- 143: Farewell To Arms
- ... course excluding love and life. Combine all three and you find one of the most masterfully written novels about life, love, and war that could only be written by Ernest Hemingway.

- 144: Fallstaff Friend Of Fatherfigu
- ... to be one of the greatest comic inventions ever. Critics have called Falstaff everything ranging from a buffoon to "an instance of the predominance of intellectual power" (Coleridge cited in Hemingway 418). He is by far one of the most dynamic characters ever constructed by Shakespeare. Yet, "the question persists, 'wherein is Falstaff good, but to taste sack and drink it? … Wherein worthy, but in nothing?'" states Charlton (cited in Hemingway 446). Falstaff's main purpose in the play is to provide the audience a character to laugh at, in what would be - with the absence of Falstaff - an extremely serious ... cowardly soldier, and a lying braggart; a flatterer to the face, and a satirist behind the backs of his friends; - and yet we are never disgusted with him." (cited in Hemingway 418) Falstaff's underlying purpose of the play is to act as a father figure to Hal, Henry IV. So, how does a man of such a personality attract ...

He talks to him just after The Great Gadsby was released. He was rather impressed at how smart Scott was. But, it seemed he was annoyed with him at times. Scott ended up to be rather untrustworthy.

That was why he ended up being somewhat distant. He was very persistent about what ...

Hemingway wrote that the sounds Santiago made while having the cramps were the same as the reaction someone would have while having a nail passed through their hand and into wood. This was the same experience Christ had while being crucified. Hemingway included this reference purposefully so the reader would be able to compare and understand the similarity. After his voyage was completed Santiago was exhausted and weak. While bringing in ...

- 150: The Sun Also Rises By Ernest H
- The Sun Also Rises The remarkable thing about the book was its liberal use of dialogue and how Hemingway used it to carry the reader through the book. There was no plot in the book in the sense that there was no twists, intrigue, or goals for any of the characters and the dialogue was the only thing that moved the reader through the book. Hemingway used so much dialogue that it was difficult at times to follow who was saying what, but I believe this didn't matter because any of the characters, except for ... apart from anyone else. Jake seemed to be an observer who was watching the lives of his friends unfold and happen around him, but without his participation.
