《飘》读后感

《飘》是美国女作家玛格丽特·米切尔发表过的唯一一部小说。小说自19xx年问世以来，一直畅销不衰，不仅在美国，而且在全世界都受到广大读者的喜爱，现已公认是美国南北战争为背景的爱情小说的经典之作。全书不论是华美流畅的语言描写，还是个性鲜活的人物塑造，都达到的登峰造极的地步。真不愧是世界文学的瑰宝。

小说以亚特兰大以及附近的一个种植园为故事场景，描绘了内战前后美国南方人的生活。作品刻画了那个时代的许多南方人的形象，占中心位置的人物斯佳丽、瑞德、艾希礼、枚兰妮等人是其中的典型代表。他们的习俗礼仪、言行举止、精神观念、政治态度，以至于衣着打扮等等，在小说里都叙述得十分详尽。可以说小说成功生动地再现了那个时代美国南方地区的社会生活。

我们之前所接触的历史很冰冷，仿佛就是一场为黑人解放而运行的必要手段。北方是正义，南方是无知。 可是在《飘》中，南方的视角将这场战争表现得居然让不爱战争的我想哭。人与人之间的复杂关系在战争中的表现，被米切尔写得十分浪漫，不论是正面关系还是负面关系。

勇敢的思嘉注定总是以积极的心态去面对生活，永远充满了希望，充满斗志，永远不会放弃，永远不会绝望。她的经典名言“明天又是新的一天”相信大家都感触很深。而枚兰，她的善良，真的是太伟大了，看着玫兰，使我想到许许多多的中国古代女性，她们也是如此的善良，任劳任怨，相夫教子，然后默默无名地老去、死去。至于瑞德他是深沉智慧的，但是有时候过于深沉会在患得患失中错过很多。在我们的现实生活中也是一样的，要像思嘉一样可以休息但决不放弃。至于枚兰，她的美德散发出的馨香让她如此高贵，让你我景仰。社会因道德的沦丧正变得污浊不堪。但你我是否曾低头审视自己的心灵，看着那一泓清泉是否依然澄澈?走在街头，那么多冰冷的脸与茫然的眼神，再想保持善意的心也会因一次次的被利用变得满是怀疑。于是，当我们不再坚持道德底线的一次又一次退后，让我们最后悲哀地发现世风不古。多想想枚兰吧，虽然我们不是她，但我们需要她的精神永恒不变的善良和坚强。

《飘》是一部波澜壮阔而又细致入微的伟作，是一部值得再三品味的好书。它描写战争给人们带来的灾难以及它对人们心灵和精神上所带来的创伤，子弹是无情的，它可以毫不费力的穿透某一个人的身体，炮火是可怕的，它可以轻而易举的毁掉一个温暖的家，或许作为读者的我们永远无法体会到斯佳丽在亚特兰大被战火焚烧的那种恐惧与绝望，永远也无法体会到她在战火后的塔拉所忍受的饥饿，但斯佳丽身上那种为了追求心中的希望而不轻易退缩的精神却感染了我们,我们会追求自己的幸福，虽然会遇到很多的困难和挫折，但我们不应该放弃自己的欲望和追求。正像斯佳丽所说的：“还是留给明天去想吧??不管怎么说，明天又是新的一天??”不管有多少痛楚都已经属于过去了，而明天又是另外一天了。只有把每一个明天当作新的起点，为实现自己的目标更加努力奋斗的人，才算得上是智者。

Gone With The Wind

The novel is set in North Georgia at the time of the American Civil War, from 1861 to 1865 and beyond when the Southern plantation owners fought the northern Yankees for the right to own slaves. They lost the war, suffered innumerable losses of life in the process, and the romantic plantation life depicted in the early chapters of the novel is destroyed. During this period the characters in the novel undergo the transition from a carefree playful life of picnics and parties (underlain by the hard graft of their slaves) to one of hand-to-mouth living and hard physical labour, and finally, back to prosperity.

About Scarlett O’Hara and Brave

Scarlett O‘Hara is a spoilt society beauty with ―bristling black eyelashes‖ – I love this description! – which she uses to charm men. She lives with her sisters and parents on their plantation estate with dozens of slaves, including Mammy, their black housekeeper who is regarded (as much as was possible at that time) part of the family and plays an important role in Scarlett‘s life. The storyline centres around Scarlett‘s life at the time of the civil war and the other characters which interact with her.

The book starts with the heroine of the piece, 17 year old Miss Scarlett O‘Hara flirting to the best of her capacity with the handsome Tarleton twins on the porch of Tara, her plantation house home, and berating the seriousness of the impending war because it ruins her capacity to have fun, attend parties and have beaux. I mention this first page because it encapsulates the very nature of the entire novel. Scarlett O‘Hara is a spoilt, selfish beauty with enormous power to manipulate men and a desire for the good things in life. Knowing this, you can see why she makes some of her seemingly ridiculous choices throughout the novel.

Throughout the novel Scarlett makes some appalling decisions, such as marrying the shy, nervous Charles Hamilton (Melanie‘s brother) for spite because Ashley dared to marry Melanie. She quickly finds that married life isn‘t what it‘s cracked up to be, and that she can no-longer flirt to her heart‘s content. Matters are made even worse when Charles dies while at war, and Scarlett is doomed to years of widowhood, wearing black and no

dancing. Worse than this even, she is pregnant with her first child, a fact she despises. However, Scarlett is not one to be held down for long and she quickly rebels against the constraints the society imposes by both dancing and wearing brightly coloured clothing (at Rhett‘s impetus) while still in mourning.

