盖茨比的悲剧

时间:2016-04-03 13:31:45 | 作者:Jane

虽然盖茨比的聚会觥筹交错,歌舞升平,每个人都咧开了嘴角,但他们追求的并不是纯粹的快乐,而是虚荣地追求离他们很近但又很远的贵族生活,连空气中都飘荡着他们虚假空洞的笑声。没有人知道散席后盖茨比的寂寞,地上的果皮,倒在桌上的酒杯,杂乱的草坪,都在寂寞里咆哮。那整栋别墅的灯火辉煌,在盖茨比的眼中,却不及对面房子的一盏小小的绿灯。

盖茨比花了5年的时间,想用金钱挽回被金钱诱惑而离开的黛西。但他不知道,他们的爱情早就被现实摧残。他虔诚追求的爱情却被黛西当做满足自己虚荣心的游戏,在他听出她充满金钱的声音的时候,为时已晚。为什么那个金钱铸造的时代要留一个盖茨比这样专注于爱情的人?不然,他或许也不会落得如此结局。

尼克讲述的是几个人的故事,但映射的是整个社会,揭示的是人们向着利益与虚荣的心。只有真切的感觉,才会知道那彻骨的寒。而这个纷繁的世界,无时无刻不在喧嚣之中,逃避不了,只能给自己的心修一道围墙。但世界上又有多少人能不被浸染,有几人能做到淡泊名利,宁静致远。只是,在我们批判这个社会的时候,是否也应该反省自己是否做到了。

居住在别墅旁的作者,里金钱最近,但也最远,那是整本书里最温暖的光。

盖茨比是这个时代的牺牲品,始于梦想,也终于梦想,正如结尾说说:“于是我们奋力向前划,逆流而上的小舟,不停地倒退,进入过去。”

论现实主义之《了不起的盖茨比》

论现实主义之《了不起的盖茨比》 目睹世界,尽失初样,金迷纸醉,靡靡奢华。时光在这首主题曲中倒回20世纪20年代的纽约长岛,随着尼克的视角,我们目睹了一场名为“了不起的盖茨比”的梦之悲剧。 《了不起的盖茨比》是菲茨杰拉德的杰出作品,讲述了20世纪的美国社会,美国人民在物欲横流的社会中,在金钱至上的价值国度里,逐渐迷失里自我,失去了精神追求。以盖茨比为典型,最终梦想幻灭,其中,不无体现着现实主义特征。 从时代背景来看,当时美国在第一次世界大战中大发横财,经济发展迅速,出现了空前繁荣的局面,而小说正是以20年代这种繁荣的局面作为故事发生的环境背景。欢歌载舞,奢华狂欢,纸醉金迷,灯红酒绿,这是对美国当时“爵士乐时代”的准确刻画。就其故事取材上说,据说小说主人公盖茨比便是作者菲茨杰拉德,他们一样贫穷,一样经历过战争,一样是获得财富后才获得了爱情,因此,在情节安排上,感情流露上便多了几分真实。 对于人物形象的塑造,黛西是青春与财富的象征,是金钱的具体化。或许之前她是爱过盖茨比的,但嫁做人妇后,他生活在优裕的生活中,她与再见的盖茨比玩起感情游戏,尽管盖茨比说:“她的声音充满了金钱。”可他依然义无反顾的投入到与黛西的恋爱中,或许时过境迁,他并不是那么爱黛西了,他爱的是自己成功后可以追回逝去爱情的决心,他爱的是想要证明能力与金钱都拥有的自己。可是不管怎样,黛西都是必要的证明,于是他爱黛西胜过爱自己了。 可是黛西并不这么想,他想要两个男人的爱,这种虚荣导致他不能舍弃汤姆太太的称号,在车祸事件后,黛西和汤姆退缩到金钱或者麻木不仁或者不管什么使他们留在一起的东西了,让盖茨比以死亡为代价替他们收拾烂摊子。黛西的这种做法未免让我们有点心寒,但是我们没有权利去指责他。人性都是自私的,爱别人前首先要爱自己,黛西只不过是爱自己胜过了爱爱情。现在依旧也有很多女孩,宁可在宝马车里哭,也不愿在自行车上笑。这是一个现实而又势利、物质到骨子里的社会,拜金主义之风肆虐横行,吞噬着人内心中的温暖与道德。黛西如此,她懦弱自私,她贪慕虚荣,她附庸风雅;盖茨比是如此,他伪善,她为财富不择手段,为名声不断强调自己是牛津人,甚至像“杀过人”一样;汤姆亦是如此,他虚伪,他狡诈,他善于捏造与欺骗。可也因为这些,故事人物才有些有肉,有了真实而立体的生活百态,让人们感觉这些曾经真真切切的存在过。 特定环境下会有时代的人物来反映这个时代,而盖茨比就是20年代的写照。他是典型的美国青年,是千千万万个青年中最具代表性的一个,他迫切地想要实现自我与成功,而黛西则被他当做美好的化身,当成他的美国梦,可黛西的离开标志着盖茨比梦的终结,他经历了漫长的道路来到他的梦面前,可他不知道他的梦,早就被丢在过去,被混沌颓靡的金钱主义掩埋。盖茨比追求的毁灭也标志着千千万万人的梦想破灭,“美国梦”幻灭了,而这正是该小说最大的现实主义主题。 再次回顾小说,作者通过自身经历,用生活化的语言,描写了以盖茨比为典型的美国人从追梦到梦想幻灭,以黛西为典型的女孩的现实与物质化,反映了美国梦必然会破灭的的社会现实,严厉批判了爵士乐时代美国腐朽的资本主义意识形态,揭示了美国理想主义的悲剧。因此,《了不起的盖茨比》无论是从内容,还是本质都体现着现实主义的艺术特征,包括爱情。

