The Reality Of The 1920's

The 1920s was an era of American change. "The roar of 1920s" had a great influence on economic, social standards, and daily life. It is a time when consumer goods and the household industry in the United States achieved solid results with rising wages, shortening working hours and increasing consumer goods manufacturing by 60%. However, this is also an era opposite to adversity to others such as immigrants and farmers. Immigrants are doing a lot of competition when they are looking for work, and Americans do not treat them fairly, depending on where they are from and what they believe.

The groovy picture book of the 1920s shows it as a period of excitement, hedonism and prosperity, but in fact the 1920s was the ten years of poverty and anxiety caused by the end of the First World War. . The soaring trend of the 1920s has defeated all obstacles in the American deep-rooted Victorian tradition, and its heritage continues to exist in modern America. In the 21st century, there have been decades of trends that have long been thought to be epidemic and harmful to society. The era of roaring in the 1920s is a light that serves as a guide for modern American new ideas and experiments. Conservatism, traditionism, and the Victorian ideals bothered patience and growth countries, but the intolerance and anxiety experienced in the 1920s yielded way to the modernization of America in the 21st century.

The setting is the most important physical expression of the theme in the novel, and matching characters and classes completely evoke the new social reality of the 1920s. Each of the four important geographical locations in the novel - West Egg, East Egg, Ash Valley, and New York - correspond to the particular theme or character type encountered throughout the story. In the first chapter we will introduce the two most important areas of West Egg and East Egg. Each family has lots of riches, but it is only separated by small water, but the two areas are almost opposite. Like Gatsby, Western eggs are full of decorative luxury and symbolize the emergence of new wealthy people outside the rule of the 20th century aristocracy. It is related to Gatsby's horrible mansion and the inner dynamism behind his own wealth. Nonetheless, East Egg has something to do with the monotony of Buchanan's social position.

Everyone seems to have money in the 1920s America known as Jazz Age, Golden 20s, or Rolling 20s. I could not imagine the nightmare of the collapse of Wall Street in October 1929 until that happened. In the 1920s, the traditional American environment was interrupted. The Great War destroyed old social customs and new social customs. A young woman, especially a young woman. They stun the old generation with a new generation of hairstyle (short hair), and they often exposed their legs and knees, and wear much shorter clothes than they see. If you are wearing a beach suit that is regarded as awkward in public places, Flappers may be arrested as being jealous. They are rolling on the knees, wearing stockings that cut their hair at a male barber.
