Conclusion Scarlett O’Hara lives in the Confederacy and everyone there is for fighting for his or her noble cause. The young belle Scarlett is forced to do things she never thinks as a girl of her class. Throughout the novel, she is faced with serious problems. Scarlett plainly states, she will not think of problems today, she will think of it tomorrow, for tomorrow is another day, which of course she never does. However, such idea makes her character stay strong, although sometimes makes her live in a daydream. Without telling herself tomorrow is another day, Scarlett would have broken down in the very beginning after the war had started. Scarlett’s character is plicated. She is brave, determined, obstinate, independent and selfstriving. All these characters have a deep influence on her life and love. She claims to strive and pete to gain success, even deceive and speculate others. She is a successful selffighter and pragmatist. At the beginning of the novel living in Tara, Scarlett is a wild and strongwilled lady. She is not only charming and attractive, but also vain, willful, naive and selfish. When Scarlett first lives in Atlanta, the disappointment of love and the suffering of the war make her bee brave and responsible, and she is selfish and carefree. Coming back to her home Tara, in order to keep her home around, Scarlett bees brave, determined, obstinate, selfstriving and greedy. Then when Scarlett goes back to Atlanta, she is independent, determined, indomitable and selfcentered. So in my viewpoint, the whole novel shows the four periods of the characterization of Scarlett. From a young charming, vain and selfcentered girl, Scarlett gradually grows up as a brave, determined, hard working, independent and selfstriving woman, urged by the war and life. Endnotes 1.

Today, because of extensive new research and profound changes in American race relations, historians view Reconstruction far more favorably, as a time of genuine progress for former slaves and the South as a whole. For all Americans, Reconstruction was a time of fundamental social, economic, and political change. The overthrow of Reconstruction left to future generations the troublesome problem of racial justice. Ⅱ . Analysis of the character of Scarlett in four periods Scarlett is plicated.
