I've always liked the party animal author, F. Scott Fitzgerald, although I wouldn't want to be neighbors with him--too dangerous. Even so, I find he and his wife, Zelda's, lives fascinating. Here is a little about his twenties (the party) and his thirties (the hangover). He also has powerful life lessons, inadvertently given, for anyone who wants to be happy.

For Part 1, check the feed!Time to go back to the golden age of cinema; this week we'll tell the story of how sport first burst onto the big screen, how the first silent films were soundtracked and how F Scott Fitzgerald fell in and out of love with Hollywood.And we're also discussing the things that take us back in time (like the theme tune to Going For Gold).

Zelda Fitzgerald basically defined the iconic image of a flapper from America's Jazz Age. She was immortalized in fiction by her husband, F. Scott Fitzgerald, who is (debatably) the great American novelist. Sadly, the way he portrayed the sadness behind the glitter and glitz was all too real as well. Zelda was beautiful, witty, charming, and talented, but mental illness, alcohol, financial worries, and misogyny all took their toll.

Elizabeth Newman, Artistic Director of Sheffield Theatres, has adapted F Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby, which is now 100 years old, for the stage for the theatre she recently left, Pitlochry Festival Theatre. It will be co-produced by Derby Theatre, where it will also open that venue's 50th anniversary season, and will by directed by Derby's Artistic Director, Sarah Brigham. BTG Editor David Chadderton spoke to Sarah and Elizabeth about the production, the story's continuing appeal and how their adaptation works, as well as about Derby's anniversary, Elizabeth's move from Scotland to South Yorkshire… and snooker. Elizabeth Newman's adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, directed by Sarah Brigham, will run as part of the summer repertory season at Pitlochry Festival Theatre in Scotland from 27 June to 25 September 2025 before transferring to Derby Theatre from 3 to 25 October.

Patrick O'Sullivan Greene is back on the show to promote his new book about F. Scott Fitzgerald.  Fitzgerald's Irish heritage was such an interesting part of his identity.  A part of his identity with which he sometimes struggled.  

A century ago, America was the literary and intellectual powerhouse of the world. Black writers defined the black experience in the Harlem Renaissance, F. Scott Fitzgerald captured the glamour and hypocrisy of the jazz age in The Great Gatsby and thousands of detective, western and sci fi pulp novels were published, creating the foundations of modern genre fiction. Today we hear from Tom Lutz, founding editor of the LA Review of Books and author of 1925: A Literary Encyclopaedia and explore this extraordinary explosion of thought and literature. *****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/explaininghistory.

You might think of The Great Gatsby as a classic New York City novel –  but the events that set off the action of the story actually take place somewhere else. In Louisville, Kentucky. It's where Daisy and Gatsby first meet, and where Daisy marries Gatsby's rival, Tom Buchanan (boo, hiss!) In today's episode, we track down the footsteps of author F. Scott Fitzgerald, who spent two tumultuous months of his life near Louisville while stationed at an Army camp during WWI. And we'll try to find the places that might have inspired his most famous work… Plus: Track down Fitzgerald's footsteps in Louisville and find events related to the 100th birthday of the Great Gatsby.This episode was produced in partnership with Louisville Tourism.

Überall lebt man die Lust am Lautmalerischen: ein Streifzug durch klingende Sprache und Musik. – Der Roman «Der grosse Gatsby» von F. Scott Fitzgerald ist 100 Jahre alt und bietet einen erhellenden Blick auf eine imperiale USA. Ausgehend vom Lateinwort des Jahres 2024, das auf eine Mauer in Pompeii geschrieben wurde und offenbar einen Fanfarenklang nachahmt, unternimmt Raphael Zehnder mit Stefan Stirnemann, dem Churer Lateinlehrer und Publizisten, einen Streifzug durch klingende Sprache und Musik: von Goethes «Hochzeitlied» über Donald Duck und Cab Calloways «Minnie The Moocher» bis zu Morgensterns «Grossem Lalula». Sprache ist (auch) Musik, und überall lebt man die Lust am Lautmalerischen. «In unseren Wörtern sind wir alle verbunden und haben alle dieselbe Staatsbürgerschaft», lautet eine von Stirnemanns Erkenntnissen. «Der grosse Gatsby» des US-Amerikaners F. Scott Fitzgerald erschien vor genau 100 Jahren, am 10. April 1925. Der Roman zählt heute zu den weltweit meistgelesenen Werken der Literatur. Das Buch sei von beklemmender Aktualität, sagt Philipp Schweighauser, Professor für Nordamerikanische Literatur an der Universität Basel. Fitzgerald machte in seinem Roman etwa den Rassismus, das imperiale Streben oder das Überlegenheitsdenken der USA zum Thema – und biete damit einen erhellenden Blick auf die USA unter Trump. F. Scott Fitzgerald: Der grosse Gatsby, erhältlich in diversen (Neu-)Übersetzungen und Verlagen.

