...1. Portrait of a Lady 2. A Confederacy of Dunces 3. Gone with the Wind 4. The Heart of Darkness In the novel "Gone with the Wind" Margaret Mitchell creates the character Scarlett O'Hara, whose fiery but often misguided passion leads her into unwise actions, but also helps her to survive loss and tragedy. The male speaker of Ernest Dowson's poem justifies his unfaithfulness to Cynara by calling it just the opposite, but he shares a similarly passionate nature with Scarlett: I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind, Flung roses, roses riotously with the throng, Dancing, to put thy pale, lost lilies out of mind; But I was desolate and sick of an old passion, Yea, all the time, because the dance was long: I have been faithful to thee, Cynara! in my fashion. Dowson, in turn, is borrowing from the Latin poet Horace in this poem with the title "Non Sum Qualis Eram Bonae sub Regno Cynarae": "I am not as I was under the reign of the good Cynara."
