It is not only a romantic novel, but also a great work of discussing the changes in 1860s’ America. It reflects preferably great historical projects such as the southern situation, social problem, disintegration of the southern plantation, feminism, etc. It has a deep literary value.
The topic focuses on the times that women were in a very low position and in the story, the women’s wisdom and courage were no less than men, and even beyond the men. Based on the theoretical foundation and through the exploration of Gone with the Wind in detail, the author attempts to study the close relationship between feminism and society.
This thesis consists of two chapters with one introduction and a conclusion. The introduction scans the historical background and the women’s characteristics and position in that society. Chapter One mainly analyzes the pre-war social system and slavery in the south America, and Scarlett, Melanie and other women’s changing characteristics and struggle in the war. And then it leads out Chapter Two which explores the process of Feminine consciousness wakening and women’s movements.
The conclusion summarizes the views of this thesis and suggests that Gone with the Wind should be taken as a potential target of feminist studies.
