Past The Lake Cotton Clouds Todd

covered with nothing more than my shorts. My

Ernest Hemingway Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms
and The Old Man and the Sea are often regarded as
his best novels. These novels are known for
Hemingway's interesting writing style and his
bright manner of narration. A Farewell to Arms is
a good example of so-called crisp precise prose
and is characterized by lively assertive staccato
(Astro 47). His style can be described as the
style of eloquent repression. His prose is simple,
laconic, lean, idiomatic and sparse. The main
peculiarities in thes...

Hamlets classic " To be or not to be"
(Hamlet, prince of Denmark, 3. 1. 57) speech
really shows who he is. Obviously Hamlet is
horribly depressed. We have already seen several
examples of this, but this speech gives us a clear
picture of his sadness. More importantly however,
his speech shows his weakness and indecisiveness.
Hamlet is consistently melancholy, but he never
really acts on it; he just kind of wallows around,
full of self-pity and loathing. Finally, it gives

Ezra Pound Nobel Prize

In Hemingway Symbols 038; Style In the past,
hardly anyone ever suspected Hemingway novels of
symbolism. Then, in The Old Man and the Sea,
people saw symbols the old man stood for mans
dignity, the big fish embodied nature, the sharks
symbolized evil (or maybe just the critics). No
good book has ever been written that has in it
symbols arrived at beforehand and stuck in, says
Hemingway. That kind of symbol sticks out like
raisins in raisin bread. Raisin bread is all
