Beards and Masculinity in American Literature by Peter Ferry Pdf
Beards and Masculinity in American Literature is a pioneering study of the symbolic power of the beard in the history of American writing. This book covers the entire breadth of American writing – from 18th century American newspapers and periodicals through the 19th and 20th centuries to recent contemporary engagements with the beard and masculinity. With chapters focused on the barber and the barbershop in American writing, the "need for a shave" in Ernest Hemingway’s fiction, Whitman’s beard as a sanctuary for poets reaching out to the bearded bard, and the contemporary re-engagement with the beard as a symbol of Otherness in post-9/11 fiction, Beards and Masculinity in American Literature underlines the symbolic power of facial hair in key works of American writing.

Through an in-depth exploration of some of his greatest works, readers will gain a greater understanding of this literary giant.
A Contemporary Classics hardcover edition of Nobel Prize-winner Ernest Hemingway’s landmark first novel—both a tragic love story and a searing group portrait of hapless American expatriates drinking, dancing, and chasing their illusions in post–World War I Europe. The Sun Also Rises tracks the Lost Generation of the 1920s from the nightclubs of Paris to the bullfighting arenas of Spain. The man at its center, world-weary journalist Jake Barnes, is burdened both by a wound acquired in the war and by his utterly hopeless love for the extravagantly decadent Lady Brett Ashley. When Jake, Brett, and their friends leave Paris behind and converge in Pamplona for the annual festival of the running of the bulls, tensions among the various rivals for Brett’s wayward affections build to a devastating climax. Ernest Hemingway, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954, has exerted a lasting influence on fiction in English. His signature prose style, tersely powerful and concealing more than it reveals, arguably reached its apex in this modernist masterpiece. “His lean, terse style is one of the monumental achievements of twentieth-century prose . . . Hemingway modeled a way to build sentences and paragraphs that vibrated with emotion . . . In The Sun Also Rises he achieved an imaginative insight into his own illusions and disillusions that goes beyond the surfaces of the Jazz Age to the welter of feelings wrapped up in being lost.” —from the Introduction by Nicholas Gaskill Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

Hemingway's feature articles appeared in the Toronto Star between 1920 and 1924. Writing from Toronto, Chicago, Paris and throughout Europe, he covered politics, sports, war, and travel. This volume collects for the first time all 172 pieces he published in the Toronto Star, including those under pseudonyms. These pieces show Hemingway's emerging art; his ability to spot the significant detail or the amusing angle in any assignment; and his keen observation of subjects that figure in his later fiction--war and love, courage and shame, cruelty and injustice. Some of these pieces even prefigure his later works, such as trout fishing scenes and descriptions of bullfighting. ISBN 0-684-18515-6: $19.95.
Hemingway's The Garden of Eden by Suzanne Del Gizzo,Frederic Joseph Svoboda Pdf
First book-length study of the novel that transformed Hemingway scholarshipWhen The Garden of Eden appeared in 1986, roughly twenty-five years after Ernest Hemingway s death, it was a watershed event that changed readers and scholars perceptions of the famous American author. Following five months in the life of protagonist David Bourne, a rising young writer of fiction, and his highly intelligent but artistically frustrated wife, Catherine, the novel is unique among Hemingway s works. Its exploration of gender roles and identities, unconventional sexual practices, race, and artistic expression challenged the traditional notions scholars and readers had of the iconic writer, and it sparked a debate that has revolutionized Hemingway studies.Suzanne del Gizzo and Frederic J. Svoboda have collected the best essays and reviews pieces that examine the novel s themes, its composition and structure, and the complex issue of editing a manuscript for posthumous publication and placed them in a single, cohesive volume.
Ernest Hemingway was one of the most controversial and admired writers of his time. This biography covers his life from his childhood in Oak Park, Illinois, to his suicide in 1961. It offers a sympathetic portrait of a brilliant artist and a complex individual—a private man who led a very public life. Hemingway’s formal education ended after high school when the ambitious young writer went off to work for The Kansas City Star. Eager to see the war, he volunteered for ambulance corps duty in Italy during World War I. Some of his most exciting and productive years were spent in postwar Paris, living among a group of writers and artists from around the world. In the 1930s Hemingway became as famous for his personality as for his writing, and he spent more of his time hunting and fishing competitively. But when war broke out in his beloved Spain, he went to serve as a correspondent on the loyalist side. In 1940 his novel For Whom the Bell Tolls, based on his wartime experiences, was published to critical acclaim and financial success. World War II found Hemingway working as a correspondent once again, and prone to fighting and drinking. Despite this decline, he wrote The Old Man and the Sea, which celebrated the courage of an aged Cuban fisherman, and went on to win the Nobel Prize for literature in 1954. Keith Ferrell conveys the scope of Hemingway’s achievement as a writer and gives a vivid portrait of one of America’s finest authors.
