And the rapid rise of later writers like Hemingway, You can talk about the early 1940s, Fitzgerald's work has not received as much attention as ever. The study of "the great gatsby" is only based on trivial comments. At the end of 1940, The sudden death of Fitzgerald, Make people realize that this great novelist may be forgotten. Many writers and literary critics believe that there is a need for systematic analysis and fair evaluation of their life, works and achievements. The first is a study of the author's life, In the early 1950s, Malcolm Calley 2, Edmund Wilson and a large number of American literary critics have made a detailed introduction to their life experience and creative process.

二、国外研究现状

After decades of precipitation, Foreign research on Fitzgerald has been more comprehensive, But subject to conditions, Many of the excellent research works have not been introduced into China. Fitzgerald's acceptance in my country has also gone through a long and difficult process from the beginning of the total negation to the grudging acceptance, And then finally be fully affirmed. In the 1950s, For various reasons, The research and translation of American literature in our country is almost stagnant, Fitzgerald's works are not published in official Chinese translation. With reform and opening up in 1978, Some excellent works of American modern literature began to appear in the public view of China, Some visionary scholars have begun to study the normative system of American modern literature. Mr. Dong Hengxun published the Modern American Novelist Theory in 1978, In the book ," the American Dream "seeking and disillusionment-comment of Scott Fitzgerald this chapter is dedicated to the work of Fitzgerald and focus on the recommendation of the novel The Great Gatsby, At the same time, it also makes a thorough and detailed analysis of the artistic techniques and the connotation of the works used in the novel.

After entering the 21st century, the domestic research on the Great Gatsby has made more comprehensive and systematic progress, involving psychological analysis, feminism, cultural research and many other angles. It is worth mentioning that in 2002, a systematic study of Fitzgerald's monograph, Wu Jianguo's Fitzgerald Research, came out. The book comprehensively introduces Fitzgerald's life experience, works creation and domestic and foreign research status. Although Fitzgerald's works have been introduced into China, some achievements have been made in the domestic study of the Great Gatsby. For example, in addition to the study of the theme of the works, a large number of researchers have studied Fitzgerald's novels from the aspect of artistic techniques. There are also many excellent research papers, such as Wang Bo's Narrative Art of Fitzgerald's novels. But on the whole, the research on the Great Gatsby in our academic circles is still not comprehensive and systematic. In terms of the breadth and depth of the research, it is far less than that of other American writers, such as Hemingway and Faulkner. There are many papers, but many lack the consciousness of global vision and global perception. Therefore, at present, the domestic study of the novel The Great Gatsby still has a great improvement space.
