Bryant Mangum, "F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940)," Encyclopedia of the Novel, ed. Paul Schellinger, London and Chicago: Fitzroy-Dearborn, 1998, pp. 416-417. Reprinted with permission of Fitzroy-Dearborn Publishers FITZGERALD, F. Scott (1896-1940) The importance of F. Scott Fitzgerald's major contributions to the development of the novel were blurred during his lifetime by contemporary images of him as historian of the Jazz Age, as creator of the American flapper, and as popular author of more than 150 short stories, many of them about young love for the Saturday Evening Post , the mouthpiece of middle America in the 1920's and 1930's. While it would be a mistake to discount the importance of Fitzgerald's role as social historian, it has become increasingly clear to critics and literary historians in the half century since Fitzgerald's death, as it was indeed clear to a few serious artists and literary critics such as T.S. Eliot and H.L. Mencken during his lifetime, that his artistic contributions to American letters, particularly to the novel form, place him alongside such other immortals as Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry James, two authors whom, along with Edith Wharton and for very different reasons, he perhaps most closely resembles. Fitzgerald's reputation as a novelist, as one observer has noted, results from "the hard core of morality" in his work and from his offering "a fiction that is hard to imitate but from which much can be learned." Fitzgerald's experiments with form led him from the novel of saturation in the case of his first novel

Scott Fitzgerald F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) is best known for his novels and short stories which chronicle the excesses of America's 'Jazz Age' during the 1920s. Born into a fairly well-to-do family in St Paul, Minnesota in 1896 Fitzgerald attended, but never graduated from Princeton University. Here he mingled with the monied classes from the Eastern Seaboard who so obsessed him for the rest of his life. In 1917 he was drafted into the army, but he never saw active service abroad. Instead, he spent much of his time writing and re-writing his first novel This Side of Paradise, which on its publication in 1920 became an instant success. In the same year he married the beautiful Zelda Sayre and together they embarked on a rich life of endless parties. Dividing their time between America and fashionable resorts in Europe, the Fitzgeralds became as famous for their lifestyle as for the novels he wrote. Fitzgerald once said 'Sometimes I don't know whether Zelda and I are real or whether we are characters in one of my novels'. He followed his first success with The Beautiful and the Damned (1922), and

Scott Fitzgerald's novels and stories from The Paper Store. Fitzgerald was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota. He went to Princeton University, but quit in 1917. In 1920, Fitzgerald published his first novel, This Side of Paradise . The novel deals with the post-World War I generation and their disillusioned lives. Later that year, Fitzgerald married Zelda Sayre, the quintessential 1920s flapper. Fitzgerald's writings grew in popularity, and his short stories especially were in high demand. These stories appeared in 4 books: Flappers and Philosophers Tales of the Jazz Age All the Sad Young Men (1926), and Taps at Reveille The Great Gatsby (1925), Fitzgerald's masterpiece, discusses the pursuit and disillusionment with the American Dream. Unfortunately, this novel sold poorly and Fitzgerald descended into alcoholism. Tender is the Night (1934) was an almost autobiographical novel about Fitzgerald's life with Zelda, and also sold poorly. The Last Tycoon (1941) remained unfinished at Fitzgerald's death.

F. Scott Fitzgerald Fitzgerald was friends with the noted critic Edmund Wilson while both were students at Princeton University. Wilson was enormously well-read, and when Fitzgerald told him that Fitzgerald hoped to become one of the great writers, Wilson was shocked and thought he meant to be as good as Homer and Dante and Shakespeare . Actually, Fitzgerald was thinking of Booth Tarkington. Fitzgerald was the author of The Great Gatsby as well as other novels and short stories. The Great Gatsby is his one great novel. His wife, Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald, was also a writer. His latter years were beset with financial worries, and his wife's increasing insanity. He died in Hollywood in 1940 whilst working as a screenwriter, a profession he hated.

FRtR Outlines American Literature Modernism and Experimentation ... Authors F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) An Outline of American Literature: by Kathryn VanSpanckeren Modernism and Experimentation: Authors: F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) Index Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald's life resembles a fairy tale. During World War I, Fitzgerald enlisted in the U.S. Army and fell in love with a rich and beautiful girl, Zelda Sayre, who lived near Montgomery, Alabama, where he was stationed. Zelda broke off their engagement because he was relatively poor. After he was discharged at war's end, he went to seek his literary fortune in New York City in order to marry her. His first novel, This Side of Paradise (1920), became a best- seller, and at 24 they married. Neither of them was able to withstand the stresses of success and fame, and they squandered their money. They moved to France to economize in 1924 and returned seven years later. Zelda became mentally unstable and had to be institutionalized; Fitzgerald himself became an alcoholic and died young as a movie screenwriter. Fitzgerald's secure place in American literature rests primarily on his novel The Great Gatsby (1925), a brilliantly written, economically structured story about the American dream of the self-made man. The protagonist, the mysterious Jay Gatsby, discovers the devastating cost of success in terms of personal fulfillment and love. Other fine works include

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) Contributing Editors: John F. Callahan and John Alberti Classroom Issues and Strategies Students often tend to identify Fitzgerald with the nostalgic sensibility of the protagonist of "Babylon Revisited," Charlie Wales, and have a corollary tendency to view Fitzgerald as a participant in the excesses of the Jazz Age rather than as a writer who cast a critical eye on his generation's experience. Fitzgerald's essays serve as important companions to his fiction. I fall back on the trick of photocopying one or more of the following essays: "Echoes of the Jazz Age"; "My Lost City"; "The Crack Up"; "Sleeping and Waking"; or "Pasting It Together." On the relationship between Fitzgerald and Wales, I focus on the overlay of observation and allusion that gives the story a perspective much deeper than Charlie Wales's rather superficial, self-pitying point of view. Students are very interested in the relationship between Fitzgerald's life and his work and in his sense that the best possibilities of American history are in the past. Their questions include why relationships between men and women seem often bound up with money and social status, and whether or not Fitzgerald maintains a critical detachment from his characters' views of reality.
