Abstract

Fitzgerald is the spokesman of the American “Jazz Age”. In his masterpiece “the great Gatsby”, he describes the disillusionment of Gatsby’s “American dream”. He used the tragic life of the heroine Gatsby to reveals the inexorable law of American dream’s burst.
In Introduction, the thesis briefly introduces Fitzgerald's life, works and the social, historical context in which The Great Gatsby was created. The second chapter has reviewed the domestic and foreign literature. In the Third Chapter the meaning of the “American Dream” is defined in detail. Chapter four expounds on the withering of the American dream through the analysis of the characterization of the protagonist--Gatsby, Meyer Wolfsheim, Daisy Fay and Tom Buchanan. In conclusion, the thesis argues that The Great Gatsby is about the predicament of human beings in general, thus it is necessary for man to figure out ways to minimize the contradictions between man's social development and the world of nature, materialistic abundance and spiritual pursuit, idealism and reality.

Key words: F.S. Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, the American Dream, Breaking
