Comparing Time of the Temptress and Gone With the Wind      In the Harlequin romance Time of the Temptress, by Violet Winspear, the author seems to be trying to write an intelligent story of romance, bettered by its literary self-awareness. She fails on both counts. Winspear appears to recognize that more valued literature tends to involve symbolism and allusions to other works. It seems she is trying to use archetypes and allusions in her own novel, but her references to alternate literature

and relied on medications to keep herself emotionally stable, eventually dying from an accidental overdose. These are just a few sad Hollywood lives that many stars hold claim to, and Vivien Leigh was no exception. Best known as Scarlett O’Hara from Gone With The Wind (1939), she continued to live an increasingly depressing life as her career pressed on. Vivien Leigh was born November 5, 1913, in Darjeeling, India. At a young age she decided she wanted to become famous, and pursued a career in acting

The Civil War: Since Margaret Mitchell wanted to write as historically accurate as possible, I am going to draw in some factors from the real Civil War.

Both the film and novel are romanticising the Old South and the happy complacency of slaves, and the film chose to draw away even further from the realism that Mitchell had in the book. The film is set during the Civil War when the United States were trying to

both write about the South in its antebellum, during the Civil War, and the outcome post-Civil War. However, Faulkner examines the unseen South with Absalom, Absalom! while Mitchell writes about the South that most readers are already familiar with in Gone with the Wind.
