A lot of people have given a start to Marxism for your answer, but I'm giving a few as well.
As for your article on Marxism and _The Great Gatsby_, it will depend on what type of article you want. If you are in college then I recommend checking out your university's library website. It will depend on your school but most have some subscription to professional journals that will be useful (good ones might include Academic Search Primier, MLA International Bibliography or MLA Bibliography).
However, if you're in high school, try Google Scholar. It's a great place, though you may need to go to a college university to get some of the articles you need.
Good luck!

Hi Auragazer,
Marxism is the philosophy, social theory and political practice based on the works of Karl Marx, a 19th century German socialist philosopher, economist, journalist, and revolutionary. Marx, often in collaboration with Friedrich Engels, drew on G.W.F. Hegel's philosophy, the political economy of Adam Smith and David Ricardo, and theorists of 19th century French socialism, to develop a critique of society which he claimed was both scientific and revolutionary. This critique achieved its most systematic (albeit unfinished) expression in his most famous work, Capital: A Critique of Political Economy, more commonly known as Das Kapital. He believed that a revolution would be the catalyst in the transformation from capitalism to socialism. Since its inception and up to the present day, Marxism has been situated largely outside the political mainstream, although it has played a major role in history. Today, Marxist political parties of widely different sizes survive in most countries around the world.

Marxism is like when you say:
"Last night I shot an elephant in my pajamas....how he got in my pajamas I'll never know" Groucho Marx
