Tender is the night and scott fitzgerald’s artistic creativity

Abstract EN

Scott Fitzgerald’s perspective on the film industry is very complicated.

his interest in the visual discourse of the cinema can be regarded as an aesthetic yearning for a meaningful and deliberate discourse that would highlight the importance of visual and spatial descriptions over linguistic ones.

this research paper aims to provide some new insight into tender is the night (1934).

the argument of this article is based on the fact that Fitzgerald’s familiarity with the cinematic sphere did not guarantee him artistic success.

nevertheless, he used the cinematic strategies of visual description to add meaning and imagination to his fiction using nonlinguistic details.

the cinematic perspective of Dick Diver represents Fitzgerald’s inner battle as an artist.

in other words, we want to demonstrate that Dick’s cinematic conduct reflects Fitzgerald’s genuine concern for understanding what is not readily grasped or stated.

Dick’s cinematic vision allows him to gather different fragments, which is an essential step for both Dick and Fitzgerald since fragments have their origins in the subconscious.
