Ernest Hemingway: A Farewell to Arms
After a brief introduction to the experiences that Hemingway drew on in writing A Farewell to Arms, this account approaches the novel through a summary of its structure and a consideration of the following themes and ideas:
- War and heroism;
- Love and sex (sex as defiance–of convention and oppressive morality);
- Relative importance given to men and women (the treatment of gender);
- Definitions of masculinity, including relationships among men and masculine sensitivities.
