Hays, an experienced teacher who has taught The Sun Also Rises for more than forty years, has gathered together other seasoned instructors who teach Ernest Hemingway's rich and complex novel. An informative collection of approaches to the presentation of The Sun Also Rises, this volume provides historic background and a glossary of arcane references, presents critical interpretations, and offers methodologies to inspire teachers of college and high school students. From material on the bitter aftermath of World War I and the Lost Generation to current theories on the construction and performance of gender, this collection provides everything today's instructors need to develop and explain the themes in this classic of modern literature. The essays reveal that The Sun Also Rises is not just a work about the 1920s but a complex novel that can be taught as an embodiment of existential philosophy; a statement about the construction and performance of gender; and a discussion of themes of masculinity, theory, and psychoanalysis.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50483421708561,"sku":"CIN0893012637G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0893012637.jpg?v=1751364002"},{"product_id":"hemingway-and-film-book-cam-cobb-9781606354827","title":"Hemingway and Film","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew approaches to teaching Hemingway in the context of film\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThough Ernest Hemingway distrusted Hollywood and often found himself in conflict with directors and producers, he frequented theaters and freely acknowledged the art and potential that cinema contained.

We can easily visualize the iconic images of Hemingway with fly rod bent by hefty trout, with bulls charging matadors, or of the famous author proudly posing with trophy lions, marlin, and a menagerie of Western American game animals. As Robert E. Fleming once put it-updating Gertrude Stein's famous quip that Hemingway looked like a modern and smelled of museums-Hemingway \"was also a hunter, fisherman, and naturalist who smelled of libraries.\" Hemingway indeed read widely in natural history and science, as well as the literature of field sports. This lifelong interest in the natural world and its inhabitants manifests itself in Hemingway's writing in myriad ways. From the trout Nick Adams carefully releases to Santiago's marlin, from Robert Jordan's \"heart beating against the pine needle floor of the forest\" to Colonel Cantwell's beloved Italian duck marshes, and from African Savannahs to the Gulf Stream, animals and environments are central to Hemingway's work and life. While these representations often served as background for broader human-centered matters in early scholarship, contemporary critics have opted to treat animals and environments directly. Teaching Hemingway and the Natural World marks a key entry in Hemingway studies, bringing questions from the rapidly evolving field of environmental literary studies to bear on Hemingway's places, animals, and life. If not only advances scholarship of Hemingway's relationship to the natural world, but it also facilitates bringing this under-standing to the classroom. This latest volume in the Teaching Hemingway series explores how his writing sheds light on broader questions of the human relationship to the nonhuman world. Organized geographically, these 16 essays by leading scholars are divided into five section about Hemingway's favorite places. Each essay includes specific classroom advice as well as theoretically sophisticated close readings.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53109925544209,"sku":"NIN9781606353189","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781606353189.jpg?v=1773914677"},{"product_id":"hemingway-in-the-digital-age-book-laura-godfrey-9781606353813","title":"Hemingway in the Digital Age","description":"Asks questions that connect Hemingway's time and our own digital era.

Just as influential as his famed economy of style and unflappable heroes, however, is his public persona. Heming- way helped create an image of a masculine ideal: sportsman, brawler, hard drinker, serial monogamist, and world traveler. Yet his iconicity has also worked against him. Because Hemingway is often dismissed by students and scholars alike for his perceived misogyny, instructors might find themselves wondering how to handle the impossibly over-determined author or even if they should include him on their syllabi at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith these concerns in mind, the authors of the essays in \u003ci\u003eTeaching Hemingway and Gender\u003c\/i\u003e introduce both students and scholars to Hemingway's surprisingly multivalent treatment of gender and sexuality.
