https://muse.jhu.edu/article/989221
<p></p>
Among the many emotional and stylistic issues Ernest Hemingway’s 1929 A Farewell to Arms confronts over the course of its 41 chapters is how to convey grief when words alone will not suffice. By the final chapter, Lieutenant Frederic Henry has lost both his beloved Catherine and their infant child. His response to the doctor who attends to the child’s stillborn delivery and then informs him of Catherine’s death from multiple hemorrhages is simply, “There’s nothing to say” (332). To convey grief when there is nothing left to say would take a radical approach to storytelling. Hemingway learned this approach while on staff at the Kansas City Star, where he worked as a cub reporter in the fall of 1917 shortly after

<p></p>
In Green Hills of Africa, Ernest Hemingway is asked what harms a writer and responds, “Politics, women, drink, money, and ambition. And the lack of politics, women, drink, money, and ambition” (28). This vague and ambiguous response hints that successful writers should possess a good balance of these elements. Indeed, many scholars acknowledge ambition, politics, women, and alcohol as indispensable elements in both Hemingway’s life and his literature.1 However, perhaps due to the prevailing bold image of the writer, shaped by his participation in the two world wars and the Spanish Civil War as well as his hunting and fishing adventures in Africa and the Caribbean accompanied by his wives and female friends

Photo: Amat.On the afternoon of 28 June 1924, preparations are being made to assemble the ticket booth in the north-west corner of the main square in Pamplona, the Plaza de la Constitución, where tickets for each bullfight will go on sale at eight o’clock on the morning of the corrida. The instructions for use are direct: “A ticket belongs not to the strongest nor to the rudest, but to the one who arrives first” (Itoiz).1It is 87 degrees when Ernest Hemingway steps through the revolving doors of the Hotel La Perla in the square, but it is a short stroll in the shade under the arcade of the plaza, and as he walks past the Bar Torino, the Hotel Quintana, crosses

Could one remaining cause have been exposure to toxic heavy metals? Hemingway exhibited symptoms of

https://muse.jhu.edu/article/989225
<p></p>
The first part of my article, “Reading Ernest Hemingway in Algeria,” published in the Spring 2019 issue of The Hemingway Review focuses on how Ernest Hemingway was well-received in Algeria and how he has left his positive imprint on Algerian culture in a variety of ways. To make this study more comprehensive and more empirical, I decided to write part two that seeks to investigate whether or not Hemingway is currently read, taught, and well-received in Algerian Universities. In doing so, seventy surveys were administered to teachers and students with such degrees as BA, MA, and PhD belonging to the following Universities, whose primary languages vary—English, French, and Arabic—with specialities in disciplines

https://muse.jhu.edu/article/989226
<p></p>
A single question has long overshadowed Hemingway studies: What to do with The Wound? Many critics take Hemingway’s determining trauma to be his physical wounding at Fossalta in July of 1918. Others locate it in his father’s depression and suicide, or in heavy drinking during repeated concussions, or his being dressed like a girl in his early years. Genetic accounts of Hemingway’s genius typically assume the shaping power of a wound.In his new book, Michael Thurston argues that what matters about a wound is how one takes it and centers his inquiry around a brilliant revaluation of the dynamic between Brett and Jake.“Of all the ways to be wounded” (LOA 395), Jake thinks, as he looks at himself in Chapter Four of The

As Ernest Hemingway’s fiction begins to emerge from copyright, students, literature teachers, scholars, and general readers are welcoming editions of his works that include ancillary materials that provide background and analysis helpful to understanding the work. This Norton Critical Edition of A Farewell to Arms follows in the series tradition by including a variety of excellent readings, coupled with the text in one convenient volume. Editor Marc Dudley provides a comprehensive introduction to the novel, particularly useful for the classroom instructor. In twenty-five pages without subheads, Dudley chronicles Hemingway’s early life, literary and artistic influences, writing history and style, and the immediate

The Norton Library continues to publish inexpensive classroom editions of major literary works, with measured annotations and occasional appendix materials geared toward students. Mark Cirino’s newest edition of Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms (1929) is an important contribution not only to the series but also to Hemingway studies for what it achieves in a student edition. Cirino’s introduction is a tour-de force, and his notes are extensive without being obstructive, since the novel requires at least passing knowledge of several things: the Italian language, the Great War, Italy as a country, and military history, etc. Further, Hemingway’s many cultural references are illuminated, as are his in-jokes and
