  • False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen
    False Authenticity in the Films of Woody Allen by Nicholas Vick November, 2012 Director of Thesis: Amanda Klein Major Department: English Woody Allen is an auteur who is deeply concerned with the visual presentation of his cityscapes. However, each city that Allen films is presented in such a glamorous light that the depiction of the cities is falsely authentic. That is, Allen's cityscapes are actually unrealistic recreations based on his nostalgia or stilted view of the city's culture. Allen's treatment of each city is similar to each other in that he strives to create a cinematic postcard for the viewer. However, differing themes and characteristics emerge to define Allen's optimistic visual approach. Allen's hometown of Manhattan is a place where artists, intellectuals, and writers can thrive. Paris denotes a sense of nostalgia and questions the power behind it. Allen's London is primarily concerned with class and the social imperative. Finally, Barcelona is a haven for physicality, bravado, and sex but also uncertainty for American travelers. Despite being in these picturesque and dynamic locations, happiness is rarely achieved for Allen's characters. So, regardless of Allen's dreamy and romanticized visual treatment of cityscapes and culture, Allen is a director who operates in a continuous state of contradiction because of the emotional unrest his characters suffer.

  • Hemingway's Mixed Drinks: an Examination of the Varied Representation of Alcohol Across the Author's Canon
    OLIPHANT, ASHLEY YARBROUGH, Ph.D. Hemingway’s Mixed Drinks: An Examination of the Varied Representation of Alcohol Across the Author’s Canon. (2007) Directed by Dr. Scott Romine. 214 pp. The purpose of this research was to determine how alcohol functions in four main texts: The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, The Old Man and the Sea and In Our Time. Because of Ernest Hemingway’s self-perpetuated image as a literary celebrity, scholars have historically used his public persona (and their diagnoses of his perceived alcoholism and other medical conditions) to speculate about its impact on his work. This study establishes the importance of first addressing the textual evidence relating to Hemingway’s crafting of symbols, characters and plots before the biography of the author enters the critical conversation. The project defines and examines important terms relevant to Hemingway’s representation of alcohol, including “saturated” and “dry” fiction, “situational dryness,” “communal consumption” and “restorative drinking.” When applicable, Hemingway’s characters are viewed within the context of their Lost Generation existence to challenge the critical notion that the post-war experience for the author’s characters (particularly those who consume alcohol) is static from text to text. Hemingway’s drinkers are explored instead as individuals with varied impetuses for imbibing (whether in moderation or in excess), and his non- drinkers and occasional consumers are examined at length to provide a complete picture of the role of consumption across the four works. The data taken from these considerations leads to the conclusion that contrary to the critical consensus, Hemingway’s depiction of alcohol sometimes reverses the dichotomous relationships it has long been believed to support.

  • An American Writer Ernest Hemingway's Life Style and Its
    НАУЧНИ ТРУДОВЕ НА РУСЕНСКИЯ УНИВЕРСИТЕТ - 2009, том 48, серия 6.3 An American writer Ernest Hemingway’s life style and its influence to his creative activity Ruslan Mammadov Abstract: This dissertation work gives a deeper view of the literary style and philosophy of Ernest Hemingway - the American short story writer, novelist, non-fiction writer, journalist, poet, and dramatist. Mainly, it focuses on the connection between the life of Ernest Hemingway and his literary works. He enjoyed life to the fullest and wanted to show that he could do whatever he wanted and it is truly obvious that these facts deeply influenced to his future career, his creativity and private life. This paper examines reflections of the author’s childhood on his works and the effects of women’s special role on his life and creativity and on the moral and ethical relativism of Hemingway's characters. It also studies the importance and the influence of World War I on his short stories and novels. What’s more, it studies his thirst for cultural knowledge which has left indelible signs in all of his works. The aim of this research is to find out essential features of the writer’s literary activity and to explain why the above coupled with the essential messages on the concept of wealth and goodness, portrayed in Hemingway's novels, are some of the reasons why his works have been rendered classics of the American literature. Key words: Ernest Hemingway INTRODUCTION Every man`s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how 1 he died that distinguishes one man from another.

