註釋

Fitzgerald's use of setting as a technical device in his four completed novels has never been subjected to a systematic analysis. The aim of the present study is to show how the novelist availed himself of this artistic device as a means of creating «atmosphere, character, meaning» and «symbol». As the «development» of Fitzgerald's visual imagination forms the second object of this investigation the novels are examined in the chronological order of their composition. Each novel is discussed under a number of sub-headings arranged according to place-names.
