Acknowledgements
I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all the teachers who have taught me and offered me invaluable advice during my four-year study at University.
In particular I would like to thank my supervisors, Ms.Yang. She has been available at all times with a helpful advice and a helping hand throughout my whole writing process of the thesis. She has provide me with instructive guidance in modifying the topic, in preparing the material pertinent to the topic and in writing the thesis, and has paid great patience in reading and revising the entire manuscript. Without her generous help, I could not even complete the thesis, let alone present it with the present form.
Finally I would also like to thank my parents and all my friends, who have given me innumerous encouragement and critical support in my study these years.
Abstract
F. Scott. Fitzgerald (1896-1940), as the most famous chronicler and laureate of the Jazz Age, is one of the most representative American novelist of the 1920s. He was not only a leading participant in the typically frivolous, carefree, moneymaking life of the decade but also a detached observer of it. Owing to its extraordinary literary merits, Fitzgerald’s Great Gatsby is listed among the most notable twentieth-century American novels.
This thesis analyzes the roots of the disillusionment of Gatsby’s dream from the social, historical and authorial perspectives. By exploring the origins and essential nature of Gatsby’s dream, the naivety and innocence in his personality and the cruelty of the Jazz Age society epitomized by the ruthless and immoral Buchanans, the paper draws the conclusion that a combination of these elements defines Gatsby’s failure and destruction
