Abstract

The great Gatsby lived in the period of the First World War, when people were suspicious about the traditional notions and intended to break out them. In the novel, Daisy is a woman who was born in a rich family, and she always lives a luxuriant life of the upper class. Obviously, the person who wants to get her love must have enough money to offer her a luxuriant life. In order to make his American Dream come true, which is to win Daisy, Gatsby tries every possible means including illegal trade of alcohol to make a fortune. However, when Gatsby helps Daisy to escape from the accident successfully, and mistakenly be murdered by the husband of Tom’s mistress, his American Dream is broken. There is nothing left to him after his death, his wealth no longer means anything, and Daisy does not come back to him, either.
This thesis based on an analysis of the break of Gatsby’s American Dream in the novel The Great Gatsby which was written by Fitzgerald and published in 1925. From the analysis, we can have a view about the relationship between love and money of the characters in the novel——love is closely connected with money. And then according to the status quo in reality, it draws a conclusion that there is a close relationship between love and money in reality. In sum, it is an analysis of the relationship between love and money in reality according to the break of Gatsby’s American Dream.

Key Words The American Dream; love; money; disillusionment


摘 要

了不起的盖茨比生活在一战期间,这时候人民对传统观念持怀疑态度并且在渐渐的打破这些观念,传统意义上的美国梦也被歪曲了。在小说中,戴西是个出身富裕家庭,从小过着舒适的生活的女人,要想获得她的爱情,就必须有足够的金钱为她提供一个美好的生活。为了实现自己的美国梦,赢得戴西,盖茨比通过各种手段赚钱,包括在禁酒期间非法运酒。但是,当盖茨比帮助戴西成功逃脱那场车祸,并被误认为是凶手被杀害的时候,他的美国梦破灭了。在他死后,没有任何东西是属于他的,他所有的财富对他来说已经没有任何意义,而戴西也没有回到他身边。从盖茨比美国梦的幻灭,可以得出一个结论,他们的爱情和金钱是密切联系着的。
这篇文章通过对菲次杰瑞德于1925年出版的小说《了不起的盖茨比》中盖茨比美国梦的幻灭的分析,对小说人物间的爱情和金钱的关系有了一个初步的认识——爱情和金钱是紧密联系的。本文结合小说和现实中存在的现状,得出在现实生活中,爱情和金钱是密不可分的结论。总的来说,文章是在对了不起的盖茨比美国梦的幻灭的分析的基础上,透视了现实中的爱情和金钱的关系。
