Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Cruise of the Rolling Junk” remains a critically neglected text. This article proposes that one reason for this neglect is that the work has yet to be placed into any greater critical context. It remedies this problem by analyzing the essay in the context of the American road narrative. Specifically, the reading places Fitzgerald’s work within its own historical moment by recognizing how it both distances itself from and yet is complicit in the romantic idea of travel as expressed by the twentieth-century travel orator Burton Holmes. Through a close reading of the text, the article argues that while Fitzgerald attempts to break from the overly picturesque view of travel and adventure that colored much early travel and road literature in an effort to highlight the sense of identity loss (in terms of self and world), he is, in the end, unsuccessful in fully accomplishing his own narrative goal. However, in his attempt, Fitzgerald does place himself within the greater conversation of the American road narrative and helps to complicate traditional theories of American road literature.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"16 1","pages":"1 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45535800","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’s life depends on many human-centered, selfish endeavors, from his inspiration via Dan Cody’s mining practices and his involvement in intense deforestation during World War I to his bootlegging enterprise dependent on South American agriculture and the rise of the automobile, all the while ignoring the waste of the valley of ashes in favor of a consumer-culture lifestyle that feeds the socioeconomic disparity and wealth gap that began in America in the 1920s. While Gatsby’s life and transformation depend on these practices, each one is in some part responsible for Earth’s current ecological crisis. This article uses ecological philosophy to argue further that by going too far forward in time to reclaim what he had lost, Gatsby is also representative of humanity’s eventual quest for a previously inhabitable Earth after each of these selfish ventures wreak havoc on the planet’s environment. After the planet has become inhospitable due to extreme climate change, human beings will seek to return to a more environmentally welcoming planet; however, we will be unable to do so. In so doing, we may be destroyed by our own selfish endeavors, unable to repeat the past; and eventually, much like Gatsby, there will be no one to attend our funeral after we have been destroyed by our own valleys of ash.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"16 1","pages":"174 - 188"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45781870","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}

“Little Girl Bay,” Frontier, and Folklore: Fitzgerald’s Use of Regional History in The Great Gatsby “小女孩湾”、边疆与民俗：菲茨杰拉德在《了不起的盖茨比》中对地区历史的运用

Scott Fitzgerald made deliberate, artistic choices in depicting the Midwest. In The Great Gatsby, he chose “Little Girl Bay” as the setting for James Gatz’s transformation into Jay Gatsby on the shores of Lake Superior. Fitzgerald’s setting is based on Little Girl’s Point on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Historic information about this frontier setting illuminates Gatz’s transformation and grounds his traits in regional history. This article explores the setting’s proximity to logging and mining camps, infamous turn-of-the-twentieth-century Hurley, Wisconsin, saloons and brothels, and the confluence of immigrant newcomers and indigenous people. It places significant focus on Henry R. Schoolcraft’s Ojibwe folktale “Leelinau, or The Lost Daughter” as the basis for the name of Little Girl’s Point as handed down by Schoolcraft’s wife, Bamewawagezhikaquay (Jane J. Schoolcraft). The tale, which parallels motifs in The Great Gatsby, tells of a young maiden who runs off with her fairy lover. At night her moonlit figure is seen on the shore by fishermen across the waters. When they approach, she flees, sheltered by her lover’s green plumes.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"16 1","pages":"109 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41593020","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’s The Great Gatsby and Iven Kruse’s The Third Bismarck offer fruitful material for a transnational study of the impact of World War I on fiction in the postwar period as well as of the mood and the temper of the times in Germany and the United States. Both novels were published in 1925 and both describe the lives of veterans as they try to adjust to living in peace-time. In terms of the genesis of each novel, it is the intense encounter of both authors with Oswald Spengler’s The Decline of the West that pervades and colors their work, leading Kruse to reject Spengler’s teachings, in his novel as well as in newspaper articles, and Fitzgerald to embrace Spengler’s views both in his novel and his personal convictions as expressed in interviews and correspondence. As much as the two novels themselves, their compositional histories thus afford an opportunity to probe and assess postwar intellectual trends in each country as well as providing documented case studies of the reception of Spengler’s epoch-making work on both sides of the Atlantic.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"16 1","pages":"127 - 159"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48175591","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’s relationship to his Irish roots and the role that his “Irishness” plays in his writing. This article explores how the “Celtic Element” in literature, popularized by writers like Matthew Arnold and W. B. Yeats in the mid-to-late nineteenth century, influenced Fitzgerald’s response to the crisis of modernity. By examining Fitzgerald’s artistic and aesthetic relationship to his Irish heritage—tied to the debate between Arnold and Yeats on the characteristics and value of Celtic Literature—and by drawing textual comparisons between the work of Yeats and Fitzgerald, this article shows how, like Yeats, Fitzgerald employs the use of tragic heroes to promote premodern characteristics as a response to the materialism he saw tainting modern American society. Examining specifically Yeats’s On Baile’s Strand in relation to Tender Is the Night and The Love of the Last Tycoon, this article argues that Fitzgerald employs the same type of “romantic nationalism” as the great Irish poet and dramatist. Both authors’ protagonists represent ancestral ideals and values that have been lost to the rise of modernity.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"16 1","pages":"60 - 83"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44720438","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}

This methodology enables one to go beyond the fuzzy descriptors—such as \"brilliant,\" \"clear,\" \"vital,\" \"lucid,\" \"fluent,\" \"natural,\" \"fine,\" and \"rich\"—often applied to Fitzgerald's writing. The article eschews the impressionistic in favor of a more \"scientific\" approach to that prose: through the exegetical microscope of the rhetorical lexicon, it demonstrates the surprising subtleties of Fitzgerald's linguistic craftsmanship. Without claiming that Fitzgerald was steeped in the terminology of classical rhetoric, it proposes that he at least had an intuitive understanding of the syllabic, lexical, aural, descriptive, metaphorical, syntactical, argumentative, grammatical, verisimilous, emotional, psychological, and even the comedic and satirical strategies and maneuvers that the terms describe and for which the ancient Greeks and Romans provided names and categories. The article concludes with a number of observations about Fitzgerald's careful and conscientious craftsmanship: some buttress widely accepted pronouncements about his prose style, techniques, and philosophy of composition; others, one hopes, are new insights that may surprise even Fitzgerald's most enthusiastic champions and be embraced by them.","PeriodicalId":40217,"journal":{"name":"F Scott Fitzgerald Review","volume":"15 1","pages":"149 - 199"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47875512","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}
