Spanish Civil War Ernest Hemingway
1,150 words
For Whom the Bell Tolls is a novel loosely based
on Ernest Hemingway's own experiences in the
Spanish Civil War in the 1930 's. Before I delve
into the book itself, I thought it would be best
to give some background information on Ernest
Hemingway and on the Spanish Civil war and the
circumstances surrounding it. Hemingway was born
July 21, 1899 in Oak Park, Illinois, and the
second of six children. His father, Clarence
Hemingway, was a physician and his mother was a
devoutly religious woman wit...

When a boat is sinking, all the passengers are
given life preservers. When a marriage comes to an
end, a similar state of emergency exists, but no
one hands you a life preserver. You and your
children are on your own, thrashing about, trying
hard to survive. Many parents in this situation
feel like helpless, frightened children
themselves, wishing someone or something would
save them. Imagine, then, how devastated and
powerless children feel. A separation and divorce

Gold Standard Gold Coins
713 words
I should start by saying that until the
Franco-German War of 1870 - 1871, Europe's
currencies were based on a combined gold and
silver standard (BIMETALLISM). In the Versailles
Peace Treaty, France had to agree to pay 5 billion
Gold Francs in reparations, over the next few
years. Germany partially made use of this influx
by switching from the bimetallic to a pure gold
standard; most other European countries followed
soon. When the world's richest goldfields were
found at WITWATERSRAND near Johan...

Explore the characterisation of Teddy and his
significance in the play as a whole, starting from

worth of your lifes work even though you paid
taxes on every penny of income when you earned it.
