From the very first time Hemingway embarked on his historic writing journey, he exhibits through his written works and actions how a “hero” should conduct himself/herself. Hemingway often partook in hunting, fishing, and could be seen attending Spanish bullfights. Hemingway uses these experiences, and the ones he gained from World War II to enhance his already superb writing. Admirers often praise Hemingway for how he believes a man should live his life, and how he also emulates this belief in his characters by “tying the life of the hero…
American Romanticism brought a new era to America and American literature. Within literature of the Romanticism era came the development of the gothic novel. Edger Allen Poe is one of the well-known gothic authors which arose from this era. Throughout Poe’s career he wrote many short stories following one theory which he created - that every aspect of a short story should lead to one single effect. For Poe many of his stories have the single effect of terror. In Poe’s story “The Fall of the House of Usher” he creates the single effect of terror through his description of the house, the entombment of Madeline, and Madeline’s appearance at the end of the story.…
"Every man's life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another". Ernest Hemingway believed that a life is not lived without taking chances. Hemingway participated in many risky and sketchy things. He played football, which back then was played with leather helmets, he also hunted big game which was one of his favorite hobbies. Throughout his life, masculinity and the ability to do these masculine actions, changed his life for the best.…
Ernest Hemingway’s writing typically took place throughout the World War II era. His works are bleak and dismal, and describe that undertone well. Hemingway was not a very cheerful person, but puts on a good, brave face for everyone. He wrote more than a few short stories about war, all the stories having the same type theme of soldier’s struggle to fit back into society that does not understand what the soldier’s have gone through while away. Many critics believe that these stories are based on his life experiences, but are fictional stories. The emotions that are in the stories can seem real to the readers. He went through a lot of tragedies in his life. In many of his short stories they begin from his childhood to a grown…

Ernest Miller Hemingway was born on 21 July, 1899, the first son of Clarence and Grace Hall Hemingway and the second of their six children. Clarence Hemingway was a medical doctor with a small practice in Oak Park, Illinois; his wife was a music teacher with an active interest in church affairs and Christian Science. As a boy, Hemingway seemed to enjoy the best of both worlds. He grew up close to metropolitan center in a suburban or semi-rural community that was also sheltered by distance from the violence and vice of Chicago itself. Moreover, Dr. Hemingway owned a cabin in northern Michigan where his oldest son spent summers developing a life-long passion for hunting and fishing apart from middle-class society.…

“Better to be a strong man with a weak point, than to be a weak man without a strong point...” (William J. H. Boetcker). This quotation illustrates that a person with a great amount of talent and has a unfavorable flaw is more desirable than a person with no strong point at all. This quotation applies to many exceptional and influential American writers, such as J.D. Salinger, Tennessee Williams, Edgar Allen Poe and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Among these American authors who had undesirable and unfavorable flaws was Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway was by far one of the most influential writers in his time. Hemingway has had an enormous influence on many American writers’ witting styles. He also introduced a new writing style to the world of American literature and made all of his works relatable to the average person.…
“I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow” (The Fall of the House of Usher 162) could practically sum up nearly all of Edgar Allan Poe’s works and his life. Throughout his many short stories, among which I read The Fall of the House of Usher, The Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Black Cat, The Purloined Letter, and The Cask of Amontillado, the constant theme conveyed is that of darkness. Some of his works, such as The Fall of the House of Usher, create a more melancholy sense of darkness through certain word choice, while others, such as the Dupin tales and The Pit and the Pendulum, create a more dark, mysterious theme. Edgar Allan Poe’s many short stories are prime examples of American Romanticism due to their dark themes and commentary on human nature through their symbolic, Gothic natures.…

The story I chose to evaluate was “The Birth-Mark” by Nathaniel Hawthorne. “The Birth-mark” is a story about a scientist named Aylmer who marries a beautiful lady named Georgiana. Georgiana knew she was beautiful with her birth-mark and says “To tell you the truth it has been so often called a charm, that I was simple enough to imagine it might be so.” “Ah, upon another face, perhaps it might” says Aylmer. This is the beginning of Georgiana feeling insecure about her birth-mark. The birth-mark starts to bother her and now she knows her husband does not like it. Aylmer starts obsessing out removing the birth-mark and having dreams about ways to ridden the mark from his beautiful wife’s face. He confides in Georgiana about these horrible dreams and she want to please her husband and stop the horrific dreams. She decided that she loved her husband so much no matter her fears of her fate she would let him remove the birth-mark. Aylmer created a mixture that Georgiana drank that faded the birth-mark he had disliked so much that hindered the full beauty of his wife. Aylmer felt success when he realized his potion was fading the birth-mark but it also took his beautiful wife’s life.…
