Lived the life of a celebrity Minimalist Hemingway employed a distinctive style which drew comment from many critics At the beginning of his career Hemingway did not give way to lengthy geographical and psychological description. Though later he used he vividly described nature. His style had been said to lack substance because he avoids direct statements and descriptions of emotion. Later he began to write more deeply into emotions, mostly discussing death and providing a detailed picture in the readers mind Style seen as direct and simple He used his senses as the center for his writing Believed the mind was “treacherous and abstract” Wrote in an unconventional style, with the problems of war, violence and death as their themes, presenting a symbolic interpretation of life.

Many readers would agree with Earl Rovit and Gerry Brenner's ass~rtion that Jack "breaks the code in betting against himself" (45) or with Phillips G. and Rosemary R.

  • 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.

The general trend of criticism has emphasized the parallelisms between style and theme or between narrative style and the narrator’s state of mind. Philip Young argued that Hemingway’s technique of understatement reflected “the rigid restraint the man felt if he were to survive,” and that the controlled narrative style fitted the author’s subject, i.e. life, which was to be “constantly forced under the most intense and rigorous control, for it is savage and can get out of hand” (Young 208-209).

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.

  • HEMINGWAY's SHORT WORKS and LONG-STANDING INFLUENCE on LITERATURE: MEN WITHOUT WOMEN by Katelyn Wilder Senior Honors Thesis
    HEMINGWAY’S SHORT WORKS AND LONG-STANDING INFLUENCE ON LITERATURE: MEN WITHOUT WOMEN by Katelyn Wilder Senior Honors Thesis Appalachian State University Submitted to the Department of English in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts May, 2020 Approved by: __________________________________________________________________ Carl Eby, Thesis Director __________________________________________________________________ William Atkinson, Reader __________________________________________________________________ Michael Wilson, Reader __________________________________________________________________ Jennifer Wilson, Departmental Honors Director Wilder 1 INTRODUCTION Ernest Hemingway is among the most influential American writers of the 20th century, if not the most considering his title of the literary “voice of the Lost Generation” (Muller 8). However, today his innovations often go overlooked by critics and students of literature. It is hard to see an artist with fresh eyes through traditions and techniques they -- not necessarily created-- but popularized. Therefore, this thesis will seek to analyze one of Hemingway’s most successful and neglected short story collections, Men Without Women. Many of Hemingway’s ​ ​ craft and style techniques in Men Without Women have become norms of American fiction, so ​ ​ much that readers unfamiliar with the traditions that came before Hemingway may no longer even recognize them as techniques. In Men Without Women, each work focuses on at least one ​ ​ specific crafting element: these elements overall serve as a throughline of two strands (or theses) throughout the collection, and these strands seem to parallel throughout the work, until the final piece where they collide and reveal a deeper new approach to not only writing and craft, but the idea of a collection itself. Therefore, a major theme of the collection is poioumenon.

  • AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES
    AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES CLARK (Under the Direction of James Nagel) ABSTRACT American Literary Minimalism stands as an important yet misunderstood stylistic movement. It is an extension of aesthetics established by a diverse group of authors active in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that includes Amy Lowell, William Carlos Williams, and Ezra Pound. Works within the tradition reflect several qualities: the prose is “spare” and “clean”; important plot details are often omitted or left out; practitioners tend to excise material during the editing process; and stories tend to be about “common people” as opposed to the powerful and aristocratic. While these descriptors and the many others that have been posited over the years are in some ways helpful, the mode remains poorly defined. The core idea that differentiates American Minimalism from other movements is that prose and poetry should be extremely efficient, allusive, and implicative. The language in this type of fiction tends to be simple and direct. Narrators do not often use ornate adjectives and rarely offer effusive descriptions of scenery or extensive detail about characters’ backgrounds.
