The characterization of Gone with the Wind broke the traditional single characterization method, and the multiple combinations of characters became a highlight of the novel, which vividly showed the vivid characters with the war as the background, and also showed the author's views on black equality from the Scarlett family.

The combination of characters shows a round character, and many aspects of the historical environment of the novel are shown through the round collection of characters, thus recording a turbulent history, a moment filled with smoke and the growth of different people at this moment in detail.

Through different personality development, it reveals the far-reaching influence of environment on people, and this description method of personality combination also has a great influence on the artistic creation of later novels.

metaphor

Gone with the Wind is a novel set in the American Civil War and post-war reconstruction. Its literal translation should be Gone with the Wind. It is quoted from a poem by the English poet Hester Dawson, and also from an overview in Chapter 24 of the novel. From the mouth of the heroine Scarlett, the general idea is that the war swept away her "whole world" like the wind, and her farm also "drifted".

Scarlett used this sentence to express the thoughts and feelings of southern farmers. The author uses it as the title of the book, which also shows her views on the civil war, which is completely consistent with the content of this book. The title of the book contains two meanings: the whistling wind refers to the civil war; Floating clouds refer to a comfortable serfdom life.
