Scarlett’s first marriage
At that time, she is just a willful child;consequences and responsibility don’t seem to have relations to her.Soon after the war broke out, Charles die, Scarlett become a widow.According to the traditions among the Southerners, a widow had to
江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
wear hideous black dresses without even a touch of braid to enliven them, no flower or ribbon or lace or even jewelers, except onyx mourning brooches or necklaces made from the deceased’s hair.And the black crepe veil on her bonnet had to reach to her knees, and only after three years of widowhood could it be shortened to shoulder length.The widows could never chatter vivaciously or laugh aloud.Even when they smiled, it must be a sad, tragic smile.And, most dreadful of all, they could in no way indicate an interest in her;she must freeze him with a dignified but well-chosen reference to her dead husband.For Scarlett, widow might as well as be dead [13].Due to her rebellious character, the ―moral standard‖ doesn’t work on her, she even can’t cry for Charles, but keep widow life away from plain and boring.For Scarlett, widow might as well as be dead.So she continues to show her own charm and still attracts a lot of men again.She behaved as she had behaved before her marriage—went to parties, danced, went riding with soldiers, flirted, did everything she had done as a girl.[13]
However, war has changed Scarlett, the inward spirit in Scarlett burst.She took courage to take a baby for Melanie by herself.In order to get away from the war, she carried Melanie and the baby to her motherland.But her family changed.Her mother died and her father became crazy.Unavoidably, she became the bread winner in the family.She kills the Northern soldiers at the critical moment, and creates an extreme poverty.It all reflects her strong, courage, indomitable.3.1.3 The result of Scarlett’s first marriage
It’s a completely failing marriage.Scarlett and Charles Hamilton didn’t gain anything from the marriage, and they didn’t feel happy.Scarlett utilizes Charles to fulfill her selfishness.She never treated Charles as her husband.She married with him, because it makes her feel more close to Ashley.If Charles didn’t die in the war, they will divorce someday, because there is no love between them.3.2 Scarlett’s Second Marriage
3.2.1 Background of Scarlett’s second marriage
After her returning Tara for the first time her manor Tara is looted, What’s more, her mother has been dead, father has been dull-witted, two sisters are both ill and the slaves have run away.Since then Scarlett struggles for living.She should rebuild Tara so that her family and she can survive [8].When Scarlett says why the stomach had a longer memory than the mind [13], people will understand how poor they are, but she move on and support the whole family.To pay the tax money – three hundred dollars for Tara, she married her sister’s fiancé Frank who has enough money to save Tara
江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
after failing in borrowing from Rhett Butler.Besides, this causes her no qualm of conscience For living, Scarlett becomes selfish and speculative.She realizes the importance of money and believes that only money can give her safety in the world.3.2.2 The characteristics of Scarlett’s second marriage Scarlett is a beautiful, coquettish southern belle brought up on the Georgia plantation of Tara before the American Civil War [7].After the Civil War, Scarlett has to face the troubles alone while she is also tired and hungry.She helps Melanie to deliver a child and drives a carriage transporting a lying-in woman, two children and a stupid maidservant [10].So in her second marriage she doesn’t perform as a good wife or a mother all the same.She manages a shop of Frank and a mill regardless of her husband’s dissuasion and others’ criticisms [7].Even when she is pregnant she also appears in public.Already people were criticizing her for appearing in public when she was in such a condition [9].No lady ever showed herself when she was pregnant.While doing business, Scarlett is an expert.She always tries her best to pretend herself.She could upon occasion look so helpless and appealing that she melted hearts and sells a poor grade of lumber for the price of good lumber, even pushes her competitions’ lumber for business and money.Until now we can see that Scarlett does business by hook or by crook almost.In short, the selfishness and speculation are described incisively and vividly.3.2.3 The result of Scarlett’s second marriage
Scarlett treat this marriage as a deal, and she never love Frank or even care about him, Frank is a poor man, he never know he was treated by Scarlett and lose his true love until he was dead.3.3 Scarlett’s third marriage 3.3.1 Background of Scarlett’s third marriage
Not long after her second husband’s death, she marries Rhett for her third marriage.She marries him for the consideration that she will never have to bother about money again and never to worry about money again, and that Tara was safe, the family was fed and clothed, she would be safe.She marries him all because Rhett can Satisfied her, not for love.3.3.2 The characteristics of Scarlett’s third marriage
Scarlett is alike Rhett very much, they are all selfish and they will try all means to achieve their goals.They seem to be made for each other.In fact, Scarlett has already trusted in him and depended on him when she affiliates with him, but she doesn’t realize her love to him.Rhett to Scarlett, in the final scene: “You were such a child,江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
