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

Seitz Museumof MotfwnArt ARCHIVE Claude Monet was the purest and most characteristic master of Impressionism. The fundamental principle of his art was a new, wholly perceptual observation of the most fleeting aspects of nature — of moving clouds and water, sun and shadow, rain and snow, mist and fog, dawn and sunset. Over a period of almost seventy years, from the late 1850s to his death in 1926, Monet must have pro duced close to 3,000 paintings, the vast majority of which were landscapes, seascapes, and river scenes. As his involvement with nature became more com plete, he turned from general representations of season and light to paint more specific, momentary, and transitory effects of weather and atmosphere. Late in the seventies he began to repeat his subjects at different seasons of the year or moments of the day, and in the nineties this became a regular procedure that resulted in his well-known "series " — Haystacks, Poplars, Cathedrals, Views of the Thames, Water ERRATA Lilies, etc.

  • Artist Spotlight
    ARTIST SPOTLIGHT Édouard Manet DAN SCOTT The Bridge BetweenÉdouard Realism Manet and Impressionism Édouard Manet (1832-1883) was a French painter who bridged the gap between Real- ism and Impressionism. In this ebook, I take a closer look at his life and art. Édouard Manet, Boating, 1874 2 Key Fact Here are some of the key facts and ideas about the life and art of Manet: • Unlike many of his contemporaries, he was fortunate enough to be born into a wealthy family in Paris on 23 January 1832. His father was a high-ranking judge and his mother had strong political connections, being the daughter of a diplomat and goddaughter of Charles Bernadotte, a Swedish crown prince. • His father expected him to follow in his footsteps down a career in law. However, with encouragement from his uncle, he was more interested in a career as a paint- er. His uncle would take him to the Louvre on numerous occasions to be inspired by the master paintings. • Before committing himself to the arts, he tried to join the Navy but failed his entry examination twice. Only then did his father give his reluctant acceptance for him to become an artist. • He trained under a skilled teacher and painter named Thomas Couture from 1850 to 1856. Below is one of Couture’s paintings, which is similar to the early work of Manet. I always find it interesting to see how much a teacher’s work can influence the work of their students. That is why you need to be selective with who you learn from.

ISBN: 978 2 35 433078 1 Once you actually managed to stand in front of most of the Manet paintings gathered at the Orsay this summer, the rewards were endless (fig. 1).[1] In painting after painting, you were reminded what made him one of the nineteenth century’s most gifted and nuanced artists. The bravura with which he applied paint lends his world an elegant ease that emerges less as reality than as fraught dream and wish. The unusually stark contrasts in light and dark color he employed to destroy centuries’ old rules of academic decorum morph into social distinctions as much as aesthetic ones (struggles over visibility and invisibility, identity and non-identity, subjectivity and objectivity, order and disorder, hierarchy and chaos).

  • Impressionism
    IMPRESSIONISM Eugène Boudin (1824 – 1898) was one of the first French landscape painters to paint outdoors. Boudin was a marine painter, and expert in the rendering of all that goes upon the sea and along its shores. His pastels, summary and economic, garnered the splendid eulogy of Baudelaire; and Corot called him the "king of the skies.” He opened a small picture framing shop in Le Havre and exhibited artists working in the area, such as Jean-François Millet, and Thomas Couture who encouraged young Boudin to follow an artistic career. Boudin, The Beach at Villerville 1864 In 1857/58 Boudin befriended the young Claude Monet, then only 18, and persuaded him to give up his teenage caricature drawings and to become a landscape painter, instilling in the younger painter a love of bright hues and the play of light on water later evident in Monet's Impressionist paintings. They remained lifelong friends and Boudin joined Monet and his young friends in the first Impressionist exhibition in 1873. Boudin, Sailboats at Trouville 1884 Johan Jongkind (1819 – 1891) was a Dutch painter and printmaker. He painted marine landscapes in a free manner and is regarded as a forerunner of Impressionism, introducing the painting of genre scenes from the tradition of the Dutch Golden Age. From 1846 he moved to Paris, to further his studies. Two years later, he had work accepted for the Paris Salon, receiving acclaim from critic Charles Baudelaire and later on from Émile Zola. Returning to Rotterdam in1865 he moved back to Paris in1861, where he rented a studio Jongkind, in Montparnasse, the following year meeting in View from the Quai d'Orsay 1854 Honfleur Sisley, Boudin and the young Monet.
