Farewell To Arms Hemingway Hero
845 wordsHemingway's Use of Heroes in A Farewell to Arms Ernest Hemingway has the tendency to use his heroes in some unheroic ways. At first the hero may seem obvious, but later on it is discovered that the true hero is not who it seems to be. In A Farewell to Arms Hemingway uses the true hero to guide the main character into becoming a hero, but fails miserably.

Ernest Hemingway Short Story
605 wordsErnest Hemingway was a very talented writer of short stories. He is even thought by many to be better at writing short stories than at writing his novels. He portrays the philosophy of existentialism. A philosophy that is centered upon the analysis of existence and of the way man finds himself existing in the world.

Hills Like White Elephants Ernest Hemingway
1,496 wordsSympathetic Hemingway The most striking feature of the short story? Hills Like White Elephants? is the manner in which it is told.
