F. SCOTT FITZGERALD’S LEDGER TRANSCRIPTION PAGE 1 F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Ledger, 1919–1938 F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Ledger is one of the richest primary source documents in existence for any literary author. Fitzgerald began recording information in this business ledger sometime in 1919 or 1920 after leaving the Army and moving to New York to begin his professional life as a writer. Fitzgerald divided the Ledger into five sections: “Record of Published Fiction,” “Money Earned by Writing since Leaving Army,” “Published Miscelani (including movies) for which I was Paid,” “Zelda’s Earnings,” and “Outline Chart of my Life”. The “Record of Published Fiction” and “Published Miscelani” are spreadsheets listing everything he wrote and its publication history up to the time of its final disposition. He meticulously tracked his earnings from 1919 through 1937 in the section titled “Money Earned by Writing since Leaving Army.” In addition, he recorded Zelda’s earnings from her writing. In the autobiographical section, “Outline Chart of my Life,” he provided background about his early years but later included monthly entries for each year. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Ledger is part of the Matthew J. and Arlyn Bruccoli Collection of F. Scott Fitzgerald held by the Irvin Department of Rare Books and Special Collections, located in the Ernest F. Hollings Special Collections Library at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, S.C. The digital version of the Ledger, which includes access to the full text and is keyword-searchable, was produced by the staff of the Digital Collections Department of the University of South Carolina. The scanning was done by Kelly Riddle (MLIS 2012) and Matthew W. Shepherd (MLIS 2012), and the transcription was prepared and formatted by Matthew W. Shepherd. The transcription was edited by Judith Baughman. —Elizabeth Sudduth, Director of the Irvin Department of Rare Books and Special Collections, University of South Carolina F. SCOTT FITZGERALD’S LEDGER TRANSCRIPTION PAGE 2 Transcriber’s Notes Each page of the MS is transcribed as a single unbroken page. Pages that do not bear Fitzgerald’s handwriting are omitted. Page numbers from the MS are included in the transcription. The transcription’s running page numbers are indicated by the text TRANSCRIPTION PAGE in the header to distinguish the two paginations. Page sizes vary by section: . Published Fiction: Tabloid (11″ × 17″); . Earnings: Letter (8.5″ × 11″), except page 74, which is legal size (8.5″ × 14″); . Published Miscellany: Legal (8.5″ × 14″); . Autobiographical Chart: Legal (8.5″ × 14″); . All other pages are letter size (8.5″ × 11″). Page margins at top and bottom are 1″; page margins at left and right are 0.5″. Blank ruled lines in the MS are transcribed one-to-one as blank typed lines. Type is in Times New Roman, except for special Unicode characters for which a different font is used (e.g. , ★). △ Type is at 12 points, except: . Published Fiction (10 points, due to page size limitations); . Published Miscellany (11 points, due to page size limitations); . Very small handwriting, including that which occupies half the ruled line height in the MS (typically 8 points); . Very large handwriting, such as the red notes at the bottoms of pages 162 and 164 (size varies); . Superscript and subscript. The text in this transcription is kerned, but no ligatures are used. In some cases, the space between characters in the transcription has been condensed to fit the available space and preserve unbroken lines, often in places where Fitzgerald himself similarly condensed his script. Black ink is used throughout for glyphs and shapes, except: . Gray type to indicate partially erased text; . Dull translucent orange lines to approximate those on pages 74 and 75; . Red underlines and notes on pages 162–165. The relative horizontal spacing of text is approximated in this transcription, except for header material, which is arranged as follows: Page numbers are always flush left or right, followed by one blank line, followed by the heading and upper marginalia. Headings written on the uppermost ruled line are transcribed with no intervening blank line (e.g. page 52); headings written above this line are transcribed with one or more intervening blank lines, depending on the upper marginalia (e.g. page 165). F. SCOTT FITZGERALD’S LEDGER TRANSCRIPTION PAGE 3 Bold square brackets indicate illegible text: black if struck out, and gray if partially erased. Double underlines indicate text that has two or more underlines in the MS. Similarly, double strikethroughs indicate text that has two or more strikethroughs in the MS. Horizontal square brackets under text indicate that the text occupies the same horizontal space in the MS. Superscript text within such a bracket in the transcription appears above the normally positioned text in the MS. A bracket enclosing only normally positioned text indicates text that is overlaid directly on other text. Vertical square brackets to the left of lines of type indicate that the transcribed lines occupy the same ruled line in the MS. Fitzgerald’s symbol for and resembles a plus sign (+). However, since it is semantically an ampersand (&), the latter symbol is used in this transcription. Since Fitzgerald’s dashes vary in width and spacing, this transcription attempts to approximate each en and em dash in context, though they are generally ambiguous. In many cases, capitalization in the MS is ambiguous, such as for the letters m/M in mother. I have attempted to choose whichever case seems probable in context, but the matter is open to interpretation. The Published Fiction and Published Miscellany sections are rendered as tables, with lines separating rows to aid the reader. The Name column on even-numbered pages of the Published Fiction section has been reproduced on odd- numbered pages for ease of reference. I extend my sincere gratitude and admiration to Judith Baughman for her careful proofreading of the transcription. With her extensive background in Fitzgerald’s life and works, she deciphered and corrected many of the enigmatic names throughout the text. Any remaining discrepancies, however, are mine. —Matthew W.

