Analysis of characters in The Great Gatsby
(You have been assigned your character)

Consider the strengths and weaknesses of your character. Include the following:

• the physical description of the character and what it reveals (e.g. Tom's strength)
• what the character says and the way in which it is said (e.g. Gatsby's use of 'Old Sport')
• what the character does (e.g. Jordan lies about leaving the top of the car down)
• what do other characters say about your character (e.g. Gatsby says Daisy's voice is "full of money.") Include the narrator's opinions.
• comparisons and contrasts (implicit or explicit) between your characters and others (e.g. contrasts between Myrtle Wilson and her husband)
• colours, imagery or symbolism associated with your character (e.g. Daisy's 'white girlhood' and 'white dresses.'
• For some characters, it may be useful to consider names.
• to what extent, if any, does your character change and develop?
