How is my ninja essay?

Black as the night. Swift as an eagle. Strong like an ox. These are the characteristics of a ninja. Ninjas are the primary theme of our Great Gatsby presentation. My group and I attempted to use the ninja theme to create an alternate setting for out scene. The scene we were assigned was the death of Myrtle. In this scene, Myrtle is found dead at Wilson’s Garage because of a hit and run. We found out that the death of Myrtle was caused by Gatsby’s yellow car. The driver, however, was never mentioned in the book. When Nick and his friends arrive at the accident, Tom and Wilson both are saddened at the sight of Myrtle’s lifeless body, and with this scene, we choice to do the ninja theme.


When we chose the ninja setting, we discovered many changes. The first change I noticed was the attire. Instead of being a 1920’s look, we had a black clothes. Ninjas are famous for their black attire. They are usually covered entirely in black cloth except a thin strip across the eyes so they can see. We successfully dressed like a ninja.


Another difference between the original setting and our setting was the difference in commerce. In the 1920’s people who had money usually didn’t have much political power. However, people in Asia, the place where ninjas originated, were a lot different. People with money in Asia usually had a lot of power. People’s political power classes were determined by their income. Since ninjas did not have a lot of political power, it meant that they were not very wealthy. So with our presentation we were not allowed to have an upper class type of setting.


Finally, when using the ninja theme we were not allowed to use motor vehicles of any kind. During the age of the ninja, cars and other means of motor transportation did not exist. Because of the this, we could not use the original death scene as proposed in the Great Gatsby. So instead of hitting Myrtle with a car, we used a fight scene. Hand to hand combat was often used by ninjas. Ninjas were usually masters at different types of Martial Arts. Some of the types of martial arts that we used were karate, kung fu, and tae-kwon-do. These martial arts were an important technique used by ninjas.


As you can see, the setting we used was ninja. The ninja theme effected the original clothing style, wealth and the death of myrtle. The ninja theme was most effective when it came to choosing an alternate setting of The Great Gatsby.
