.... the land of Corinth and such a damned destiny.” That free will act must have been invoked by fate, for the very land he fled to was the land of Thebes, the land where his real parents rein as king and queen. It would seem that fate not only controls people’s lives, but their own free will! His plans to disrupt his destiny played right into those of fate’s.

.... of the end. When Gatsby trod his first step upon Dan Cody's boat, it was as though he was proclaiming that his old self never existed, and his new-self would flourish.

Jazz symbolized the music that bloomed along with the Harlem Reniassance between the years of 1920 and 1930. Like the harlem Reniassance, it claimed to offer a better life foe southerners with new hopes of opportunities in the North.
