Throughout The Great Gatsby, Jay Gatsby exemplifies the qualities of a tragic hero. The first stage of becoming a tragic hero involves facing difficult circumstances, or predicaments, in life. When Gatsby, or James Gatz (which is what his name was to begin with), was growing up, he had a less than glamorous lifestyle. He claims that “his parents were shiftless and unsuccessful farm people…” (104) so his family was not very wealthy. As Gatsby began his adulthood, he was forced to support himself and pay his way through college. At age seventeen, “ …he had been beating his way along the south shore of Lake Superior as a clam digger and a salmon fisher or in any other capacity that brought him food and bed” (104). At that time, Gatsby was so desperate and poor he would do anything to survive. He attended Oxford and “stayed there two weeks, dismayed at its ferocious indifference to the drums of his destiny…and despising the janitor’s work with which he was to pay his way through” (105). Gatsby was always trying to find something to please him “but his heart was in a constant, turbulent riot” (105). Just as he is at his lowest point, an old sailor named Dan Cody comes upon Jay to relieve him of all his miseries. Dan Cody was a very prosperous gentleman of about age fifty who sailed around the world in his yacht. He is described as “a grey, florid man with a hard empty face” (106). The attractive lifestyle that Cody portrayed was well appreciated by James: “To young Gatz, resting on oars and looking up at the railed deck, that yacht represented all the beauty and glamor in the world” (106). Gatsby claims that “the arrangement lasted five years during which the boat went three times around the continent” (106). Dan Cody showed Gatsby all the things of the world and rescued him from his troubles. This encounter was the second step in becoming a tragic hero. Gatsby dealt with his predicaments by escaping onto a yacht with Dan Cody. This stage is called psychomachia, or a mental debate. |
