Titel 9 Gatsby's 20s: an age of decadence and decay!

We will investigate the so-called 'roaring twenties'. An era of incredible contrasts and wild cultural innovation!
An age of affluence and decadence for those who had the means, but also an era that highlighted the stark class differences and racial borders being challenged through art and music.
In the process we'll be reading the novel ' The Great Gatsby'
Focus points (among others):
Basic knowledge about the roaring twenties:
Societal development, prohibition, consumerism, urbanization, mass media, entertainment, class differences, the stock market boom and crash etc.

In our study of the novel, we will focused on areas such as:
- Nick Carraway and his role as an elusive and unreliable narrator
- Gatsby's ostentatious and lavish parties and façade (appearance vs. reality)
- Class differences: Newly rich vs. Old money (West Egg and East Egg) and The affluence of 'The Eggs compared to 'the Valley of Ashes'.
- The unattainable American Dream (for those without means)
- Gatsby's ambiguity and complexity
- Symbolism! (Green light, TJ Eckleburg, The Valley of Ashes etc.)

In order to understand 'the Roaring Twenties' we will watched ABC's:
The Century: America's Time - 1920-1929: Boom To Bust

Finally, we are going to watchBaz Luhrman's 2013 adaption of the Great Gatsby and compared its wild postmodern style to the novel
