摘　要

了不起的盖茨比生活在一战期间，这时候人民对传统观念持怀疑态度并且在渐渐的打破这些观念，传统意义上的美国梦也被歪曲了。

在小说中，戴西是个出身富裕家庭，从小过着舒适的生活的女人,要想获得她的爱情，就必须有足够的金钱为她提供一个美好的生活。

为了实现自己的美国梦，赢得戴西，盖茨比通过各种手段赚钱，包括在禁酒期间非法运酒。

但是，当盖茨比帮助戴西成功逃脱那场车祸，并被误认为是凶手被杀害的时候，他的美国梦破灭了。

在他死后，没有任何东西是属于他的，他所有的财富对他来说已经没有任何意义，而戴西也没有回到他身边。

从盖茨比美国梦的幻灭，可以得出一个结论，他们的爱情和金钱是密切联系着的。

这篇文章通过对菲次杰瑞德于1925年出版的小说《了不起的盖茨比》中盖茨比美国梦的幻灭的分析，对小说人物间的爱情和金钱的关系有了一个初步的认识——爱情和金钱是紧密联系的。

本文结合小说和现实中存在的现状，得出在现实生活中，爱情和金钱是密不可分的结论。

总的来说，文章是在对了不起的盖茨比美国梦的幻灭的分析的基础上，透视了现实中的爱情和金钱的关系。
