: : : I have a paper to write on the great gatsby and the american dream...i was wondering if i could get some information on it...thanks a lot : This is a reply to your plea!! I am too writing a paper and here is a my introduction to my essay. Since my prompt is how Fitzgerald uses literary techniques to develope the theme of achieving the American dream it is a little different but here goes. : The theme of the F.Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is that wealth and greed of those : who do not posses integrity and strong morals interily contradicts the honorable and : admirable means of attaining the “American Dream”. Can each of us achieve our own : "American dream" while recognizing needs of other individuals, society, and future : generations? : The American dream, much like it is today, consisted : of four parts : *America is the New Eden : *Optimism is in the future : *Believe in your importance : *Triumph of the individual : For a long-time American residents, as well as American newcomers, a common bond : exists: belief in the American Dream. Core to the dream is the belief that anyone in : America, with enough hard work and ingenuity, can make something of himself and : become rich. : Because the American Dream has been true for enough people, it still holds appeal for : others : : Achieveing the American Dream is what all people strive to accomplish. To attain this : dream is based on personal preference, but most seem to want happiness and success is : whatever they do. They work hard and struggle to reach that goal, like our forefathers did : back when this nation was still young. The purity and innocence of the American Dream : has become corrpted and poisioned with greed and the neccesity for wealth. Morals and : values have been pushed aside all in efforts to reach the so called American Dream. This : new American Dream is just a fraud keeping those who desire only riches in it’s grasp : and allowing those who know and understand the true connotation of the American : Dream to p. : these don't make sense now but I hope it helps!!
