Three Paths to Religious Integration in Ernest Hemingway's THREE PATHS TO RELIGIOUS INTEGRATION IN ERNEST HEMINGWAY’S WAR FICTION A DISSERTATION IN English and Humanities Consortium Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by TIMOTHY JAMES PINGELTON B.A., University of Missouri-Kansas City, 1994 M.F.A., San Diego State University, 1997 Kansas City, Missouri 2018 © 2018 TIMOTHY JAMES PINGELTON ALL RIGHTS RESERVED THREE PATHS TO RELIGIOUS INTEGRATION IN ERNEST HEMINGWAY’S WAR FICTION Timothy James Pingelton, Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT My dissertation studies religiosity in Ernest Hemingway’s war fiction in terms of how his soldier characters connect to the divine. The means to understanding this connection is in refining how the characters express the utility of this connection and how these features fit into larger structural ideals. I argue that the wartime characters integrate with the divine through various methods: by contact with nature, by enacting a ritual, or by embodying Christian manliness. I base my dissertation on relevant phenomenological theories but also considers broader structural-functional theories, and I form the approach on structuralism in that I look at both single works and at the war fiction as a whole as well as looking for connections between literature and culture. Furthermore, I look to the theories of Northrop Frye in analyzing this literature because Frye’s structuralism allows for genre-bending oeuvres such as Hemingway’s. I argue that, contrary to much literary criticism, the Hemingway wartime protagonists are theists who seek the divine in times ii of conflict, but, unlike the notion of “no atheists in the foxholes,” these characters harbor their religiosity not situationally but throughout their lives. I conclude by bringing together elements of Ernest Hemingway’s biography with mythoi of connection to nature, enacting rituals, and embodying Christian manliness to derive at a rough categorization of this religiosity. iii APPROVAL PAGE The faculty listed below, appointed by the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies, have examined a dissertation titled “Three Paths To Religious Integration In Ernest Hemingway’s War Fiction,” presented by Timothy James Pingelton, candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy degree, and certify that in their opinion it is worthy of acceptance.

Then he looked up at the sky. There were big white clouds in it. He touched the palm of his hand against the pine needles where he lay and he touched the bark of the pine truck that he lay behind. (Ernest Hemingway, FWBT 471) These are the concluding images of Ernest Hemingway’s 1940 novel For Whom the Bell Tolls. When I first read the novel’s ending pages, I knew that, upon closing the back cover, I would flip the book over and re-enter the world of Robert Jordan, Maria, Pilar and the others hiding out in a cave in the Sierra de Guadarrama in central Spain. On the novel’s official publication day (21 Oct 1940), New York Times book critic Ralph Thompson wrote “For Whom the Bell Tolls is a tremendous piece of work. […] Mr. Hemingway has always been the writer, but he has never been the master that he is in For Whom the Bell Tolls” (Thompson). So there is some suggestion that my awe of the book’s artistry was not limited to myself. I have carried for years Robert Jordan’s act of communing with nature on that pine-covered hillside as he faces imminent death—visualizing it, thinking about it, and researching its meaning and significance. I studied Ernest Hemingway’s life and visited a few of the places he lived; I (carefully) handled his unpublished works, notes, and liquor purchase receipts. Then I turned to his critics and relevant scholarship in literature, religious studies, and philosophy. My conclusion, presented in this dissertation, demonstrates that the warrior protagonists in Hemingway’s war oeuvre connect to the divine in three manners: by connecting with nature, through ritual, or by exhibiting viii Christian manliness (as it was understood in Hemingway’s time). These new connections force new interpretations of Hemingway’s war writing and works of other modernists. They are the key to understanding religiosity in the war fiction of Ernest Hemingway; these connections mitigate and ameliorate the seeming disconnects between individual and society, atheist and monotheist, youth and maturity. This dissertation, titled Three Paths to Religious Integration in Ernest Hemingway’s War Fiction, argues that the Hemingway soldier character, in times of tumult, seeks integration with the divine by integrating with nature. The second path to religious integration is by enacting ritual that move the warriors from a state of banality to one of enlightenment. The third means to integrating with the divine is by living a life of Christian manliness (also termed muscular Christianity). The result of this integration, through whatever means, is connection with an omnipotent and immutable force, the union which provides the soldier the comfort of a reality devoid of deceitful imagination or trite dogma. This is a study of religiosity in Ernest Hemingway’s war fiction in terms of how his warrior characters connect to the divine. Their experiences link them with something profound and immutable for the purposes of solace and redemption. The purpose of the biographical chapter in this dissertation is to point to the deep empathy Hemingway seems to have had with his soldier characters. The inclusion of phenomenological aspects (meaning how both the author and his characters actually experience religiosity, á la Rudolph Otto and Mircea Eliade) may seem to stray from the more sociological approaches to religion (macro-level structuralism á la Émile Durkheim and Victor Turner) also detailed in this dissertation. While the premises of Durkheim and Turner are ix certainly relevant to this study and they are not disunited from the micro-level experience of Hemingway and his characters, Hemingway’s depictions of his soldiers transformative experiences (via nature, ritual, or embodying Christian manliness) speak to the apparent empathy the author carried for his soldiers. A starting point for discussing my use of the term “religion” can begin with Émile Durkheim as defined in his landmark work The Elementary Forms of Religious Life (1912): “A religion is a unified system of beliefs and practices relative to sacred things, that is to say, things set apart and forbidden—beliefs and practices which unite into one single moral community called a Church, all those who adhere to them” (Durkheim 46). The kind of religion practiced by the Hemingway soldier protagonist is certainly not the primitive religion

