The Immoralness and Corruption of the Characters in Gatsby
The Immoralness and Corruption of the Characters in GatsbyIn the novel The Great Gatsby the major characters could no be characterized as moral , and throughout the novel people and their actions are corrupt. For Example Daisy Buchanan is immoral and corrupt because of her snobbish ideals about money. Gatsby does not seem immoral, but when you see through his illusion he is. Tom is also immoral and corrupt because he treats women badly and his views of white supremacy. Nick last but not least is somewhat immoral because he helped two people have an affair. The entire story line of The Great Gatsby is full of immoral and corrupt characters.In the novel Nick is portrayed to have good values, but in all actuality he is corrupt in a way. First Nick uses Jordan Baker because she because of her status as a golf star. Also he did not see their relationship as a serious one. She was basically a quick fix for him at that point in time. Secondly Nick has know about
What day would suit you?"(Gatsby,87). Last the most immoral thing Nick did was hook up Gatsby and Daisy. This is when Nick and Gatsby were planning a secret reunion between the two ex- lovers. Because of that Daisy is the most immoral and corrupt character of the novel. He said and I quote "The white race will be submerged"(Gatsby,17). Nick started the whole immoral behavior between Gatsby and Daisy. Tom is a bad person who makes a lot of mistakes and has many immoral qualities. Even though at times Nick is a good character at times his actions and choices are poor. First Daisy did not marry Gatsby because he was not rich and he didn't have the financial status she wanted. Gatsby is similar to Nick in a way about him being moral at times but immoral at others. Daisy Buchanan is a very corrupt character in this book. The Great Gatsby is based on lies, deception, corruption and immoral ness of people. No matter what he'd done or created Gatsby himself is a big contribution. Nick says and I quote (About Jordan) "She was incurably dishonest.