my dear, I wanted to marry you and protect you”.Rhett is such a man who can understands Scarlett and a man who has the ability to offer her support and help.He asks her to ignore the social conventions and encourages her to start her own business with the money given by him.He wants Scarlett to forget Ashley, but after long efforts he still cannot change her love and let her accept and understand his love for her which made he feel frustrated and tired.Scarlett’s fancy about Ashley slowly fades in the course of time, and she finally realizes that the man she loves is not real but an illusion.3.3.3 The result of Scarlett’s third marriage
In the past years she has ignored and refused Rhett’s love.In fact the real man who loves her, understands her, and always helps her is Rhett.It is Rhett who helps her out of the bondage of mourning, who saves her through the fire and explosions;who comforts her when she wakes up from the horrible nightmare.No man does such things without deep love in his heart.Scarlett realizes her feelings at last.However when she wants to tell him she loves him and she wants to restore their love, it becomes too late.The tragedy has taken place.Her daughter has died, and Rhett is tired and decides to leave her.What Scarlett loses is not only her love but also her soul, although she owns much in terms of materials comforts.However, Scarlett is determined enough to handle the difficulties by thinking ―tomorrow is another day‖ and ―things always look better in the morning‖.In her mind, tomorrow will be new and different.So she wants to return to her homeland, where she thinks she can find the source of her strength, and by building a bright ―tomorrow‖, she can win Rhett’s love back.3.3.4 Set up the correct love view Love is patient, love is kind.It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.Love is a choice, it’s a commitment.Bible says that God is love.God, as our designer and creator, made us with needs for love.Do you ever wonder why we constantly seek love from others but never feel completely satisfied? It’s because God designed us for an unconditional love, and we, as people, are flawed.Therefore, we should learn to love the one who loved us.Scarlett’s father believes that the best marriages should be arranged by the parents for the girl.Marrying one of the twins and then the plantations will build you
江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
a fine house, right where they join, in that big pine grove.Scarlett thinks that her father only deals with the questions from real profit, not from the feeling about love of her, so she refuses it.But she never regards marriage as a serious matter just treats it as a game, and she marries with the men she doesn’t love just because she wants to resolve living problems.It is widely accepted by most of people that love is the foundation of marriage.Unfortunately Scarlett never understands what love and marriage mean though she has experienced marriage three times.She somewhat thinks that marriage can be separated from love, which proves that she is a character full of contradiction and complexity.However, she knows what she really want, and have the courage to pursue it though sometimes she is wrong.IV.Conclusion
There are many aspects that have deep effects on the shaping of Scarlett’s character, among which the triangular love between Scarlett, Ashley and Rhett is a distinct one.Scarlett fell in love with Ashley blindly, which shows her immaturity because Ashley is a man who still lives in the past even after the death of Melanie and can’t face the reality.His cowardice and decadence cannot match Scarlett’s bravery and unyieldingness.She is bruised by Ashley’s refusal several times.When Scarlett realizes that Ashley is not the man she wants, she turns to Rhett, showing her realistic character.Rhett always loves her and supports her though Scarlett holds the man in utter contempt.But Rhett tolerates Scarlett’s bad manners towards him and waits for Scarlett’s love.Under the tolerance of Rhett, she shows her rebellion, her vanity and selfishness.She can’t realize her true feeling and she avoids facing the reality of the spirit.Until her dream for Ashley is broken and Rhett’s patience is exhausted, she realizes the value of Rhett.But it is too late because Rhett decides to leave Scarlett in an extremity of pain.Scarlett always thinks of tomorrow and she has never been defeated by any difficulty, so it is better to see her not being blown down.She always encourages herself that ―Tomorrow is another day‖ and ―Things always look better in the morning.‖ She still believes that she can get Rhett back finally.As a woman, Scarlett is admired for her bravery and strong will.I am shocked by the indomitable spirit of Scarlett facing difficulties.To her, I really admire her.Scarlett is so brave that she can support the family in poor condition.She is sacrifice to her motherland that she tried her best to protect her.She can do farm work in spite of usual education.She can create her great business in spite of other’s comment.At the end of the story, there is classic ending.―I won’t think of it,‖ she said again, aloud.―I’ll think of it all tomorrow, at Tara.Tomorrow, I’ll think of some way to get him
江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
back, After all, tomorrow is another day.‖ Standing on that land, she can’t forget the forever land.Tomorrow is willful.In our daily life, we should also have some sort of qualities.We must cherish any trivial happiness instead of ignoring.When we face difficulties, we should be brave and confident.Tomorrow is another day!Though I didn’t admire her view of love, I love her.江西理工大学2011届专科生毕业论文