Katrin Schumacher empfiehlt in dieser Woche drei Romane: "Der Große Gatsby" von F. Scott Fitzgerald, "Kaffee mit Croissant in Avignon" von Ré Soupault und "Schach von Wuthenow" von Theodor Fontane.

Vor genau 100 Jahren erschien einer der größten und schönsten Romane des 20.Jahrhunderts: "Der Große Gatsby" von F.Scott Fitzgerald. Herausgekommen ist aus diesem Anlass eine neue Übersetzung in einer kommentierten Jubiläumsausgabe: Manuela Reichart empfiehlt sie zum Wiederlesen oder - und unbedingt - für eine erste Lektüre.

He also reflects on Fitzgerald's later struggles and enduring literary legacy. In closing, Dr. Meyers reads a passage from his biography of F. Scott Fitzgerald.

John J. Miller is joined by Titus Techera of the American Cinema Foundation to discuss 'Tender Is the Night' by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

In this episode, we mark 100 years since the publication of F Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby and explore how its themes are still relevant today.Featuring Prof Philip McGowan, School of Arts, English and Languages at Queen's University Belfast; Prof Kirk Curnutt, executive director of the F Scott Fitzgerald Society and Professor and chair at the Department of English at Troy University in Alabama; and Dr Alexandra Peat from the School of English, Media and Creative Arts at the University of Galway.

"Der große Gatsby" war – so der amerikanische Schriftsteller Jonathan Lethem – das einzige Buch, das ihn in der Schule wirklich interessiert hat. Das ist doch mal ein Kompliment! Am 10. April 1925, also vor 100 Jahren, wurde der Roman von F. Scott Fitzgerald veröffentlicht. Er gilt bis heute als Schlüsselwerk zum Verständnis der amerikanischen Mentalität und als vielschichtiges Portrait der Stadt New York. Zum Jubiläum erscheint eine umfassende Neuausgabe – über die sprechen die Literaturagenten mit deren Übersetzer Bernhard Robben. Und gleich im Anschluss mit Jonathan Lethem, der mit "Der Fall Brooklyn" einen faszinierenden New York Roman für die Gegenwart geschrieben hat. Dazu: eine Buchvorstellung unserer lesenden Autorin Mithu Sanyal, ein Wirkungstreffer von Maja Lunde und ein Rezension des neuen Romans von Hilmar Kluthe.

Der "Great Gatsby" wurde vor 100 Jahren veröffentlicht, aber sein Protagonist - der wohlhabende Jay Gatsby - ist bis heute ein Mysterium. Lesung von Knut Cordsen und Gespräch mit dem Übersetzer Bernhard Robben.

"I want to write something new," American author F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote in a letter to his editor, "something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." Months later, he presented the results: the novel that would eventually be titled The Great Gatsby. Published in 1925 to middling success, the book has since become a candidate for the Great American Novel, selling more than copies in a month than the book sold during Fitzgerald's entire lifetime. In this episode, Jacke talks to Fitzgerald scholar James West about his work editing the Cambridge Centennial Edition of The Great Gatsby, which celebrates 100 years of this enduring tale of illicit desire, grand illusions, and lost dreams, delivered in lyric prose by an author writing at the peak of his powers.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 84: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:50) SPECIAL COMMENT: Happy Insurrection Day, when Republicans will certify the election of a “president” who is constitutionally ineligible to hold the office according to the 3rd clause of the 14th Amendment and the Electoral Count Reform Act of 2022 and who himself fomented the assault four years ago that ended our conceit about the peaceful transfer of power. The illegitimate president’s Republican whores and servants may in fact trudge to the capitol through a blizzard to make this prostitution of democracy official The Democrats? They won’t say anything because this didn’t TEST well as a campaign ad and their flaccid willingness to risk anything in our defense is further deflated by their perception that this is a fait accompli and since it is a fait accompli ESPECIALLY because of their own cowardice they now have to do their best to compromise, and obey in advance, a group of bandits and pirates posing as a presidential administration, whose only desire TO compromise is to compromise Democrats and the Free Press and Reality and democracy itself. These are some of those Republicans: Freshman Congressman Riley Moore – “My constituents have sent me here to this town not to work with Democrats but to destroy their agenda." “We asked everyone not to leak. Please for god’s sake do not give inside information to the enemy” that's from the LEAD Republican in the House, the CREEPIEST Republican in the House since Denny Hastert, Mike Johnson and I don’t know if by “the enemy” he means the Democrats or the media or both or the temptations of his anti-porn app, and I no longer care. This is Insurrection Day and we all KNOW what the Republicans would be doing today in the mirror version of this grim reality; if they were in charge and Trump were in office and had presidential immunity and a new president was about to sign off on putting him in jail and it would be what they actually did four years ago today only they wouldn’t bother to try to be subtle or legal about it (they’d be gassing up the tanks). AND NO, JUDGE JUAN MERCHAN IS NO HERO. He too is obeying in advance. Along with the Washington Post, squeezing out cartoonist Ann Telnaes. And Brian Stelter, covering up for Fox News. And the media soft-pedaling the Vegas bomber's hopes to see all Democrats murdered, and Congressman Tom Suozzi, and soon-to-disappear Senator Kyrsten Sinema. B-Block (29:30) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Those memorializing Aaron Brown without including the incident about his refusal to cover The Challenger explosion; Congresswoman Nancy Mace and "Gunther Eagleman" who only read the headline; and the meticulous Oliver Darcy who only gets mentioned here because he asked a question that really traumatized me: What will Olivia Nuzzi do in 2025? (42:14) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Remember dear Flaco? The majestic owl liberated from the Central Park Zoo? There is an extraordinary new book about him. And from an old book: remember the Ash Heaps in "The Great Gatsby"? They were real and you'll never believe what was built were they used to sit. C-Block (52:00) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Young Tippy needs the same surgery my new pup Kitt just got, and we need your help to pay for it. (55:30) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: It's an actors' story that invokes Trump, Orson Welles, The Odd Couple, Mike Nichols - and me? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

