Scarlett’s Deviation from the South

Abstract: Being one of the members of the Southern America, Scarlett O’Hara, the heroine of Gone With the Wind, was not the deviant of the South as people often regarded. Deep inside her heart, the South had always been her homeland; and as everyone else there, she possessed a deep complex for the South. She was willing and even expecting to be a gentlewoman and to live the idyllic life in the South. However, for that history is a one-way path that isnt within the hands of men, the Civil War that destroyed the entire foundation on which the whole South relied also demolished her fine dream and drove her onto the road of deviation. The violence of the war, the cruelty of the naked reality and the loss of the southern mens onstage role forced her to stand out and take up the heavy burdens of protecting and rebuilding her home as those southern men once did. Owing to the shift of her role from a woman to a man, changes were required for her to adapt to the changing new environment; and it were those exact changes that drove her farther and farther from the traditional South for which she was wholeheartedly longing. Therefore, her deviation from the South was the very result of those external factors caused by the Civil War; it was her unwilling yet unconscious choice that reflected the existent states of the little in the great times.

摘要:作为一个南方人,《飘》的主人公郝思嘉并非如人们想象的是南方的背离者。在她的内心深处,南方从来就是她的家园。她同其他人一样,具有深深的南方情结。就她的本意,她是希望并且愿意过南方田园牧歌式的生活,成为一个南方淑女的。但历史是条无可选择的单行道,战争摧毁了传统南方赖以生存的基础,使她的这种选择成为了不可能,不得不走上了背离南方的道路。战争的风云,现实的严酷和在这样的现实下南方男人的前台角色的缺失迫使她不得不站出来承担起保卫家园,重建家园的重任,在新南方这个男性社会里分一杯羹。角色的转变使得她不得不做出一些改变以适应变化了的新环境,而这些改变使得她离自己真心渴望的传统南方越来越远。她对南方的背离是在战争等外部因素重压的结果,是她无可奈何的无意识选择,反映了小人物在大时代的压迫下的生存状态。
