In March, what is March's idealism throughout the entire story?

s
idealism finds expression in many ways, but primarily it is made known by his commitment to
abolitionism and his attitude toward black people. For instance, even though he is struck by the
difference between what he writes home in his letters and what he is actually experiencing in
the war, his convictions about the justness of the war and his own participation in it are
unshaken. March often is unable to separate his ideals from the real world results of his
actions, and he has a giant blind spot when it comes to understanding his own motivations. This
last point is most clearly seen in his relationships with Marmee and Grace; he is unable to
understand Marmees struggle against being defined by her gender (even while he is attracted to
her freethinking nature), and his idealization of Grace similarly makes it impossible for him to
understand the true cost of her decision to stay with her ailing white father. There is a sense
by the end...
