Abstract
As the representative of famous American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby vividly depicts American society in the early 20th century, reveals people’s spiritual disorientation and moral bankruptcy, and expresses the author’s disappointment to the disillusionment of one generation’s moral ideal. The novel also shows the disillusion of “American Dream” in the 1920s. In the American society of 1920s, the people were in total depravity. It tells us that there is no way to go from money to love, from material to spirit. The thesis attempts to explore the moral spirit and bankruptcy in The Great Gatsby to study the moral spirit at that time. In the meantime, China is now in a period of social transition, and many people are confronted with the dilemma of material abundance, spiritual emptiness and moral disorientation; therefore, the study of the thesis provides certain reference concerning how to deal with the relationship between material and spirit for them to some extent.
