Having school uniforms also reduces stress that students experience in the morning from not having anything to wear. They would also save time in the

just alienation and nothingness. Ernest Hemingway’s ‘A Farewell to Arms’ explores notions surrounding both love and war. However it is not a love story‚ and nor is it a war story. It is a combination of both that allows for Hemingway to discuss what he is truly interested in: Existentialism.

In Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms‚ many different themes are present throughout the book. Love‚ lust‚ nationalism‚ tragedy‚ and hatred are what I think A Farewell to Arms is based on‚ but one theme that really caught my attention was the role of religion.

Henry’s feelings for Catherine were not only influenced by his feelings‚ but by his