  • Hemingway. Agridulce Strain Translated by Cristina Stolpovschich
    HEMINGWAY. AGRIDULCE STRAIN TRANSLATED BY CRISTINA STOLPOVSCHICH CARLOS HERRERO MARTÍNEZ INSTITUTO FRANKLIN–UAH Few writers have managed to unite in their person adjectives as disparate as egotistical, misogynistic, self-centered, arrogant, but, at the same time, combative, brave, lover of life and great writer. The life of Ernest Hemingway (Oak Park Illinois 1899 – Ketchum Idaho 1961) is full of contradictions that make him unique and that, to this day, continues to be one of the fundamental pillars on which the building of American literature is based. The son of a doctor father and an opera singer mother, he always lived on the edge of what life could give to an individual or, at least, that was the image he projected because, in the case of Hemingway, myth and man are difficult to separate. Journalist, he practiced soccer, hunting, boxing and deep-sea fishing. He was the first American wounded in combat on the Italian front during the First World War. He traveled all over the world, lived in Paris during the 1920s, visited Spain at that time, and later wrote for the NANA (North American Newspaper Alliance) the chronicles of the Spanish Civil War. He made safaris in Africa where he had two near-fatal plane crashes. He covered the D-Day, the Battle of the Bulge, and was twice decorated for military valor. He had four marriages and multiple lovers. He was a bad father of three children from two of his marriages. When he found himself as a shadow of what he was, he decided to commit suicide.

  • Lesbigay Identity As Commodity
    LesBiGay Identity as Commodity David M. Skover & Kellye Y. Testyt This Essay explores the deep dissonance that exists today between the validation of American LesBiGays in the commercial marketplace and their devaluation in politicaland legal arenas, and questions the failure of legal scholars and civil rights activists to account meaningfully for this dissonance in their theories andpractices. In America's popular culture, LesBiGay identities abound. In its po- litical culture, however, they emerge more tentatively. The commercial and entertainment industries increasingly commodify and celebrate LesBiGay identities. The courts and legislatures generally discount and condemn them. Thus, there is a deep dissonance between the validation of LesBiGay identities in the economic marketplace of items and ideas, and their de- valuation in the legal arena of rights and remedies. Such a dissonancefos- ters a fragmented sense of what LesBiGay identities are, and whether or how they are valued. Surprisingly, this schizoid treatment of LesBiGay identity is largely ignored or misunderstood by legal theorists and practitioners.Typically, they look primarily to politics and law for the paths to LesBiGay self- realization and social inclusion. The academy and activists have yet to ap- preciate that consumer-driven corporatism, commercial entrepreneurship, and the fetishes andfantasies of the mass media are unleashingpowerful culturalforces that will influence, for better or worse, the LesBiGay quest for liberty and equality. For if"the business ofAmerica is business," then surely the Americanizationof the LesBiGay identity is business, too. Copyright © 2002 David M. Skover and Kellye Y. Testy. t David Skover and Kellye Testy are friends and professorial colleagues at Seattle University School of Law.

  • How Exercise Saved Mariel Hemingway's Life
    How exercise saved Mariel Hemingway’s life The granddaughter of Ernest Hemingway tells us how coming from a family plagued by suicide encouraged her to get outside, and into nature, in order to cure her depression. Sep 10, 2013 James S. Fell Mariel Hemingway attending the 2013 Comic Con DC Entertainment and Warner Bros party celebrating the 75th anniversary of Superman held at the Hard Rock Hotel (Photo by AFF/EMPICS Entertainment/KEYSTONE Press). Mariel Hemingway grew up in a family where seven people lost their lives to suicide, including her grandfather Ernest. Suffering from depression for most of her life, Mariel, an Academy Award nominated actress, found solace — and her balance — in fitness. The author of several books about healthy living and fitness, her latest literary endeavor is co-authored with her partner Bobby Williams, an adventure athlete, stuntman and actor. Called Running With Nature, the book extols the virtues of adventurous pursuits (Bobby is a stunt man and eco-adventurer) and getting outside more often to disconnect from technology and reconnect with both nature, and yourself. I recently spoke with Mariel about her family’s troubled past, her own struggle with depression and how nature has healed her life. Q: What kind of athletic pursuits did you have as a child? Mariel Hemingway : I was an avid ski racer. I have always been an athletic and outdoorsy type — I started skiing when I was only two years old! I took up racing when I was seven and kept it up until I was 17. There was a lot of dry-land training as well with being a racer.

