Scarlett O'Hara

Gone with the Wind is a novel written by Margaret Mitchell set in Clayton County, Georgia, and Atlanta during the American Civil War and Reconstruction era. It depicts the struggles of young Scarlett O'Hara, the spoiled daughter of a well-to-do plantation owner, who must use every means at her disposal to claw her way out of the poverty she finds herself in during the war. Mitchell's use of color in the novel is symbolic. Red, green, and a variety of hues of each of these colors, are the predominant palette of colors encompassing the character of Scarlett. Symbolically, red and green have been broadly defined to mean "vitality" (red) and "rebirth" (green). For the Irish and others, green in the novel represents Mitchell's commemoration of her "Green Irish authentic heritage". By her name, Scarlett evokes emotions and images of the color scarlet: "blood, passion, anger, sexuality, madness".