盖茨比悲剧的必然性分析

盖茨比悲剧的必然性分析 摘要:《了不起的盖茨比》是菲茨杰拉德的代表作,也是20世纪美国最优秀的作品之一。小说描写了盖茨比追求梦想最终破灭,并被陷害死亡的故事,本文结合20世纪20年代的时代背景,分析美国梦的虚无和盖茨比悲剧的必然性。 关键词:盖茨比;悲剧;美国梦 弗朗西斯·司各特·菲茨杰拉德(1896—1940)是上世纪最杰出的美国作家之一。《了不起的盖茨比》是他的代表作,这部小说被公认为20世纪美国文学中最优秀的作品之一。小说生动的向读者讲述了主人公盖茨比为梦想而努力奋斗却被所有的人抛弃,最终被陷害至死的悲剧命运,揭示了爵士时代美国梦的幻灭,表现了盖茨比必然的悲剧结局。 一、盖茨比的追求与美国梦 盖茨比出自贫困家庭,在部队服役时认识并爱上了年轻美貌的富家小姐黛西,黛西也爱上了盖茨比,但是由于两人社会地位悬殊,她最后抛弃了盖茨比,嫁给了有金钱、有地位的富家子弟汤姆·布坎南,夫妻两人过着富有但空虚的生活。盖茨比认识到只要他有足够的金钱,他就能把黛西夺回来。为了获得金钱,夺回往日的恋人,盖茨比投靠百老汇的赌棍沃尔夫山姆,通过非法手段,贩卖私酒,大发横财,有了钱的盖茨比在黛西家对面买下了豪宅,挥金如土,每晚设宴款待四面八方的宾客,来吸引黛西的注意,希望有一天黛西会出现在他的晚会上。可是黛西却一直没有出现。夜晚,他望着海湾对面黛西家门前的一盏遥远的绿色的灯光,伸出手臂,试图拥抱那遥远的灯光。盖茨比如此执著于自己的梦想,在他身上,我们看到了在世世代代的美国人身上的那种对美国梦的执著精神。 美国梦作为一种精神伴随着美国这个国家的产生、发展和强大。在西进运动中,美国人正是依赖这种精神,通过自己的劳动和努力奋斗获得了想得到的一切,这一切给了美国人乐观、积极的精神,这种精神正是美国梦的精神。美国历史上的杰出人物富兰克林、林肯等更是将这种乐观的精神深深的植根于美国人民心中,那就是只要诚实,肯努力,有信心,人人都可以成功。这种精神激励着一代一代的美国人为梦想而奋斗,促使美国从独立逐渐走向强大,最终发展成为强大的工业国家,拥有了极大的物质财富。 二、盖茨比的悲剧命运 在《了不起的盖茨比》中,小说的叙述者尼克就住在盖茨比的豪宅旁边,他也是黛西的远房表兄。在迟迟等不到黛西出现后,盖茨比请求尼克安排他和黛西见一面,在见到自己梦中的情人时,盖茨比异常紧张,失去了常态,他不敢相信这个事实,不敢相信黛西真的会出现在他面前,因为黛西是他的梦想,只存在于他的想象中,这多年的梦想已经真实到超过了黛西本人。在他给黛西展示他各种各样的衬衣时,他无比骄傲。黛西似乎被他的金钱打动了,对盖茨比充满了爱慕之情,但是汤

