Abstract: This study delves into the linguacultural intricacies embedded in the
literary tapestry of F. Scott Fitzgerald's works, exploring the symbiotic relationship
between language and culture in his masterpieces. Fitzgerald, a quintessential figure of
the Jazz Age, intricately wove the socio-cultural nuances of his time into his narratives,
reflecting the dynamic interplay between language and the evolving cultural milieu of
the early 20th century. The research employs a multifaceted approach, combining
literary analysis with linguistic inquiry to unravel the layers of linguistic devices and
cultural references present in Fitzgerald's iconic novels and short stories. By
scrutinizing his use of language, idioms, and dialects, this study aims to unearth the
subtle yet profound ways in which Fitzgerald captured the essence of the Roaring
Twenties.