Mental illness within a family complicates matters exponentially. No one knows this better than actor-author- activist Mariel Hemingway. The granddaughter of Ernest FHemingway and sister of Margaux Hemingway —both of whom took their own lives—she is intimately familiar with the dark places that few of us are willing to go. In Mariel’s search for answers and quest for balance, she has developed a unique point of view—which she shares through her books and speaking engagements. With the release of the documentary Running from Crazy, she told her family’s complex story of mental illness, substance abuse and suicide and became part of a long-overdue national conversation.

  • WOODY ALLEN at BFI Southbank
    PRESS RELEASE: November 2011 11/78 Wise Cracks: The Comedies Of WOODY ALLEN at BFI Southbank BFI Southbank launches the New Year with an offering of thrills and laughter from Woody Allen, a most prolific filmmaker whose career has spanned just over six decades and more than 40 feature films, with a new film made almost every year. A celebration of his classic comedies will screen throughout January, including Extended Runs of both Zelig (1983) and the multi-Oscar-winning Hannah and Her Sisters (1986). This retrospective of films presents a timely reminder of his brilliant and exceptional career as a writer-director of comedy films, plus the importance of the comedy genre, as BFI Southbank presents the first London Comedy Film Festival at the end of the month. Allen’s career began by writing jokes for a local newspaper before progressing to stand-up comedy, then to writing gags and scripts for television and eventually screenwriting and appearing in films, until it was clear, to him, that he needed to direct films himself. This BFI season starts with Bananas (1971) and the sci-fi Sleeper (1973), where Allen’s trademark characteristics of a nervous, somewhat pessimistic New York Jew, with a sharp and self- deprecating banter were first established. Sleeper was the first partnering of Allen and Diane Keaton, who would go on to star in the period piece Love and Death (1975) and the Allen classics Annie Hall (1977), for which he won Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay, and Manhattan (1979) – the latter an unforgettable tribute to New York.

  • Hunting for Hemingway
    Hunting for Hemingway By KM Churchill “Where a man feels at home, outside of where he’s born, is where he’s meant to go.” -Ernest Hemingway “ No air stirs the surface of the cool blue swimming pool in the gardens of the Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum. w Nor is the calico cat lying sprawled on Papa’s rose colored couch in the living room ruffled by the tourists who reach out to stroke its fur. It’s 9:15 am on a Monday morning and the museum is already bustling with the hushed murmurs of the literary faithful who have come to pay homage at the home of one of America’s most dashing historical figures, Ernest “Papa” Hemingway. This gracious Spanish Colonial style house in the Old Town, Key West is where Hemingway lived with his second wife, Pauline, and their two young sons from 1931 to 1940.The pale blue painted rooms are large and welcoming, with arched floor to ceiling French windows, all thrown open to let in what remains of the cool morning air. We have come early to avoid the crowds and, wanting to absorb the feeling of the house, we decide to skip the guided tour and wander through the rooms ourselves, looking and listening for literary ghosts. Petting cats here and there as we go. Hemingway loved cats and there are cats everywhere: cats on the furniture, cat statues in the sitting room, cat figurines in the bedroom, even cat magnets in the museum store. But the cats on the grounds are rather unusual in that many of them have six toes (polydactyl), and are possibly direct descendents of Snowball, the white six-toed cat that Papa brought home for his sons – there is even a charming photo of the boys holding Snowball in the garden.