了不起的盖茨比

《了不起的盖茨比》读后感 “我们继续奋力向前,逆水行舟,被不断地向后推,直至回到往昔岁月” 这是一本书上的一句话,《了不起的盖茨比》是美国作家弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德1925年所写的一部以20世 纪20年代的故事,菲茨杰拉德用了第一人称内聚焦的叙事方式,通过尼克的回忆来讲故事,他既是当局者,又是旁观者。作为当局者,他是盖茨比的邻居,是黛西的远房表哥,是汤姆的旧相识,他和乔丹交往,参加盖茨比的奢华派对,帮盖茨比搭起与黛西重聚的桥梁,他目睹汤姆与盖茨比之间的冲突,知道茉特尔出事的真相,他处理盖茨比的后事……作为旁观者,他从不识盖茨比到成为盖茨比的送殡人,这短短日子里的经历令他最终看透了他接触过的那些人,看清了他所生存的那个“黄金”年代的美国社会…… “所有的光新靓丽都敌不过时间,并且一去不复返。” 我是因为有这一部电影,我才去看一本书的。在我看这本书时,我所用的时间比以往看其他小说多三倍以上,原因是这本书将所有的事物都描写的十分细,就好像流水账一样,让人看着看着就会特别心烦。到了后部分,情节就会比之前有趣多了,但结局却描写的模凌两可,让我在这地方要深思很久。到了最后,我选择带着这个疑问重新再看一遍,这次用的时间比上次短多了,而且思路也变得十分清晰,然后也明白了村上春树那句话。 “如果让我“举出迄今为止遇到的最重要的三本书”,我会不假思索地回答,那就是菲茨杰拉德的《了不起的盖茨比》、陀思妥耶夫斯基的《卡拉马佐夫兄弟》和雷蒙德〃钱德勒的《漫长的告别》。倘若只让我从中挑选一本,那我会毫不犹豫地选择《了不起的盖茨比》。司各特〃菲茨杰拉德的文章具有独特的美感和韵律,会让人联想起优秀的音乐作品。他用这种节奏驾驭着文字,就像童话故事里魔法豆的枝蔓向天空伸展一般展开他的叙述。流利的语言接连诞生,不断成长,为寻求空间流畅地在空中移动,真是一幅美丽的景色。在这种时候,逻辑和统一性偶尔也会被逼到某个角落。语言被吸入空中,多样而暧昧,存在着各种暗示、各种可能。” 当然我没有村上春树这么好的阅读能力,所以我品味不了这么深层的含义。在每个时代里,现实都是我们生活的代言词,而书中盖茨比还在穷小孩与漂亮女孩黛西相爱,他们十分的爱

