7、为一部优雅的艺术之作，甚至不能进入美国文学的神圣殿堂。小说的女主人公斯佳丽被他们描绘成一个极度自私、爱慕虚荣、冷酷无情、为达目的不择手段的女性。但是，经过时间的洗礼，飘越来越闪耀出其旷世经典的光芒，更拥有了无数的支持者。 文章由引言、战前的斯佳丽、战时的斯佳丽、战后的斯佳丽、对比、结论五部分构成。引言简要介绍作者的生平、以及当时的女性主义。作者玛格丽特.米歇尔是一个具有女性主义意识的女作家。她在小说中含蓄的批判了美国内战时期的南方妇道观，通过委婉的语言更深刻彻底的揭示出南方妇道观的虚伪、愚昧和对妇女的压抑。战前、中、后的斯佳丽具体的阐述了主人公是怎样从战前一个自私、任性但又坚强、勇敢的南方贵族

8、千金小姐转变为战时的懂得照顾别人、果敢但又有些残酷的生活上的勇士既而转变为战后的勤劳、有心计、有思想、有远见的南方新女性。对比部分主要是斯佳丽与媚兰与斯佳丽对比。斯佳丽与媚兰是小说中性格截然不同的两个女主人公，而不同的性格是她们的人生也大相径庭。思嘉果断、坚决的性格决定了她奋进的一生，媚兰的宽容、坚韧同样注定了她终生的勤苦。结论通过全篇总结得出，跟她的三个主要人生经历密不可分，通过对社会背景、人生经历和对比的分析，总结出斯佳丽一如既往的性格和由生活所迫改变了的性格并日益成熟，逐渐的成为有思想、有远见的南方新女性。关键词：飘 战争 女性主义 对比 abstractgone with the wi

20、he lived all her life. her mother was a suffragist, father a prominent lawyer and president of the atlanta historical society. mitchell grew up listening to stories about old atlanta and the battles the confederate army had fought there during the american civil war. at the age of fifteen she wrote

21、in her journal: “if i were a boy, i would try for west point, if i could make it, or well id be a prize fighter.” mitchell graduated from the local washington seminary and started in 1918 to study medicine at smith college. in her youth mitchell adopted her mothers feminist leanings which clashed wi

22、th her fathers conservatism, but she lived fully the jazz age and wrote about it in nonfiction, like in her article dancers now drown out even the cowbell in he atlanta journal sunday magazine. when mitchells mother died in 1919, she returned to home to keep house for her father and brother. in 1922

23、 she married berrien kennard upshaw. the disastrous marriage was climaxed by spousal rape and was annulled in 1924. mitchell started her career as a journalist in 1922 under the name peggy mitchell, writing articles, interviews, sketches, and book reviews for the atlanta journal. four years later sh

24、e resigned after an ankle injury. her second husband, john robert marsh, an advertising manager, encouraged mitchell in her writing aspirations. from 1926 to 1929 she wrote gone with the wind, the novel took her nearly ten years. she never thought that so many people favor it even now. the book brok

26、he books popularity. john peale bishop dismissed the novel as merely “one more of those 1000 page novels, competent but neither very good nor very sound.” but in these opponents sounds, the book was awarded the pulitzer prize.although gone with the wind brought mitchell fame and a tremendous fortune

27、, it seems to have brought little joy. chased by the press and public, the author and her husband lived modestly and traveled rarely. also questions about the books literary status and racism, historical view and depiction of the klux klan, which had many similarities with d.w. griffiths film the bi

28、rth of a nation (1915), led to critical neglect that continued well in the 1960s. griffiths film was based on the reverend thomas dixons racist play; the author was a great admirer of mitchell and wanted to write a study of her novel. in atlanta the klan kept a high profile and had it national headq

32、men and women. engels the origin of the family, private property, and the state (1884) provides the most comprehensive account of patriarchal history and economy. his explanation of the roots of womens subjugation in the main institutions of class society is a giant step forward and lays the foundat

33、ion for a scientific understanding of womens plight. but mitchell wrote a distinctly feminist novel. she sounds the note early with the narrators comment that “at no time, before or since, has so low a premium been placed on feminine naturalness,” and she mercilessly exposes a southern patriarchy th

34、at requires that women be flatteringly subservient to males, no matter how much less intelligent and capable. but even more telling than its overtly repeated feminist message, it is a novel dominated by strong womenscarlett, melanie, ellen ohara (scarletts mother), mrs. tarleton, grandma fontaine, m

35、rs. meade, and mammy. mitchell takes pains to show the spine of a southern matriarchy secretly underlying a patriarchy.some critics have argued that scarletts feminist success story is undercut by a sexual desire to be engulfed and dominated. mitchell does problematize human sexuality. ashley wilkes

36、s own fear of being passionately released but then engulfed and dominated by scarlett is a case in point. “you would want all of a man,” he laments. in mitchells failure to bend sexual desire to some clinically theorized, balanced, emotionally healthy paradigm, she is a model.1.3 about american mode

37、rnismamerican modernism lasted from 1900 to about 1940 and postmodernism was in vogue from 1960s to 1980s. gone with the wind was written during 1920s to 1930s, and also margaret mitchell was a modernism writer. during the first decades of the 20th century modernism became an international tendency

38、in art and literature. it began in germany in the 1890s, and spread worldwide, and ended in the early 1940s. it included a wide range of artistic expressions such as symbolism, impressionism, imagism post-impressionism, expressionism and so on.1.4 about the american civil warthe american civil war w

39、as broke out in 1861 and last for five years. the westward movement, the two different economic systems of the north and the south and the upsurge of the workers movement formed the main aspects of the situation before the civil war. in the north the capitalist economy developed rapidly and industri

40、al production advanced at an amazing speed. the output value of manufacture increased almost three times from 1840 to 1869. coal and iron production were greatly increased. transportation was also improved. many canals were dug and thousands of miles of railway were built. all this stimulated the fu

41、rther development of industry. by 1860, american industry had ranked fourth in the world. but in the south things were quite different. the south had a large number of plantations on which negro slaves were made to work. they grew cotton and tobacco, but there was little industry. so cotton and toba

42、cco were exported as raw materials for they could not be processed there. plantation owners kept a great number of slaves, and slave labor was totally depended upon. the plantation owners of the south insisted that the slavery system should be kept because they considered slaves to constitute cheap

43、labor, while the industrial capitalists of the north found free labor was more economical and therefore more profitable for their industry. this was the main cause of the conflict and also the main cause of the civil war between the north and the south.on april 19th, 1861, president lincoln ordered

44、the federal navy to blockade the atlantic coast from south carolina to florida. when the war stared, the north enjoyed a decided advantage. here has the contrast between the north and the south.the north:a mighty economy due to its ability of industrial production.twenty-three states remaining in th

47、t was the broad masses who secured the victory with life and blood. the abolition of slavery and the emancipation of the negroes enabled the country to develop more rapidly in every field and most americans were glad to see that their country was no longer associated with slavery and the union was h

50、 of honor: a metaphor for the souths viewpoint on the statehood of kansas. nevertheless, the book includes a vivid description of the fall of atlanta in 1864 and the devastation of war (some of it absent from the 1939 film), and shows a considerable amount of historical research. mitchells sweeping

53、the title phrase also appears in the novel: when scarlett of french-irish ancestry escapes the bombardment of atlanta by northern forces; she flees back to her familys plantation, tara. at one point, she wondered, “was tara still standing? or was tara also gone with the wind which had swept through
