The Great Gatsby Book Report

At the onset of this book, the reader is introduced to the narrator, Nick Carraway, who relates the past happenings that construct the story of Jay Gatsby and Nick during the summer of 1922. After fighting in World War I, or the Great War as Nick called it, Nick left his prominent family in the West of America for the North where he intended to learn the bond business. Nick was originally supposed to share a house in West Egg near New York City with an associate of his, but the man backed out and so Nick lived with only a Finnish cook. Right next door, Gatsby lived in a glorious mansion with expansive gardens and a marble swimming pool, among other luxuries. Yet Nick did not even hear about Gatsby until he went to visit his

The midwest is known for down-to-earth goodness, for wholesome, satisfying conceptions of morality that satisfied the masses of people who immigrated there in the 19th and 20th centuries. Morality, in that conventional, midwestern way, is merely a set of rules governing the difference between right and wrong - a simple duality. Dualistic thought suffices for us most because it is simple and it makes sense - actions are either right or wrong, people are either good or bad. The reason duality has human appeal is because it allows us to think of our lives without much complexity, without much potential for fearful or overwhelming existential thought. Most people in the world follow Judeo-Christian forms of religions because those religions establish conceptions of morality that present simple dualities. Actions are either moral or immoral; there is god, and there is the devil; there is heaven, and there is hell. Midwestern ethics derive directly from these modes of thought, and therefore Nick Carraway’s ethics also derive from those modes of thought. However, Nick, like so many others returning from World War One, is forced to question his existence in a way that is deeply unsettling, in a way that forces him to, if only for a summer, abandon the dualism associated with conventional midwestern thought. Ultimately, Nick becomes morally ambiguous not because his ‘moral’ decisions

The 1920s, also known as the Jazz Age, was a period in history with many crucial developments, these of course came along with some difficulties. The 1920s was given its nickname because of the explosion of Jazz music and dance that emerged during the decade. The 1920s included some of the most significant events in history, including the revival of the Ku Klux Klan, the Great Migration, the Harlem Renaissance, as well as the appearance of flappers. From the Jazz Age emerged many political and cultural conflicts, as well as economic developments that led to the Great Depression

F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote The Great Gatsby with a certain intent, and that was to create a parallel between his life and the story. Scott was named after an ancestor, Francis Scott Key. Throughout Scott’s childhood he was very spoiled and was not very good at either his schoolwork or sports, yet he was successful in writing stories and plays. In 1913, Scott went on to college at Princeton University, but soon to leave to go to officer's training school in 1917 once World War one started so that he could be a hero on the battlefields of France. To his dismay, he was never sent overseas; which in turn gave him the opportunity to work on his novel, The Romantic Egoist, sadly to be turned down by Scribner’s publishing company twice. While he was

The Great Gatsby is a wonderful, beautiful and moving novel and piece of literature that was published early in the month of April 1925. The Great Gatsby tackles so many issues that people can relate to now in the 21st century, for example the novel works in the ideas of social classes and other things and expressions such as the "American Dream" , wealth, and looking at things in a very materialistic way. The Great Gatsby is a timeless novel that everyone should read at some point in their life. This classic novel shows problems we as the American people can relate too, and that is why people nowadays should read the "Great Gatsby".

During the Roaring twenties, social class was an important aspect of society. All different classes were for the most part separated by where people lived. In other words, by no means would anyone from a lower class be caught in an uptown setting. There are a variety of characters in the novel that come from different economic backgrounds. In the novel, The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald successfully uses location to differentiate social status amongst his characters while the weather and seasons of those locations help guide them.   Each character helps represent and support the differences of social class and the four main locations, The East Egg, the West Egg, the Valley of Ashes, and New York City.

To begin, ensure your subject is positioned in front of a light absorbing velvet, the darker the velvet, the better. The velvet helps to create a black background for your photo shoot. In supporting the velvet, you can use almost anything to

See what the camera sees, which is everything that is in the frame. Some cameras have the feature of switching to the black and white mode before the picture is taken. This is good because you can see what you are going to get. Learn to pay attention to what the viewfinder is indicating to you about light. It will also guide you as to whether you or the subject needs to move in order to make the most of the shot.

Lighting is also extremely significant. It is better to take your pictures outside, but if you cannot take a picture outdoors and have to take it inside, then make sure you find a good area in the building that has pleasant lighting. I recommend if it is light out, to take a picture near the window with the light coming through. Make sure it isn't giving off too much sunlight that will make you look white and pale, but make sure it gives you natural lighting. Natural light is the best.

You should avoid blazing sunshine at noon because it would make your photos become too shine. When taking photo outside, if the angle of sight is against the sunlight, you can use the flash. You also can use a dedicated light to light up some dark area caused by sunlight such as: eye socket, neck, and so on. Do not let the light from the back get all the attention of the main character. When talking photograph at night, pay attention to the distance between the flash and the subject. If it is too dark, use more lights.

As you may know fashion designers create anything that is part of a garment for men, women, and children. They understand the needs of their clients and create attractive, functional garments and accessories. When designing they must keep a close watch on fit, style, color, texture, size, and material. Designing any outfit starts with sketching and original idea on paper or on computer programs. Then shaping the patterns pieces which make the garment. The pieces are then drawn in actual size on paper and cut out on a rough material. These pieces are

Finally, you should play with proportions. If you are wearing high-waist pants, then pair it with a cropped top. If you have a sleek dress, then pair it with a big flurry duster coat. Opt for furry boots and tight jeans and so on. There are plenty of fun ways you can play with the proportions and add a bit of edge to your look – you don’t need to ensure everything always follows the same pattern and design. Sometimes big and small or patterned and non-patterned items make the best partners.