了不起的盖茨比 女性形象解读

解读《了不起的盖茨比》中的女性形象 朱碧荣201314703004 [摘要]作为爵士时代的代言人,菲茨杰拉德的小说《了不起的盖茨比》被公认为美国文学史上的经典之作,菲茨杰拉德在作品中描写了一个来自社会底层的青年人盖茨比的人生奋斗历程,同时作品也反映出在物质丰富和精神喧嚣的年代,在父权文化的压制下女性的生存空间依然狭窄,随着女权运动的兴起,在很多妇女恪守传统的同时新女性不断涌现它展现了一幅轻浮放浪、玩世不恭的女性群像。本文尝试从女性主义视角来分析解读《了不起的盖茨比》中的女性人物,并得出女性的自私、空虚、金钱至上等悲剧性格的根源在于物质至上主义的制度及作者的男权主义、厌女症和对新女性出现的恐惧。有助于女性反思自己的生存现状,追求经济和思想的独立,这也是小说了不起的盖茨比的现实意义所在。 [关键词]父权文化; 女权运动; 新女性; 独立 《了不起的盖茨比》在美国最优秀的100 部小说中排名第二,而小说的作者也被誉为桂冠诗人的称号在小说中,作者以主人公盖茨比的人生奋斗历程为线索,描写了其爱情梦和财富梦的破灭,反映了美国梦的虚幻性。《了不起的盖茨比》在今天仍然具有非常重要的现实意义,在物质高度发达的美国社会,人们的精神迷失和道德崩溃是人物悲剧命运的根源,在小说中作者还塑造了很多自私虚荣追求物质享乐的寄生虫样的女性形象,她们的命运也以悲剧收场,同时作者还塑造了一个具有独立精神的新女性乔丹·贝克,在作品中,乔丹与其他的女性形象形成鲜明对比因此本文将通过对作品中的女性形象分析,来说明父权文化下传统女性的悲剧命运,以及在这种压制下,新女性正逐渐崛起从女性主义解读这部小说将有助于妇女反抗父权文化的压迫,勇敢地面对生活的挑战,从而找到属于自己的幸福。 一父权文化下女性的悲惨命运 父权文化在人类社会中具有很长的历史,《圣经》可以说是这种两性关系失衡的根源众所周知,在《圣经》中夏娃是上帝用亚当的一根肋骨制成,这为男女关系的失衡奠定了基础。从此,男人在男女关系中拥有至高无上的地位,男人作为支配者决定了女人的命运和人生价值,而女人只是男人的附属品。《了不起的盖茨比》创作于20 世纪20 年代,这一时期的美国经历了一段经济的快速发展时期,人们的物质生活富足安逸但是女性的社会地位依然低下,她们仍然保持着传统父权社会中的男女两性的关系特征,整个社会对女性的歧视和压迫仍非常普遍。[1]从《了不起的盖茨比》中我们可以非常容易解读出父权文化对女性的压迫。 小说中的女主人公黛西出身于上流社会,她美丽单纯,在众多的追求者中选择了青年军官盖茨比。黛西厌恶上流社会的虚荣、欺骗和无情,她本以为善良诚实的盖茨比是她将来人生的依靠。可是事实上,盖茨比向黛西隐瞒了他的社会底层的出身,单纯的黛西不过是他跻身于上流社会的最好的捷径。当黛西与盖茨比谈婚论嫁时,盖茨比却因军队的调遣远赴国外。伤心的黛西在心灰意冷的情况下,被家人安排要嫁给上流社会的富家子弟汤姆,而盖茨比根本无力实现他答应给予黛西幸福的承诺,在婚礼当天还给黛西写了一封祝贺信。而此时的黛西还在伤心欲绝地等待着盖茨比。黛西虽然出身高贵,衣食无忧,但是在一个父权制社会中,她却无力选择自己的幸福,而黛西婚后的生活更加显示了父权文化对女性的压迫。 黛西在嫁给汤姆之后,不久就发现她的丈夫对婚姻不忠汤姆与酒店的服务员有染的事

论盖茨比悲剧的必然性

On Inevitability of Gatsby’s Tragedy I. Introduction Scott. Fitzgerald is a prominent novelist in the American literature, owned the title of the spokesman of the Jazz Age and the laurel of poet. From the contents and thoughts, the creative traits, his book the Great Gatsby is a real masterpiece of Fitzgerald, which made him get success in writing. As soon as it was published publicly in 1925, the Great Gatsby gained many critics’ affirmation and praise, becoming as one of the most excelle nt works in the 20th century. “The famous poet and critic Aerate said that the Great Gatsby took a great progress in American novels since Henry James.”(Donaldson, 1984: 283) In this novel, with a brief and serious style, the author vividly described a tragedy caused by American Dream, and successfully molded a suffered figure Gatsby. He was the author’s favorite character, in that they had many things in common such as many experiences and spiritual virtues that are different from the comprehension and chase to American life of common people. Gatsby owned marvelous genius, incomparable resolute romantic volition to his dream as well as his loyalty to his ideal, which won high praise of the author.

