    the '30s; the general strength of the biography could have been enhanced by greater attention to the Italian stories and a more subtle understanding of Cheever's connection between appearances and moral realities. But Ms. Cheever's treatment of her father's artistic life is both respectful and illuminating. It deepens our understanding of a writer whose central artistic vision was "to celebrate a world that lies spread out around us like a bewildering and stupendous dream." James Nagel, Ed. ERNEST HEMINGWAY: THE WRITER IN CONTEXT Madison: The University of Wisconsin Press, 1984. Pp. xvii + 246. $27.50 Reviewed by Raymond S. Nelson Ernest Hemingway: The Writer in Context is "a commemorative record of three days of informed and engaging conversation about Ernest Hemingway "which took place at North­ eastern University in May of 1982" (p.x). The Hemingway Society and the John F. Kennedy Library cooperated with the University to make it a memorable event. The book is divided into four parts, Personal Comments and Reminiscences, The Craft of Composition, Interpretations Biographical and Critical, and Relationships with Other Writ­ ers. The last two sections are about twice as long as the first two. The first section contains reminiscences from Charles Scribner, Jr., about Hemingway's long association with Scribner's Publishing Company. Scribner praises Hemingway's loyalty to the company, particularly to his father and grandfather and, of course, Max Perkins. Patrick Hemingway shared his memories of sailing on the "Pilar" during the early days of World War II, and comments on how his father transmuted such materials to the fiction of Islands in the Stream.

  • Ernest Hemingway Global American Modernist
    Ernest Hemingway Global American Modernist Lisa Tyler Sinclair Community College, USA Iconic American modernist Ernest Hemingway spent his entire adult life in an interna- tional (although primarily English-speaking) modernist milieu interested in breaking with the traditions of the past and creating new art forms. Throughout his lifetime he traveled extensively, especially in France, Spain, Italy, Cuba, and what was then British East Africa (now Kenya and Tanzania), and wrote about all of these places: “For we have been there in the books and out of the books – and where we go, if we are any good, there you can go as we have been” (Hemingway 1935, 109). At the time of his death, he was a global celebrity recognized around the world. His writings were widely translated during his lifetime and are still taught in secondary schools and universities all over the globe. Ernest Hemingway was born 21 July 1899, in Oak Park, Illinois, also the home of Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the most famous modernist architects in the world. Hemingway could look across the street from his childhood home and see one of Wright’s innovative designs (Hays 2014, 54). As he was growing up, Hemingway and his family often traveled to nearby Chicago to visit the Field Museum of Natural History and the Chicago Opera House. Because of the 1871 fire that destroyed structures over more than three square miles of the city, a substantial part of Chicago had become a clean slate on which late nineteenth-century and early twentieth-century architects could design what a modern city should look like.
