The both sides have the paradoxical relationship. In philosophy we call contradiction. We can learn this in our politi

11、cal book. When I first read these sentences, they bothered me. But now I think it is reasonable for Scarlet. The author broke the traditional writing style, which used perfectionism to describe the story, and put two extreme personalities, kindness and evil, into Scarlet. No matter description of he

12、r behaviors, her words or her emotion, this novel gave us a paradoxical character. Her kindness and evil turned each other. We can not know whether she was a kind person or bad one. Let us analyze the contradiction in her character seriously. Her double personality showed: selfish lady before the wa

13、r, brave matriarch in the war, shrewd businesswoman after war. 1.1 selfish lady before the war The life before the war was comfortable and she was a lady in rich family.

14、hor showed her rebel personality “she was not very beautiful, but attractive to boys ”. She was different with other lady. She could ride and her innocent was just a mask to pretend her shrewdness. Her belief also showed the rebel personality in her deep heart. This was that she could not do anythin

15、g she wanted do and she could show her weak to men. She could not be stupid in front of men so that they would think they were important. She would do anything she wanted to do and say anything she wanted to say. She did not care about how the people thought. Her belief satirized the hypocrisy of th

16、e feudalism. If she showed her charming smile to you, she must need you help. The selfishness in her personality was showed in her social life when she was a girl. She asked she must the center around the people. When the topic people talked was not about her, she felt very comfortable. When the top

17、ic was war or other girls, she must cry “I go to the room now”. She just cared about her beautiful cloths, or whether Aixili loved her. We can know her selfishness at this stage. When she was refused after showing her heart to Aixili, she made a shocked decision that she married to Charley. Though s

18、he did not love him.1.2 brave matriarchs in the war Brave is shinning strong point in her personality. God blessed her so that she was born in rich family and she had a charming appearance. At the same time there were a lot of adversaries in her life. However she never gave up. Aixili estimated her:

19、 she was so brave that I had not seen her cried. She escaped the war-ridden Atlanta to the destroyed house, she took the responsibility to rebuilt the homeland instead of depress. She did not care about her noble identity and worked hard like other servants. She was struggling with bitter life and n

20、ever gave up. Though this war, she got rid of the weakness of the girl instead of the vitality to the life. She was the stronger in the life. When the author wrote this chapter, she showed her other side. Though the life of Scarlet, we could know her brave disposition in her life. She risked her lif

How many nights no one could be depended, as long as she thought many people need her, she was frightened. However in the morning, it was another day, she must be stron

23、ger.1.3 shrewd businesswoman after war The war not only destroyed her home but also changed her mind. The fears for poverty and starvation droved her to pursuit the money. In order to protect Tara, she robbed her sisters boy friend. She used any way she could do to protect fathers career. She ran a

24、shop to develop her own business. Her behaviors had broken the convention that women only stayed at home. She entered the world of men and competed with them. She pursued the satisfaction money took and became the slave of the money. The nightmare which repeated again and again showed her weakness.

25、This also told us why she was eager for the money. Nothing could be depended in the word except the money. Something terrible ran after her all the time. She ran and ran as if her heart jumped out. She wanted to find a safe place to hide. This nightmare tortured her all the night so that she could n

26、ot sleep well. In this dream, we can know her motive for making money-that was fear for poverty and starvation. There was foggy in her nightmare and something terrible ran after her.

31、 the world, not only physiologically but also mentally. However she inherited these two excellent genes. Those aspects determined her double characters.
