Weather is a symbol that is in many pieces fro all different genres whith different symbolic menings. The symbolism that f. Asott Fitzgerold was udsed in the novel The great gastby describes change in everything. There are 4 seasn with each unique weather that symbolizes time and the societys change. Weather in The Great Gatsby symbolizes everything and evryonee. Fitzgerad uses the

Weather is very important in literature, not only does it help to set the mood, but it can also help reveal a character’s mood. When a character is happy, the sun might be shining and the birds might be chirping, or the opposite, if a character is sad then it might be raining or gloomy out. For example, in the “Great Gatsby” when Daisy firsts comes over to Nicks house unaware that Gatsby is there, it’s raining outside. The rain could represent Gatsby’s nervousness to see Daisy after so many years, and when the two finally do reunite, the rain continues. The rain could also symbolize the awkwardness between the two after meeting again for so long. When Nick returns, the rain stopped and the sun is shining, and we find that Daisy and Gatsby are

Throughout the Novel, The Great Gatsby the weather seems to be seems to be symbolizing the characters, the way they’re acting or based on their feelings. The weather is supposed to naturally be warm, rainy, cloudy, just the usual but is it a coincidence or is it based/symbolizing what is happening in the book? This is just what I think, the weather is an important symbolic thing in this book that not one person should overlook. If the reader is really into the book and pays attention to everything that is happening, then they’ll see it exactly how I do.

Rain, heat, fog, the weather had an immense role in both the setting and symbolically. Like Thomas Foster stated, “weather is never just weather. It’s never just rain. And that goes for snow, sun, warmth, cold, and probably sleet.”(Fos) Weather in The Great Gatsby is enriched with meaning and impact to the novel and one example being when Gatsby and Daisy met again after five years. The morning before Gatsby and Daisy were going to meet, after Nick secretly arranged for Daisy to have tea with Gatsby in his house, Gatsby send for Nick’s lawn to be mowed and for a “greenhouse” to be set up in his Nick's house. At “two minutes for four”(Fit) Daisy arrived and it was raining and before Daisy entered the house Gatsby went out through the back

Scott Fitzgerald because when Gatsby and Daisy aren’t together the rain starts instantly. As Daisy is on her way to Nick’s house, it is pouring rain because Gatsby is nervously waiting for her. “The day agreed on pouring rain”(Fitzgerald 78). The time it had rained the most was the unfortunate death of Gatsby, when at his funeral Daisy was unable to make it. During the funeral it poured rain because of Daisy and Gatsby not being together. The mood of the funeral was presented in the symbolically dark, gloomy and rainy weather. Therefore the rain symbolically washing away Gatsby’s sins away. When Nick left he said “when I left his office the sky had turned dark and I got back to West Egg in a drizzle” (Fitzgerald 172). The rain creates an effect during Gatsby’ funeral. No one showed up to his funeral besides Owl Eyes which is why Gatsby’s funeral was a gloomy rainy day. Rain and sun show the emotions of Gatsby and Daisy have for each other, but also the seasons play a big

The rain portrays Gatsby’s nervousness, apprehension, and self-consciousness. The irresolutions from the past overwhelm Gatsby. In fact, he even knocks over Nick’s clock, symbolizing his attempt to stop time. Fitzgerald incorporated the weather to embellish the mood and symbolize problems and irresolutions within relationships. Another example of weather is the sun.

In the novel “The Great Gatsby”, F. Scott Fitzgerald demonstrates many themes, one is that relationships have their ups and downs and are always changing. This theme is represented in the novel by different reoccurring motifs. The motif that best describes the theme of changing relationship statutes would be weather. Weather in The Great Gatsby shows how the emotions change with each scene in the book. For example, when the sun comes out on a rainy day when Jay and Daisy meet again, also when things get heated between Tom and Gatsby when they go into town for the evening. And you can also recognize this motif throughout the whole book as the seasons change and Daisy’s and Gatsby’s relationship rises and falls.

Fitzgerald used the weather as his tool control the tone of the book in order to influence the imagery of his novel, it was located in passages of chapter five that he showcased the tone of novel when describing the how weather changed. As a result of the weather changing, there was also a change of mood in the novel, which led to the rekindling of Daisy and Gatsby's relationship, and the beginning of conflict between old money and new money. It is almost as if the weather plays the deity role in, the Great Gatsby, because it is so influential, that is Fitzgerald used it as his tool so

The classic saying goes, “April showers bring May flowers.” This short phrase encompasses the archetypal idea of struggle and rebirth that leads to joy and purity. Weather, in this expression, conveys deeper emotions that stem from the perception of climate in April and May. In a like manner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, in his novel The Great Gatsby, uses weather to convey the sentiments and moods of various characters and scenes. The book is narrated by Nick Carraway, a man from an aristocratic family in the midwest who moved to New York, where the novel takes place.

In reality the weather and environment play a part in how people interact with one another and in some cases it can even influence a person's mood. Therefore, weather also plays a similar role in literature as it does in reality. The only difference is that in literature the significance of weather impacts the story more and has much sub-contextual meaning than what is just portrayed on the surface level. Within different stories different types of weather can symbolize different things. In the novel, The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Fitzgerald uses fog to serve as a symbol for Gatsby’s and Daisy’s relationship. His choice for using fog as a symbol of their relationship is because it obscures Gatsby’s vision of the green light on Daisy’s house which, for Gatsby, it acts as a beacon letting him know where Daisy is. Also, it acts as a method of foreshadowment.

A Quest consists of five elements: 1. a quester, so to speak, or the person who is on a quest. 2. a place to go. 3. a stated reason to actually go there. 4. challenges and trials on the way. 5. a real reason to go there.

The Five aspects of the QUEST are a questor, a place to go, a stated reason to go there, challenges and trials en route, and a real reason to go there. A questor is basically a character that is on a quest. The questor obviously needs a place to go and a reason to go to be persuaded to go on the quest. The challenges and trials en route will challenge his dedication and perseverance. In the end, the real reason is always the same, and the questor may not even realize what it is until their quest is over.

When it starts snowing, it is a sign of a strong and pure relationship. When the snow melts and is becoming dirty, it symbolizes the problems the couple are having. “...Where it was getting dark. But it was getting dark on the inside too.” (3)This quote also symbolizes the struggles of the couple and how what once was a healthy relationship became dark and is fading

The rain comes down heavily but eventually the sun comes out and the rain stops when Gatsby and Daisy become reacquainted with one another, therefore the rain could symbolise Gatsby’s mood, as he is nervous to see Daisy again. Luhrmann makes use of the heavy rain and cloudy weather to indicate the mood of the characters and their feelings towards situations. The appearance of water in both movies however, is different. In the Great Gatsby, Luhrman uses water in conjunction with weather, specifically bad weather. The weather in Great Gatsby has an active role in letting the audience know when something of significance is occurring it usually brings a sense of foreboding and acts as a foreshadower. The role of water in this scene is to represent new beginnings and a clean slate. (340
