Gatsby Notes 3


  • displacement- when character is out of unfamiliar context (wrong place at the wrong time)
  • anachronism- chronos = time ------> out of time
  • prodigality- it's suppose to be there
  • use of quotation marks can mean a sense of irony and humor
  • Nick received an invitation of Gatsby's party (note)
  • NICK FINALLY MEETS GATSBY!!! He was shocked because they were having a conversation and he didn't even know he was talking to Gatsby this whole time >0<
  • People try to figure out Gatsby's past life or secrets (german spy, a killer, etc.)