First published in December of 1922, "Winter Dreams" was one of the short stories known as the "Gatsby cluster," as F. Scott Fitzgerald worked out the characters, themes, and prose style that would later make his famous novel The Great Gatsby (1925) an American classic. Telling the story of Dexter Green, a Midwestern golf caddy who becomes a wealthy - but not wealthy enough - suitor to a rich young heiress Judy Jones, "Winter Dreams" works out some of Fitzgerald's own nostalgia and regret for his thwarted relationship with Chicago socialite Ginevra King. In this episode, Jacke and Mike introduce and comment upon the story, which is read in its entirety. PLUS Lev Grossman (The Bright Sword) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

Stewart O'Nan, the prolific author of West of Sunset and other works of fiction and non-fiction, shares his one true sentence from “The End of Something.”

The idea of the American Dream brings a nuclear family, white picket fence, and burgeoning Capitalist society to mind. But the origination of this term is much different than what we might think about today. But first, join Ash and Ty for a breakdown of the important astrological transits for the week: Mercury trine Uranus (September 24th) Mercury opposite Neptune (September 25th) Mercury trine Pluto (September 26th) Mercury enters Libra (September 26th) Sun and Mercury conjunct South Node (September 29th) Ty details the history of the term "American Dream", and the pair analyze how the Great Gatsby was part of the origination of this ideal. Ash is extremely excited to deduce that the mystery chart belongs to a well known literary figure who has a most unusual astrology chart that is both lucky and extremely tragic. This might be Ash's favorite episode so far.  ☼ ｡˚⋆ฺ ✧ ೃ༄*ੈ✩ ☼ ｡˚⋆ฺ ✧ ೃ༄*ੈ✩ Please subscribe and give us a great rating, tell your friends, and join us next week for the astro forecast and more cosmic chit chat.

Chapter 1:Summary of Book The Great Gatsby"The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a novel set in the summer of 1922 on Long Island and in New York City. The story is narrated by Nick Carraway, a young bond salesman from Minnesota who rents a house in the West Egg district of Long Island, an area populated by the newly rich who lack social connections and sophistication.Nick's neighbor is Jay Gatsby, a mysterious and wealthy man who throws extravagant parties every weekend, hoping to attract specific guests. As Nick becomes more acquainted with Gatsby, he learns that Gatsby was born poor and that his real name is James Gatz. Gatsby had previously been in love with Daisy Buchanan, Nick's cousin, when he was a young military officer. Post-war, Gatsby dedicated himself to gaining wealth and social standing to win Daisy back, believing that he could recreate the past through sheer force of will and wealth.Through his connection to Nick, Gatsby rekindles his romance with Daisy, although she is now married to Tom Buchanan, a man of established wealth and social standing, but also arrogant and unfaithful. The reunion leads to an affair between Gatsby and Daisy, which climaxes in a confrontation between Tom and Gatsby in a suite at the Plaza Hotel.The situation becomes tragic when Daisy, driving Gatsby's car, accidentally strikes and kills Tom's mistress, Myrtle Wilson, on their way back from the city. Gatsby decides to take the blame, believing his wealth can shelter him. However, Myrtle's husband, George Wilson, misled by Tom to believe that Gatsby was both his wife's lover and killer, shoots Gatsby dead in his pool before taking his own life.In the wake of the tragedy, Nick is disillusioned with the East Coast's morally corrupt and superficial society. He arranges a poorly-attended funeral for Gatsby, breaks off his relationship with Jordan Baker, a professional golfer and mutual friend, and moves back to the Midwest. The novel concludes with Nick reflecting on the unattainable nature of the American Dream, and how people are relentlessly drawn into a past that is forever out of reach, much like Gatsby with his indomitable hopes and dreams.Chapter 2:The Theme of Book The Great GatsbyCertainly!
