Abstract:
"Unlike Paris, with its established community and conventions, in Spain, Hemingway began to rethink expatriation as a form of authentic cultural engagement rather than merely a translation of American values into a European setting (as was the case in Paris). Hemingway highlights the difference in these two forms of expatriation in his first Spanish-set novel, The Sun Also Rises, which centers on an American expatriate who enters into a local community in Spain and his fellow expatriates who invade and corrupt the local culture."