It has long history dating from the period of European emigrants exploiting the New Continent, and this dream owns tremendous enough connotations of American desire and hope to spirits and materials.

The Great Gatsby F.Scott.Fitzgerald . Character List Daisy Buchanan - Nick’s cousin, and the woman Gatsby loves. As a young woman in Louisville before the war, Daisy was courted by a number of officers, including Gatsby. She fell in love with Gatsby and promised to wait for him. However, Daisy harbors a deep need to be loved, and when a wealthy, powerful young man named Tom Buchanan asked her to marry him, Daisy decided not to wait for Gatsby after all. Now a beautiful socialite, Daisy lives with Tom across from Gatsby in the fashionable East Egg district of Long Island. She is sardonic and somewhat cynical, and behaves superficially to mask her pain at her husband’s constant infidelity. Daisy Buchanan (In-Depth Analysis) Tom Buchanan - Daisy’s immensely wealthy husband, once a member of Nick’s social club at Yale. Powerfully built and hailing from a socially solid old family, Tom is an arrogant, hypocritical bully. His social attitudes are laced with racism and sexism, and he never even considers trying to live up to the moral standard he demands from those around him. He has no moral qualms about his own extramarital affair with Myrtle, but when he begins to suspect Daisy and Gatsby of having an affair, he becomes outraged and forces a confrontation. Jordan Baker - Daisy’s friend, a woman with whom Nick becomes romantically involved during the course of the novel. A competitive golfer, Jordan represents one of the “new women” of the 1920s—cynical, boyish, and self-centered. Jordan is beautiful, but also dishonest: she cheated in order to win her first golf tournament and continually bends the truth. Myrtle Wilson - Tom’s lover, whose lifeless husband George owns a run-down garage in the valley of ashes. Myrtle herself possesses a fierce vitality and desperately looks for a way to improve her situation. Unfortunately for her, she chooses Tom, who treats her as a mere object of his desire. Analysis of Major Characters Daisy Buchanan Partially based on Fitzgerald’s wife, Zelda, Daisy is a beautiful young woman from Louisville, Kentucky. She is Nick’s cousin and the object of Gatsby’s love. As a young debutante in Louisville, Daisy was extremely popular among the military officers stationed near her home, including Jay Gatsby. Gatsby lied about his background to Daisy, claiming to be from a wealthy family in order to convince her that he was worthy of her. Eventually, Gatsby won Daisy’s heart, and they made love before Gatsby left to fight in the war. Daisy promised to wait for Gatsby, but in 1919 she chose instead to marry Tom Buchanan, a young man from a solid, aristocratic family who could promise her a wealthy lifestyle and who had the support of her parents. After 1919, Gatsby dedicated himself to winning Daisy back, making her the single goal of all of his dreams and the main motivation behind his acquisition of immense wealth through criminal activity. To Gatsby, Daisy represents the paragon of perfection—she has the aura of charm, wealth, sophistication, grace, and aristocracy that he longed for as a child in North Dakota and that first attracted him to her. In reality, however, Daisy falls far short of Gatsby’s ideals. She is beautiful and charming, but also fickle, shallow, bored, and sardonic. Nick characterizes her as a careless person who smashes things up and then retreats behind her money. Daisy proves her real nature when she chooses Tom over Gatsby in Chapter VII, then allows Gatsby to take the blame for killing Myrtle Wilson even though she herself was driving

