Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born in September 24, 1896 and died in December 21, 1940. He was an American fiction writer, whose works helped to illustrate the ostentation and excess of the Jazz Age. While he reached popular success, fame, and fortune in his lifetime, he did not receive much critical acclaim until after his death. He was Perhaps the most notable member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s.

Fitzgerald is now widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century. He finished rich novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful, The Great Gatsby, and Tender Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Last Tycoon, was published after his death.

The "single green light" on Daisy's dock that Gatsby gazes wistfully at from his own house across the water represents the "unattainable dream".

The ironic part of this symbol is that:

B. What Gatsby wants is behind him, in the past, not in front of him.

the personification of the word prudence d) it effectively enhances the logos and ethos of the argument.

ethos means appeal to the credibility of the argument, that it is worth listening to and acting upon.
