摘 要
这篇文章主要描述了文学名著《飘》中的女主人公—斯佳丽·奥哈拉,她独特的个性,与小说中其他人物的关系,以及她总是被批判﹑谴责的原因。
wWW..cOM斯佳丽不同于其他贵族妇女,她聪明﹑迷人﹑勤勉并且倔强而坚定。
她共有三次婚姻,枪杀了一名正在家中行窃的北方士兵;后来买下锯木厂,自己为卖木材而四处奔波,最后公然地赚取了很多钱。
在许多绅士还过着贫困潦倒的生活时,她却获得了成功,这是人们认为最不能接受的事情。
她与众
不同,因此被谴责,但却是“旧”时代的“新”女性。
毫无疑问,如果斯佳丽生活在当今社会,她会很幸福,同时也是我们学习的好榜样。
当然,我们不能效仿她的一切;另一方面,当今的评判家应该从怎样在现代社会生存的角度,来对她作出全新的评价。
与众不同,并不意味着该被批判。
关键词
反叛;与众不同;新女性
