In The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Fitzgerald uses a multitude of themes throughout his fantasy novel. At the very beginning of The Great Gatsby, we are first introduced to the narrator and main character around whom most of the book is centered, known as Nick Carraway. As Fitzgerald began to characterize Nick, he decided to use the first few pages of the chapter to tell Nick's in-depth story: "I enjoyed the counter-raid so much that I came away restless. Instead of being the warm center of the world, the Middle West now seemed to be the jagged edge of the universe – so I decided to go East and learn the bond business. » (3). Fitzgerald used not just a small paragraph of his text to characterize Nick, but a large portion of it. Nick is also characterized by another character's point of view. When Nick and his old college buddy Tom Buchanan reunite after their prime years in Chicago "Across Courtesy Bay, the white palaces of the fashionable East Egg neighborhood sparkled on the water's edge, and the story of summer really begins the evening I passed by. there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans. »(5). Fitzgerald's purpose in characterizing Nick and Tom at the beginning is to give the reader a better understanding of how they know each other so well and how their relationship is instrumental in Gatsby's attempt to get the green light. Another useful meaning of the characterization of his characters in his novel is to understand their attitude towards others and what they consider to be right or wrong, what is their moral position. The next character plays an interesting role, one that is quite satisfactory for his role in the novel. Daisy was first introduced with the middle of the paper, yet another way of indirect characterization throughout The Great Gatsby. Finally, we move on to direct characterization, when the character's actions and thoughts verbally and physically express their motivation and thoughts about others. After Gatsby and Daisy establish a sense of romantic connection following their departure and significant separation five years ago, Gatsby finally has the courage to tell Daisy what he really wanted her to do: "'She doesn't 'never loved, you hear?' he cried. . “She only married you because I was poor and she was tired of waiting for me. It was a terrible mistake, but in her heart she never loved anyone but me!'” (131). Finally, after all the pent-up angst and waiting, Gatsby blurted out what he really wanted Daisy to do, nothing more, nothing less until she did it, then they could move on to more "steps." practices ».