Scott Fitzgerald http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/F._Scott_Fitzgerald Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (Saint Paul, Minnesota, 24 de septiembre de 1896 - Hollywood, California, 21 de diciembre de 1940), fue un novelista estadounidense de la «época del jazz». Su obra es el reflejo, desde una elevada óptica literaria, de los problemas de la juventud de su país en los años que siguieron a la Primera Guerra Mundial. En sus novelas expresa el desencanto de los privilegiados jóvenes de su generación que arrastraban su lasitud entre el jazz y la ginebra (A este lado del paraíso, 1920), en Europa en la Costa Azul (Suave es la noche, 1934), o en el fascinante decorado de las ciudades estadounidenses (El gran Gatsby, 1925). Su extraordinaria Suave es la noche, narra el ascenso y caída de Dick Diver, un joven psicoanalista, condicionado por Nicole, su mujer y su paciente. El eco doloroso de la hospitalización de su propia mujer, Zelda, diagnosticada esquizofrénica en 1932, es manifiesto. Este libro define el tono más denso y sombrío de su obra, perceptible en muchos escritos autobiográficos finales.

    Jordan 1 Matthew Thomas Jordan Professor Howell Tutorial 9 March 2018 A Romantic Readiness: The Virtue of Hope and the Fiction of F. Scott Fitzgerald Not a whit. We defy augury. There is a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come. The readiness is all. Since no man of aught he leaves knows, what is 't to leave betimes? Let be. (Hamlet, V.ii.233-238) The theological virtue of hope has often been confused or mistaken for a conversational meaning of hope. Often saying one hopes for something is interchangeable with saying that one has the wish for something or the desire that something come to pass. This type of hope indicates the attractiveness of something that is by no means certain. If it was certain, why would we hope for it? The theological virtue of hope is not so. Hope is essential for the Christian and yet what we hope for is certain. Abraham, the father of our faith, lived a life in which the only way he could fulfill his purpose was to live by faith and hope, specifically when the Lord promises him that he will bear a son around the age of 100. Instead of wavering at his dismal physical circumstances, Abraham hopes against hope and grows in faith, “Fully convinced that God was able to do what he promised” (Rom. 4:21). Faith (a rational power) and hope (a passional power) are the means by which Abraham fully commits himself to that disposition of hope: being convinced that God will do what He has promised.

    The Short Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald As Part of an Ongoing Series for the Lewis and Clark Library's Adult Education Progra

    The Short Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald As part of an ongoing series for The Lewis and Clark Library’s Adult Education program, Randall LeCocq is offering a class/discussion group on the short stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Classes will be held Wednesday mornings from 10 to 11:30 AM, in the Library’s large meeting room. A registration sheet is available at the Information Desk, which has handouts of the assigned readings. For the website: The class will look at Fitzgerald’s life and work, focusing on five of his most highly acclaimed short stories. Using these stories, we will examine some of Fitzgerald’s central themes: young love and the loss of illusion, the perils of wealth, and “emotional bankruptcy” which comes from fast living. The five short stories will take us through four phases of Fitzgerald’s life, from early success, through Expatriate life in Europe, to Zelda’s breakdown and his own “crack up,” and eventually to his own rejuvenation. We will conclude with Fitzgerald’s non-fiction essays commenting on the Jazz Age and Great Depression, and causes for his own decline. Randall LeCocq, a Helena resident, holds a Master’s Degree in Liberal Studies from Georgetown University, where he specialized in literature and art history. He has taught previous courses at the Library on the novels and short stories of Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner. Class Schedule: May 23: “Winter Dreams” (1922) May 30: “Absolution” (1924) June 6: “The Rich Boy” (1926) June 13: “The Rough Crossing” (1929) June 20: “Babylon Revisited” (1931), plus autobiographical excerpts from “My Lost City,” (1932) “Echoes of the Jazz Age,” (1931) and “The Crack Up.” (1936) .

The United States were launched towards an upswing of economic prosperity, which translated into social and cultural changes. As the 1920’s began, these shifts became particularly important for the development of the new role of women in society. Empowerment, financial independence and sexual liberation were some of the objectives to achieve by a section of the female community. Along these lines and as a way of self-expression, ‘women embraced the new freedoms, cutting their hair, applying makeup, and tossing out dowdy fashions of the past for shorter skirts and slinkier more formfitting attire’ (Time-Life 11).

"Whenever you feel like criticizing any one," he told me, "just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the ad- vantages that you've had." He didn't say any more but we've always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that.
