1、《了不起的蓋茨比》中所折射出的美國夢摘要《了不起的蓋茨比》是菲茨杰拉德的一部名著。作者通過描寫蓋茨比個人的困境與失敗展現(xiàn)了那個時代的悲劇。在小說中，蓋茨比想要通過物質(zhì)上的成功來贏得愛情,然而，他的夢想是建立于幻想，而不是現(xiàn)實，這是注定要失敗的。因為蓋茨比是美國夢的代表，從某種意義上說,蓋茨比的失敗也預(yù)示了美國夢本身的破滅。本論文首先介紹了作者與小說的主要情節(jié)，接著講述了美國夢的根源與本質(zhì)。第三部分分析了蓋茨比對財富夢及愛情夢的追求。最后分析了蓋茨比美國夢破碎的原因以及必然性。關(guān)鍵詞：美國夢；金錢；愛情；破滅AbstractTheGreatGatsbyisoneofFitzge