简析《了不起的盖茨比》中盖茨比的悲剧成因【开题报告】

开题报告 英语 简析《了不起的盖茨比》中盖茨比的悲剧成因 一、论文选题的背景、意义(所选课题的历史背景、国内外研究现状和发展趋势) 一战结束后,美国在战争中不仅未伤筋骨,反而大发了一笔军火财。庞大的战时利润和充足的贸易机会使它很快进入了经济快速增长期,二十年代的美国出现了“飙升的年代”(The Roaring Times),经济空前繁荣。在这一时期上升到极端重要地位的新工业不仅推动了其它部门的经济繁荣,也构成了改变美国人民的生活习惯和价值观念的主要动力。这个时候的美国,空气里弥漫着欢歌与纵饮的气息,传统的清教徒道德已经土崩瓦解,清教主义和新教的价值观念和道德风尚受到了强烈的震撼,勤俭、节约、自控的价值标准面临奢华、享乐、放纵等观念的挑战,享乐主义开始大行其道。弗·斯格特·菲茨杰拉德最著名的小说《了不起的盖茨比》就设定在20世纪20年代的美国社会里。菲茨杰拉德将这一时期命名为“爵士时代”,是美国“历史上最会纵乐,最讲炫丽的年代”。 弗·斯格特·菲茨杰拉德是美国20世纪20年代文坛上杰出的小说家。素有“爵士时代”的代言人称号。“爵士时代”是指自一战结束至经济大萧条(1929)的一段时间,也就是20世纪20年代。用菲茨杰拉德自己的话来说,“这是一个奇迹的时代,一个艺术的时代,一个挥金如土的时代,也是一个充满嘲讽的时代。”《了不起的盖茨比》是美国现代小说的先驱之一。作为一部现代小说艺术的精品之作,《了不起的盖茨比》自出版以来一直受到读者与文学批评界的好评。著名诗人兼文学评论家T.S.艾略特(1945)称该小说为“美国小说自亨利·詹姆斯以来迈出的第一步”。菲茨杰拉德在小说《了不起的盖茨比》中谴责以汤姆为代表的美国特权阶级自私专横,为所欲为,以同情的态度描写了盖茨比的悲剧,并指出他的悲剧来自他对生活和爱情的幻想,对上层社会人物缺乏认识。小说通过主人公盖茨比的悲剧,对照其生前的奢侈享乐及死后的凄惨悲凉,深刻揭示了那个时代盛极一时的奢靡与不可避免的没落。 对于这部作品,国内外评论也非常多。有从女性形象分析,反应作者本人对美国20世纪20年代妇女及美国社会精神价值的严肃思考。通过对黛西、乔丹、茱特尔三位女性性格、金钱观、爱情的描写,菲茨杰拉德成功刻画了那个时代美国社会中典型的女性形象,其外表虽然绚丽,但其本质是浅薄空虚的。揭示了建立在这种物质基础之上的美国梦的必然结果就是因其缺乏道德精神实质而灭亡。有分析作品中的“二元主角”现象,

英语论文 杰伊·盖茨比的悲惨命运的必然性

杰伊·盖茨比的悲惨命运的必然性 摘要:《了不起的盖茨比》是20世纪美国著名作家菲茨杰拉德的一部反映美国梦破灭的浪漫主义悲剧小说。追寻浪漫爱情的盖茨比与初恋情人黛西分别多年后终于得以重逢, 梦想着再续前缘。然而,冰冷的现实容不下缥缈的梦,盖茨比心中的女神已蜕变成庸俗的物质女郎。浪漫的爱情掺杂了拜金主义的气息,追梦的灵魂就逃脱不了注定的悲剧情缘。最终, 一厢情愿的浪漫归为幻灭,富于想象的爱情也化为尘埃。盖茨比爱情梦的破灭标志着“美国梦”的破灭。盖茨比一方面如此天真,相信过去的日子能够复返;另一方面却已屈服于金钱脚下,走向堕落的深渊。希望落空,失望和厄运相继开始。盖茨比悲剧的必然性主要是由其性格中的不足因素,他对黛西的错误想象以及社会历史原因等多方面因素造成的。本文通过对这些因素的分析揭示盖茨比悲惨命运的必然性。 关键词: 盖茨比;美国梦;悲剧