  • Notas Sobre El Estilo El Último Entuerto Que Conviene Desfacer Es El Que Habla De King Como De Un Cineasta “Sin Estilo”
    Notas sobre el estilo El último entuerto que conviene desfacer es el que habla de King como de un cineasta “sin estilo”. Si por estilo se entiende llamar la atención sobre la cámara, forzar los ángulos, montar aparatosos encuadres y hacer notar el trabajo del director, King es, en efecto, un director sin estilo. Algunas de sus películas, como Deep Waters, adoptan además una forma visual aparentemente anodina, que puede pasar por impersonal si a la carencia de atractivos externos se une una extrema funcionalidad narrativa, como sucede en dos de sus obras fundamentales, I’d Climb the Highest Mountain y Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellie. Un examen detallado de estas y otras películas revela la existencia de una personalidad cinematográfica muy acusada, aunque no llamativa ni evidente. Más que afanarse en la búsqueda de un estilo propio, King intentó desarrollar a lo largo de su carrera un lenguaje que se correspondiese, visual y narrativamente, con los modos de sus personajes, por lo general inteligentes y discretos, observadores y dinámicos, inconformistas y sensibles a los cambios que se producen en su entorno. Conforme avanzaba su obra, películas y personajes fueron haciéndose progresivamente más complejos, sin que King violentara por ello su estilo, cada vez más refinado y transparente, permeable a los avances técnicos (el sonido, el color, la pantalla ancha) pero no a las modas ni a retóricas pasajeras. Tal vez por ello, o por una fidelidad a su propia visión, las bases del estilo visual de King apenas experimentaron variaciones significativas a lo largo del tiempo, de hecho Tol’able David podría haberse rodado en 1951 y I’d Climb the Highest Mountain treinta años antes sin que el espectador hubiera notado el menor desajuste.

