For Anderson the play marked the culmination of his efforts at playwriting. He had adapted his finest collection of stories for the stage, and it would now be the responsibility of the theatre and particularly of his producer, Jasper Deeter, to see that the play succeeded. Deeter produced the play at the Hedgerow Theatre in 1937. Anderson had no doubts concerning the merits of his play. For Christopher Sergel, however, Sherwood Anderson's reading was only a beginning.

  • The Double Life of Veronique in Jordan and Hemingway—On the Autobiographic Implications in for Whom the Bell Tolls*
    Sino-US English Teaching, March 2016, Vol. 13, No. 3, 225-232 doi:10.17265/1539-8072/2016.03.009 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Double Life of Veronique in Jordan and Hemingway—On the Autobiographic Implications in For Whom the Bell Tolls* WANG Chao-fan, MENG Fan-mao Linyi University, Linyi, China Ernest Hemingway is one of the greatest American novelists. His For Whom the Bell Tolls, a novel on Spanish Civil War, is generally regarded as “his most ambitious artistic endeavor and a heroic epic of the 20th century American literature”. The protagonist, Jordan, is a brave, unselfish, and stressful fighter for fascist, who is the more mature epitome of Ernest Hemingway in the reality. It is an example of application of “meta-fiction”. Both of their views on war change from being pessimistic to being optimistic; both Hemingway and Jordan are the heroes of “Grace under Pressure” and both of them start to care for the society and love others. Keywords: Hemingway, Jordan, war, epitome, meta-fiction Introduction I was shocked and moved by For Whom the Bell Tolls, written by Ernest Hemingway, not only for the philanthropism and perseverance of Jordan during the process of bombing bridge, but also because of his unselfishness and calmness when he chose to sacrifice himself for saving his comrade-in-arms and the girl he loved in the end of the battle. Ernest Hemingway is regarded as a thoughtful and smart artist, a literary giant, an adventurer, and a stylistic genius in American history who won Nobel Prize in 1954. He was born on July 21, 1899, in Oak Park, Illinois; Ernest Miller Hemingway is the second child to Clarence Edmonds Hemingway and Grace Hall Hemingway.

Language: English Access: Open for research Administrative Information Acquisition: Purchases, 1968-1973 (R4498, R5102, R6030) Processed by: Michael Ramsey, 2010 Repository: The University of Texas at Austin, Harry Ransom Center Anderson, Sherwood, 1876-1941 Biographical Sketch Sherwood Anderson was born in Camden, Ohio, on September 13, 1876, as the third of seven children. His parents, Irwin M. and Emma Anderson, moved from town to town frequently after the failure of Anderson's father's business. Anderson attended school only intermittently in order to help his family's finances by working a variety of odd jobs including stable boy, house painter, and newsboy. He left school at the age of 14. His father (a former Union soldier) worked as a harness maker and house painter after the family finally settled down in Clyde, Ohio. Anderson moved to Chicago, Illinois, at the age of 17, where he worked in a factory by day and was a business student by night. He joined the National Guard in 1895 at the age of 19 and fought in Cuba during the Spanish-American war. After his service ended, Anderson returned to Ohio and finished a final year of schooling at Wittenberg College in Springfield. Anderson moved around Ohio frequently until 1904 when he married Cornelia Lane, a woman of good education and background, and fathered three children.

Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another.

  • Publishing Sherwood Anderson's “Group of Tales”
    Publishing Sherwood Anderson’s “Group of Tales”: The Textual Presentations of the Winesburg Stories and the Modernist Legacy of Winesburg, Ohio Matthew James Vechinski Chapter Seven, “Publishing Sherwood Anderson’s ‘Group of Tales’: The Textual Presentations of the Winesburg Stories and the Modernist Legacy of Winesburg, Ohio,” explores the printed texts through which readers encountered the Winesburg stories, including the periodicals that published Sherwood Anderson’s short fiction prior to its appearance in book form and the various editions of the book released by different publishers. It considers how the audience of the Seven Arts, a magazine committed to defining the new American literature, and the socialist magazine The Masses would have responded to Anderson’s depictions of class, alienation, and longing. Then the essay examines how book designs across editions of Winesburg, Ohio frame the contents and in turn influence the reception of the stories and the volume as a whole. The complete publication history of Winesburg, Ohio explored here illustrates how Anderson’s innovative stories received initial attention and then became established classics of modernist fiction. How Publishing Makes an American Modernist Classic The genre of the book Winesburg, Ohio has always attracted the interest of scholars of modernist literature. It may be read as a collection of stories, and indeed many of the tales have been published separately in anthologies of classic American short fiction. When read together, one recognizes across the stories a consistent narrative tone, a single setting, and a cast of characters that appear throughout the fiction. The hero of Winesburg, Ohio is George Willard, though his presence comes and goes throughout the tales as the witness to the strange and isolated lives of the small town Ohioans.

  • Chronology of Michigan History 1618-1701
    CHRONOLOGY OF MICHIGAN HISTORY 1618-1701 1618 Etienne Brulé passes through North Channel at the neck of Lake Huron; that same year (or during two following years) he lands at Sault Ste. Marie, probably the first European to look upon the Sault. The Michigan Native American population is approximately 15,000. 1621 Brulé returns, explores the Lake Superior coast, and notes copper deposits. 1634 Jean Nicolet passes through the Straits of Mackinac and travels along Lake Michigan’s northern shore, seeking a route to the Orient. 1641 Fathers Isaac Jogues and Charles Raymbault conduct religious services at the Sault. 1660 Father René Mesnard establishes the first regular mission, held throughout winter at Keweenaw Bay. 1668 Father Jacques Marquette takes over the Sault mission and founds the first permanent settlement on Michigan soil at Sault Ste. Marie. 1669 Louis Jolliet is guided east by way of the Detroit River, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. 1671 Simon François, Sieur de St. Lusson, lands at the Sault, claims vast Great Lakes region, comprising most of western America, for Louis XIV. St. Ignace is founded when Father Marquette builds a mission chapel. First of the military outposts, Fort de Buade (later known as Fort Michilimackinac), is established at St. Ignace. 1673 Jolliet and Marquette travel down the Mississippi River. 1675 Father Marquette dies at Ludington. 1679 The Griffon, the first sailing vessel on the Great Lakes, is built by René Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, and lost in a storm on Lake Michigan. ➤ La Salle erects Fort Miami at the mouth of the St.
