Gatsbys main problem

The Great Gatsby - undoubtedly a social affair, social book is determined by

the fact that it has a picture of the events and characters, and the main
conflict, which determines its action, have a direct and vital relation to the
fate of all people in society. These are disastrous for the person "stucked" in
the imposed false civilization in which happiness artificially equated with
material success and all the spiritual and moral incentives of human nature
are subject to the wealth of religion. The theme of "the American way of life"
as a trap snared person - for all the problems of modern American literature,
Fitzgerald suited primarily to the moral and aesthetic criteria.

But what's the Great Gatsby? What is the meaning of the title of the novel?
Apparently, the epithet relation to Gatsby has a double meaning in the book.
Tinsel Gatsby "great" in his role as a rich man with a mysterious reputation,
master absurdly lush festivities, which he arranges in the hope of attracting
the attention of Daisy - these traits Gatsby cause irony moralist-narrator. At
the same time, he for sure is great strength of his feelings, devotion dream,
"rare gift of hope." And from the moment when he discovers that Daisy, for
which he entered on this path, rejected him, he loses all interest in his wealth
and for everything connected with it, and actually "loses" his live even before
it catches up with a bullet of the killer. The novel can be seen as a
"Bildungsroman". If you take it in this sense, in the heart of the book will be
the narrator, Nick Carraway, a constant witness, commentator, and from time
to time and an active participant in the unfolding events.He acts like a main
character,even though main character is Gatsby.

He(Nick) goes out of this wise ,but sad experience, which is now left its mark
on his life. Summer - Fall 1922 rapprochement with Gatsby and participate in
the unfolding drama make it deep moral shift. Nick enters into the cycle of
events, even confident, that he is well versed in the "basic moral values."
Acquainted with Gatsby, he says, that he embodies everything that he, Nick
Carraway, "sincerely despised and despised." On the contrary, in Buchanan,
as in girlfriend Daisy, Jordan Baker, many close to him, like or, at least,
impressed. These likes and dislikes, inspired by his skills and the environment
are exposed to a strong test and unexpectedly fall for him..

"Gatsby paid it off ..." - thinks Carraway later, summing up what happened.
"Insignificance on nothingness, here they are ... you are one who is standing
all of them put together," - he cries, saying goodbye to Gatsby at his last
meeting with him. He blames Gatsby, but feels sorry for him, as a victim of
the immoral life of the order in which they are - Gatsby, Buchanan, Jordan
himself - voluntary or involuntary participants related mutual responsibility.
He blames Buchanan and blames them as active perpetrators of immoral
order of life. "They were careless creatures, Tom and Daisy, they break things
and people, and then run away and hide behind their money, its all-
consuming, or even something carelessness on what to their union is
standing ..." The shock experienced Carraway abandons the moral
compromises that he considered still acceptable for himself and "in the order
of things." He joylessly looks ahead, he does not see any salvation from the
ruling in the life of evil, and is committed to honestly tell you that he had
seen, not embellishing vice and paying tribute to the courage of the human
heart.

Gatsbys problem, is that he was unable to separate his ideal love from the
ideal of wealth, comes in the end to the moral and aesthetic surrender of a
person before the power of money. The lyrical prose Fitzgerald used in "The
Great Gatsby" at times approaching the lyrical verse saturation. Not only the
peace movement of the hero, but also every physical gesture gets intense
emotional response. This applies to the central action of the novel and the
parties to the characters of the second and third plan.

The tragedy of Gatsby that he is torn between two contradictory belief in

myth, along with the fact that the incompatibility of desire and becomes the
cause of death - wealth and happiness not identical, but pragmatism and
daydreaming of an American are indivisible.

The author brings us to an understanding of the tragedy of Gatsby as a

man, that he himself created, and relied only on themselve.Gatsby seem to
take into account everything. In an effort to meet the requirements of the
society, he surrounds himself with luxurious things, orders the clothes in
Europe, trying to look like an enlightened man, as evidenced by its excellent
library and reminders in the necessary context about Oxford.He lost his body
among wealth and ignorant people ,but kept his soul-soul of the Great
man.Great Gatsby.
