At its best, Zelda's intensity toward her lessons and the art form is acknowledged as a fierce determination to express herself; at its worst, it is regarded as obsession and a fast track toward mental deterioration. Her devotion to ballet is often examined from the angle of her homelife and her familial obligations, and a significant misconception is that she became destructively isolated during this period. The culture of the dance studio, the structured environment of her daily ballet classes, and the relationships she developed—including her devotion to her teacher Lubov Egorova—grant an alternative perspective and understanding of her deeply passionate pursuit. It is alongside the star dancers of the 1920s that Zelda trained, and she was swept into the new wave of ballet with daring and spectacular works by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes alongside the reinvigoration of the Paris Opera Ballet. These experiences, and the sensation of her body in poetic movement, remained with Zelda well after she physically put ballet behind her and focused on her many other passions.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"18 1","pages":"104 - 88"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47271408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scott Fitzgerald read Edgar Allan Poe's little-known tale \"The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether\" (1845), his posthumously published story \"Nightmare (Fantasy in Black)\" offers riveting textual opportunities to read it as a development of Poe's concern for the lunatic, uncontrolled forces within and without the individual that threaten selfhood. Released in 2017 as part of a \"lost stories\" collection, \"Nightmare\" has received little critical attention. It provided some material for Tender Is the Night, but reading it as part of an ominous conversation with Poe positions it as an example of Fitzgerald's darker vision of American ambition: how it cannibalizes the self. This article explores what J. Gerald Kennedy calls the \"imaginative genealogy\" between both writers, first by contextualizing the composition of their respective stories against the backdrop of personal adversity, professional instability, and an American ethos, and then, by comparing key scenes and characters in the texts themselves. \"Nightmare\" and \"Tarr and Fether\" play with the proverbial understanding of reason and madness finally to suggest that, as Fitzgerald's subtitle implies, there is a \"Fantasy\" on the other side of the \"Nightmare.\"","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"18 1","pages":"143 - 163"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44117426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Painting the Pictures: Façades and the Failure to Belong in F. Scott Fitzgerald's Pat Hobby Stories 绘画:f·斯科特·菲茨杰拉德的《帕特·爱好的故事》中的堕落与归属感的缺失

Both characters find themselves obsessed with inclusion in groups in which they are not welcome. Gatsby, belonging to the world of new money, is enamored with joining the world of old wealth. Pat Hobby is a has-been; he once thrived in the world of silent film, but failed to transition to the \"talkies.\" Both men exist at the edge of a society that considers them outsiders. When presented with the failure to assimilate and be accepted, each engages in creating a façade that he feels can infiltrate his desired sphere. Gatsby hides behind the mystery of his wealth and the sumptuous parties he hosts. Similarly, Hobby can be considered a chameleon; he adapts his personality and purported skills to match any situation with which he is presented. As with Gatsby, however, his façade is compromised both by inner and outer conflicts, ultimately dramatizing Fitzgerald's belief that our identities are not ours to invent. This article also aims to bring more critical attention to the Hobby stories; often ignored, these tales, when read with sympathy for the much-disparaged protagonist, show Fitzgerald's creative and structural genius. In placing these stories in dialogue with Fitzgerald's magnum opus, the comparisons elevate these later efforts by showing that they share with The Great Gatsby an exploration of self-hood and performativity.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"18 1","pages":"181 - 203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48506528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gatsby can be made relatable to all students, especially students who are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC) through various pedagogies: immersive history, Socratic discussions, debates, and other engaging activities. In a world of smartphones and mass media, embracing students' predilections for screen time through film with Baz Luhrmann's 2013 adaptation is also a beneficial approach. Taking a racial justice approach to the novel will also help create a classroom space for students of varying racial, ethnic, and social backgrounds to discuss current events related to the murder of George Floyd, the protests and rebellion across the United States, and the Black Lives Matter movement. Jay Gatsby mirrors the lives of many teenagers who navigate a society that attempts to put them in their place based on their racial/ethnic backgrounds. As the rift between the \"inside\" society of white privilege and financial stability and the \"outside\" world of diverse, working-class Americans widens, The Great Gatsby should remain a staple text of American classrooms.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"18 1","pages":"231 - 245"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48477061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scott Fitzgerald describes Myrtle Wilson in The Great Gatsby as a consumer of a gossip magazine called \"Town Tattle,\" he was making a thinly veiled reference to a real magazine called Town Topics. Perhaps the most infamous scandal sheet in the history of American periodicals, this forerunner of contemporary tabloids ran for nearly fifty years (1879–1937). Especially under the 1891–1920 editorship of its colorful owner, Colonel William d'Alton Mann, Town Topics blackmailed members of the Four Hundred, the wealthiest of American families, to keep embarrassing insinuations about sexual identity, adultery, parentage, and abortion (among other \"unmentionable\" aspects of social life) off of its pages. In 1905, the magazine's modus operandi became a national sensation when Emily Post's husband, Edwin, refused an extortion demand, resulting in a headline-grabbing court case. Mann also founded The Smart Set, the magazine that eventually, after the Colonel sold it off, published Fitzgerald's earliest stories. Fitzgerald himself made fourteen appearances in Town Topics between 1916 and 1923, the most significant of which involve the celebrity that he and his wife, Zelda Sayre, acquired amid the success of This Side of Paradise in 1920. These references, along with the history of Town Topics, expand our understanding of the significance of \"Town Tattle\" in Gatsby, revealing that Mann's notorious publication was not just a \"New York gossip magazine,\" as critics have suggested, but one with national reach, whose propensity for travestying its subjects provided an agency essential to self-making in the social economy of a rapidly transforming United States and renders its appearance in The Great Gatsby far more meaningful than scholars have yet appreciated.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"18 1","pages":"1 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45187267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