JACKSON COLLEGE OF GRADUATE STUDIES Edmond, Oklahoma Hemingway: Insights on Military Leadership A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Of MASTER OF ARTS IN ENGLISH By Shawn Dillon Edmond, Oklahoma 2014 Abstract of Thesis University of Central Oklahoma Edmond, Oklahoma NAME: Shawn Dillon TITLE OF THESIS: Hemingway: Insights on Military Leadership DIRECTOR OF THESIS: Dr. G.S. Lewis PAGES: 86 The literature of Ernest Hemingway is rich with military lessons derived from his lifetime of proximity to war and his understanding of soldiers and leaders at all levels as presented through his characters. Hemingway wrote two significant military works that treat deeply the psyche and behavior of soldiers in war: For Whom the Bell Tolls presented a guerilla band led by an American professor named Robert Jordan, and exposed the different types of junior and senior leaders, as well as an ideal soldier in Anselmo, the old, untrained partisan. Across the River and Into the Trees was equally rich in military insights, at a much higher level of command, through the bitter musings of Colonel Cantwell. Hemingway’s fiction represented and reproduced the detailed awareness he had of soldiers and leaders, good and bad. He was born with the natural instinct to lead, and through his proximity to men performing humanity’s most vaunted of tests, he produced a body of fiction that can serve collectively as a manual for understanding soldiers, terrain, and military

  • Joyce's Dubliners and Hemingway's in Our Time
    37q i 0 JOYCE'S DUBLINERS AND HEMINGWAY'S IN OUR TIME: A CORRELATION THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Kim Martin Mayo, B. A. Denton, Texas December, 1986 Mayo, Kim M., Joyze's Dubliners and Hemingway's In Our Time: A Correlation. Master of Arts (English), December, 1986. 109 pp., works cited, 50 titles. One rarely sees the names James Joyce and Ernest Hemingway together in the same sentence. Their obvious differences in writing styles, nationalities, and lifestyles prevent any automatic comparison from being made. But when one compares their early short story collections, Dubliners and In Our Time, many surprisingly similarities appear. Both are collections of short stories unified in some way, written by expatriates who knew each other in Paris. A mood of despair and hopelessness pervades the stories as the characters are trapped in the human condition. By examining the commonalities found in their methods of organization, handling of point of view, attitudes toward their subjects, stylistic techniques, and modes of writing, one is continually brought back to the differences between Joyce and Hemingway in each of these areas. For it is their differences that make these artists important; how each author chose to develop his craft gives him a significant place in literature.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2019 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines integral, challenging contemporary poetry and fiction, and its relationship to notions of the criminal in multiple guises. The present focus on “criminal” excavates not only its literal meaning—the nature of crime, and its specific relation to penal law—but also brings to light how the “criminal” affects the construction of fiction and poetry, and the lives of various individuals (speakers) within the chosen texts. Intricately tied with the criminal are practices that transgress, and this study will also locate specific creations where poets and novelists construct transgressions that challenge contemporary ideas of narrative and poetic modes.

The more specific focus was given on how the advertisement and the parody perceive legitimacy and in which ways they are building or questioning it. Methodology and the Analytical Framework The study utilized a theoretical framework combining legitimacy and CSR advertising theories. The framework considers legitimacy to be the ultimate goal of CSR, and indicates how legitimacy has an influence on what kind of responsibilities the companies should address. In addition, it focuses on advertising of corporate social initiatives, such as the Coming Together campaign, and discusses the different factors influencing on consumer scepticism. The data of the study, two videos, was analysed with the qualitative methods of systemic functional multimodal discourse analysis, since it enabled to reveal the socio-political connections of the videos instead of focusing only on their content.

Reflecting the author s commodified persona, Hemingway s bi- ography always enjoyed a special status, but the confluence of his life and work reached a new intensity when an edited portion of The Garden of Eden appeared in 1986. Hemingway's manuscripts for the novel, expansive but unfinished at his death in 1961, showed the depth of his interest in homosexuality and the mutability of gender.1 As published, The Garden of Eden describes a young American couple on their honeymoon in Spain and the south of France in the 1920s; David is a writer distracted by his wife's exploration of masculinity, racialized fantasy, and lesbianism.2 Early in the narrative, Catherine surprises her husband with a haircut "cropped as short as a boy's" (14) explaining "I'm a girl, But now I'm a boy too" (15).
