The whole burden of Gatsby is the loss of those illusions that give such
color to the world that you don’t care whether things are true or false
so long as they partake of the magical glory.
---- F.Scott Fitzgerald,1924

英文简介：
The Great Gatsby was published in 1922 by F. Scott Fitzgerald. At first glance, the novel appears to be a simple love story, but further examination reveals Fitzgerald's masterful scrutiny of American society during the 1920s and the corruption of the American dream.
F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby (1926) is, at first sight, a novel about love, idealism and disillusionment. However, it soon reveals its hidden depths and enigmas. What is the significance of the strange "waste land" between West Egg and New York, where Myrtle Wilson meets her death, an alien landscape presided over by the eyes of T J Eckleburg whose eyes, like God's, "see everything"? And what are we to make of the novel's unobtrusive symbolism (the green light, the colour of American dollar bills, which burns at the end of Daisy's dock, the references to the elements - land, sea and earth - over which Gatby claims mastery, the contrast between "East" and "West"), or its subtle use of the personalised first narrator, the unassuming Nick Carraway?
It is a novel which has intrigued and fascinated readers. Clearly, as a self-proclaimed "tale of the West", it is exploring questions about America and what it means to be American. In this sense Gatsby is perhaps that legendary opus, the "Great American Novel", following in the footsteps of works such as Moby Dick and Huckleberry Finn.
We will return to this aspect of the novel in more detail later on. However, we also need to be aware that it is a novel which has much to be say about more abstract questions to do with faith, belief and illusion. Although rooted in the "Jazz Age" which Fitzgerald is so often credited with naming, it is also a novel which should be considered alongside works like The Waste Land, exploring that "hollowness at the heart of things" which lies just below the surface of modern life.
Eliot himself remarked that the novel "interested and excited me more than any new novel I have seen, either English or American, for a number of years". Viewed from more distant perspectives it is possible to see Gatsby as an archetypally tragic figure, the epitome of idealism and innocence which strives for order, purpose and meaning in a chaotic and hostile world. In this sense Gatsby contains religious and metaphysical dimensions: the young man who shapes a "Platonic vision of himself" and who endows the worthless figure of Daisy with religious essence, eventually passes away into nothingness, with few at the funeral to lament the passing of his romantic dream.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born on September 24,1896,and named after his ancestor Francis Scott Key,the author of The Star-Spangled Banner.Fitzgerald was raised in St.Paul,Minnesota.Though an intelligent child,he did poorly in school and was sent to a New Jersey boarding school in 1911.Despite being a mediocre student there,he managed to enroll at Princeton in 1913.Academic troubles and apathy plagued him throughout his time at college,and he never graduated,instead enlisting in the army in 1917,as World War I neared its end.
Fitzgerald became a second lieutenant,and was stationed at Camp Sheridan,in Montgomery,Alabama.There he met and fell in love with a wild seventeen-year-old beauty named Zelda Sayre.Zelda finally agreed to marry him,but her overpowering desire for wealth,fun,and leisure led her to delay their wedding until he could prove a success.With the publication of This Side of Paradise in 1920,Fitzgerald became a literary sensation,earning enough money and fame to convince Zelda to marry him.
Many of these events from Fitzgerald’s early life appear in his most famous novel,The Great Gatsby,published in 1925.Like Fitzgerald,Nick Carraway is a thoughtful young man from Minnesota,educated at an Ivy League school (in Nick’s case,Yale),who moves to New York after the war.Also similar to Fitzgerald is Jay Gatsby,a sensitive young man who idolizes wealth and luxury and who falls in love with a beautiful young woman while stationed at a military camp in the South.
Having become a celebrity,Fitzgerald fell into a wild,reckless life-style of parties and decadence,while desperately trying to please Zelda by writing to earn money.Similarly,Gatsby amasses a great deal of wealth at a relatively young age,and devotes himself to acquiring possessions and throwing parties that he believes will enable him to win Daisy’s love.As the giddiness of the Roaring Twenties dissolved into the bleakness of the Great Depression,however,Zelda suffered a nervous breakdown and Fitzgerald battled alcoholism,which hampered his writing.He published Tender Is the Night in 1934,and sold short stories to The Saturday Evening Post to support his lavish lifestyle.In 1937,he left for Hollywood to write screenplays,and in 1940,while working on his novel The Love of the Last Tycoon,died of a heart attack at the age of forty-four.
Fitzgerald was the most famous chronicler of 1920s America,an era that he dubbed “the Jazz Age.” Written in 1925,The Great Gatsby is one of the greatest literary documents of this period,in which the American economy soared,bringing unprecedented levels of prosperity to the nation.Prohibition,the ban on the sale and consumption of alcohol mandated by the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution (1919),made millionaires out of bootleggers,and an underground culture of revelry sprang up.Sprawling private parties managed to elude police notice,and “speakeasies”—secret clubs that sold liquor—thrived.The chaos and violence of World War I left America in a state of shock,and the generation that fought the war turned to wild and extravagant living to compensate.The staid conservatism and timeworn values of the previous decade were turned on their ear,as money,opulence,and exuberance became the order of the day.
Like Nick in The Great Gatsby,Fitzgerald found this new lifestyle seductive and exciting,and,like Gatsby,he had always idolized the very rich.Now he found himself in an era in which unrestrained materialism set the tone of society,particularly in the large cities of the East.Even so,like Nick,Fitzgerald saw through the glitter of the Jazz Age to the moral emptiness and hypocrisy beneath,and part of him longed for this absent moral center.In many ways,The Great Gatsby represents Fitzgerald’s attempt to confront his conflicting feelings about the Jazz Age.Like Gatsby,Fitzgerald was driven by his love for a woman who symbolized everything he wanted,even as she led him toward everything he despised.
