Discuss the novel's theme that the American Dream is corrupted by the desire for wealth. What does the novel and its theme offer
professor190 [17]

Answer: The answer is provided below.

Explanation:

The American Dream—that which hard work can lead a person from rags to riches has always been a core facet of the American identity since its inception. People came from different parts of the world to America seeking freedom and wealth. The Great Gatsby depicted the tide turning east, as people flock to New York City looking for stock market fortunes. This was portrayed in the Great Gatsby shift as the symbol of the corruption of the American Dream. It is no longer a vision of life building but just about getting rich.

Gatsby symbolizes the corrupted Dream and also the original uncorrupted Dream. Gatsby sees wealth as the solution to his problems, seeks money through shady schemes, and also reinvents himself so much and he becomes disconnected from his past. Also, Gatsby's corrupt dream of wealth is triggered by an incorruptible love he has for Daisy.

Gatsby's failure doesn't prove the American Dream but rather it proves a folly of short cutting that dream by allowing materialism and corruption to prevail over integrity, hard work, and real love.

algol13

The story talks about three boys Ralph,Piggy and Jack who are contesting for a boys election .Ralph is a charismatic boy with athletic qualities,on the other hand Piggy is a fat boy with a great understanding of the Adult world and Jack display an aggressive and barbaric nature

Explanation:

Piggy was a fat guy who wore specs but would have been a good leader because he was very mature and was well organized and innovative ,he also displayed the true knowledge on the outside world .If the boys had chosen Piggy as their leader they would have survived but instead they cracked jokes on Piggy because oh looks and health problem(i.e Asthma)

On the other hand Jack displays an  aggressive and barbaric in nature and he seeks constant approval form the other boys.He also hates Ralph and his personality.The boys show immediate acceptance to both Ralph and jack due to their Personality

<u>This fact suggest that human beings have  very limited vision  and are sometimes self destructive also rather than humiliating piggy the boys would have gained a lot from Piggys  knowledge BUT due to their limited vision they chose Jack and Ralph</u>
