shared by Connor P on 24 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • The American dream, like Gatsby's house in the end of the novel, is empty, or may never have existed.

    this shows the symbolism in which the American dream is corrupt through which gatsbys house is empty. it shows that the true american dream is not reachable

    "and similarly criticized the rich thugs with no values, tapped into cultural pessimism, and gave readers a glimpse into chaos. The Great Gatsby is the tale of the irresponsible rich"
  • Willie C on 25 Oct 11
     
    This quote shows that the overview look on The Great Gatsby is about the irresponsible rich, who do not take responsibility for their actions, because they believe their money excludes them from ethics.

    Pablo Escobar, like Gatsby, made his fortune illegally selling a controlled substance (Escobar controlled the cocaine cartels of Colombia). Demonstrates that businesses, similar in their unscrupulousness to Gatsby's business, are still viable more contemporarily than the 1920s.

    Women still are not equal, nor are low wage workers. There is still a large gap in society.

    Tells about how women's writing has been put down for ages. Much like how anything the low wage worker does gets knocked down, women are often left unappreciated and impoverished.

    Even though women were oppressed, they still preformed difficult tasks such as serving in the army. The workers also did all the hard jobs that no one else wanted to do, even though they were treated poorly.

    This source portrays Gatsby as an admirable man who did everything he could in pursuit of his American dream. While Nick Carraway despised "everything Gatsby stood for", he was really a man with a purpose and a desire for a better life.

    It doesn't let me copy or highlight because this is a PDF, but look towards page 11. This offers a view on the gender roles during the Great Gatsby

american dream

shared by Zaji Z on 25 Oct 11 - No Cached
  • "It does speak to contemporary America," says David Dowling, author of a students' guide, The Great Gatsby in the Classroom. "Especially that so-called American Dream, that stereotype that everyone can succeed if you try hard enough.
  • Zaji Z on 25 Oct 11
     
    Notice the diction the author uses: the American dream... stereotype. For ages it has been the hope for many and reality for some that people can live the American dream. Presidents have used it for slogans, it is a catchphrase that glistens in everyone's eye-- but now it is nothing but a stereotype, a goal not-so-true anymore.