Later on when the guns of war come close around Scarlett and her comrades she shows surprising resilience and strength, delivering Melanie‘s baby single-handed amid the

sacking of Atlanta, and taking on the responsibility of managing Tara. She proves to be a

41050254 信息1009 齐沈桐 英文读后感 《飘》

sound and resourceful businesswoman, who can make difficult decisions when they are needed.

You can‘t help but like Scarlett. She‘s hopelessly selfish, vain, manipulative, deluded and foolish, but she‘s also an extremely vivacious, loyal and strong character who can be relied upon to say and do just exactly what she thinks, regardless of the impact on other people. Again and again through the novel you find yourself thinking ―No Don‘t do that!‖ but you know she‘s going to do it anyway.

About Rhett Butler and Love

Rhett Butler is a dashing renegade, the man who is rumoured to have ruined a woman (whispered in shocked tones among Scarlett‘s companions). But he is a hero at the same time.He jeered the South‘s arrogant,but when he saw the soldiers fight bravely to protect their home,he was moved and join the army immediately. Butler is not a traditional gentleman.He is overbearing and wanton,foxery and unpoitely. He is a man who is full of contradiction which makes him so charming. That is the reality of social calm and unrestrained passion of love, like the mixture of fire and ice. We interpret his character by way of analyzing his attitude to the South and the War. His tortuous and full of tragic love story reflect his passion love to Scarlett. Furthermore, we expound on the reason of his character formation. That is particular growth experience and social environment of the time. The theme of the paper is the courage of straighten the life, the indestructible spirit. The practical significance of this character shaped by Rhett is revealing the strength and weaknesses of personality

When Scarlett first met Rhett,she said,

‘sir, you are no gentleman!‘

And Butler answered sarcastically,

?And you, miss, are no lady!‘

At that time, their fate has been an opened book.

Rhett Butler, known for his scandalous ways with women, is the first man to ever offer her real love, along with all the material possessions she could ever ask for. He also happens to be the first man besides her father to truly understand her, her flaws and attributes; in effect, he becomes a kind of solid rock for Scarlet throughout the picture. Their love is a thwarted union of two passionate spirits—share equal focus with the story of people swept along by the forces of history.

But Scarlett still can not forget Ashely,her first love--- a misplaced, deluded infatuation.She still fifn‘t realize that she is nobody to Ashely and the man who really cares about her tears is Rhett.And this really hurts Rhett.

So Rhett turned his love to Bonnie----their daughter.He dote on Bonnie,treat her like a princess.He do everything for her to make her to be a respectable lade in the future.He ingratiate the upper class just for raising a good reputation for his dear little Bonnie.

When Bonnie was dead, he was drastically collapsed. He told Melanie that Bonnie is the

first one that really belongs to him and she is almost the same like her mother Scarlett. He loved her so much,he wants her to be seraphic and happy, he wanted to protect her away from all the fears and darkness.

Rhett , his love is to protect, to connive.

About the war

The American Civil War (1861–1865), also known as the War Between the States (among other names), was a civil war in the United States of America. Eleven Southern slave states declared their secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, also known as "the Confederacy." Led by Jefferson Davis, the Confederacy fought against the United States (the Union), which was supported by all the free states (where slavery had been abolished) and by five slave states that became known as the border states.

In the presidential election of 1860, the Republican Party, led by Abraham Lincoln, had campaigned against the expansion of slavery beyond the states in which it already existed. In response to the Republican victory in that election, seven states declared their secession from the Union before Lincoln took office on March 4, 1861. Both the outgoing administration of President James Buchanan and Lincoln's incoming administration rejected the legality of secession, considering it rebellion. Several other slave states rejected calls for secession at this point

Confederate commander Robert E. Lee won battles in the east, but in 1863 his northward advance was turned back with heavy casualties after the Battle of Gettysburg. To the west, the Union gained control of the Mississippi River after their capture of Vicksburg, Mississippi, thereby splitting the Confederacy in two. The Union was able to capitalize on its long-term advantages in men and materiel by 1864 when Ulysses S. Grant fought battles of attrition against Lee, while Union general William Tecumseh Sherman captured Atlanta and marched to the sea. Confederate resistance ended after Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865.

The American Civil War was one of the earliest true industrial wars. Railroads, the telegraph, steamships, and mass-produced weapons were employed extensively. The practices of total war, developed by Sherman in Georgia, and of trench warfare around Petersburg foreshadowed World War I in Europe. It remains the deadliest war in American history, resulting in the deaths of 620,000 soldiers and an undetermined number of civilian casualties. Ten percent of all Northern males 20–45 years of age died, as did 30 percent of all Southern white males aged 18–40.

In the book, Michell presented us a ruthless and misery picture of war through Scarlett‘s eyes.

"War is a hellish way to settle a disagreement"

The war caused poverty , plague,criminal and panic.The war ruined Scarlett‘s home, the spoiled beauty had to pich cotton and be the householder.All these tragedies were because of the war. Michell told us all these oppinions of war from a special female visual angle.
