F.Scott Fitzgerald is read and studied all over the world and his works continue to elicit spirited responses. This collection grew out of the F.Scott Fitzgerald conference that convened in Princeton at the centennial of this author's birth. Bringing together dozens of scholars and commentators, the conference and the book celebrate the growing legacy of Fitzgeralds's art. The subjects of these 19 essays reflect the contributors' wish to shine new light on less-frequently discussed aspects of Fitzgerald's work. Topics include Fitzgerald's Princeton influences and his expression of catholic romanticism; his treatments of youth culture, the devil, and waste, parallels in the work of Mencken, Cather, and Murakami; and the ways gender, pastoral mode, humour, and the Civil War are variously presented in his work. One illustrated summary examines Fitzgerald's effect on popular culture through his appearance in the comics. Two broad overviews - one on Fitzgerald's career and another on the final developments in the author's style - round out the collection.
