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。
