"his desire to transcend the world as it is, "
what does this mean? i dont get it, the quote it comes from is
‘his desire to transcend the world as it is, to move beyond it to something better. That something cannot be defined or pinned down. But the act of striving creates an intensity which, caraway suggests, bestows value on human experience.’
it a quote from the frontier on The Great Gatsby.
can you tell me what it means? im writing a really big essay, and im at a blank. thank you
