In the fall of this year, the Community Library in Ketchum and the University of Idaho will host public programs on the life and work of Hemingway (see sidebar page 4). In preparation for this issue of Idaho Humanities, we asked IHC Board member Volume XV, No. 2 and devoted Hemingway aficionado Martin L.

Architecture. Friday afternoon trips in a school bus around Los Angeles to see such amazing structures as the Gamble House and Frank Lloyd Wright’s Ennis House hooked me long before I had the guts to admit it to my circle of college buddies. Architecture seemed so intellectual, so civilized, so creative, especially to an economics major. Six years ago, when this latent interest crashed into a need to create a meaningful, post-Advanced Placement exam project for my U.S. History students at Timberline High School, I decided Idaho Falls aviator Pete Hill poses with Ernest Hemingway at the Ketchum to create a tribute to Professor house, 1959.

These outstanding 538 young Americans have challenged themselves and made lasting contributions to local communities across this great nation. This is our largest class of Gold Medalists to date! The Gold Medal Ceremony is the culmination of a long journey for our awardees. For each participant the journey was unique, but one that likely included many highs and lows. The Congressional Award program was designed to instill a wide range of life skills and attributes that are necessary to navigate and overcome obstacles on the path to success - both in the classroom and beyond. And now that each young person has met these challenges and attained their goals, we hope they will continue to amaze and inspire us by pursuing their passions, utilizing their talents, and demonstrating an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place.

  • “Come Let Us Build a Monument to Ezra.”
    Ghent University Faculty of Arts and Philosophy Academic year: 2014-2015 (August) “Come Let Us Build a Monument to Ezra.” Imagist Affinities between the Poetics of Ezra Pound and the Poems of Ernest Hemingway: A Modernist Friendship and a Quest for Truth. Supervisor: Dr. Kate Macdonald Master dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of “Master in de Vergelijkende Moderne Letterkunde” by Birgit Van Asch. Acknowledgements First of all I would like to thank my supervisor, Kate Macdonald. I am convinced that I could not have wished for better guidance. Knowing that she was always there to immediately answer my questions or willing to proofread chapters, I felt reassured and there was nothing more motivational than reading her expert comments on my writings. Secondly, I also owe great gratitude to my parents. For months, they allowed me to use this dissertation as an excuse for every time I burst out into tears or reacted overly annoyed at things they did or said. I want to thank them for their inexhaustible support, for always believing in me and pushing me to my limits ever since I was a child. If it weren’t for them, I would not be the student and person I am now. And although I was never able to convince my mother that literature was by no means inferior to linguistics, she has always allowed me to chase my own dreams. Also all of my friends deserve their spot here, for letting me breathe again when things got on top of me. Especially my best friend and roommate Antje has proven to be irreplaceable: thank you for doing the dishes, thank you for your supportive texts and thank you, just for being you.

Nevertheless, although he is working in a crea­ tive genre as opposed to an expository one, the writer of fiction without doubt leaves a portion of his real self among the many words that he spends portraying imaginary happenings. For this reason, in The Old Man and the Sea, I am able to examine. autobiographical metaphors that reveal Ernest Hemingway's aesthetics as intimated by the symbolic words and actions of Santiago as the fisherman-artist. The existence of such an element in The Old Man has been pub­ licly recognized by a handful of critics, but each of their published comments is short. Therefore, I have endeavored to amplify what up to now has received only cursory treatment. I wish to express appreciation to the members of my dissertation committee. The main burden of supervising my project was ably handled by my committee chairman, Dr.
