Book Description
Before he gained wide fame as a novelist, Ernest Hemingway established his literary reputation with his short stories. This collection, The Short Stories, originally published in 1938, is definitive. Among these forty-nine short stories are Hemingway's earliest efforts, written when he was a young foreign correspondent in Paris, and such masterpieces as “Hills Like White Elephants,” “The Killers,” “The Short, Happy Life of Francis Macomber,” and “The Snows of Kilimanjaro.” Set in the varied landscapes of Spain, Africa, and the American Midwest, this collection traces the development and maturation of Hemingway's distinct and revolutionary storytelling style—from the plain, bald language of his first story, “Up in Michigan,” to the seamless prose and spare, eloquent pathos of “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” to the expansive solitude of the Big Two-Hearted River stories. These stories showcase the singular talent of a master, the most important American writer of the twentieth century.

Book Description
With an Overview by Paul Smith and a Checklist to Hemingway Criticism, 1975–1990 New Critical Approaches to the Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway is an all-new sequel to Benson’s highly acclaimed 1975 book, which provided the first comprehensive anthology of criticism of Ernest Hemingway’s masterful short stories. Since that time the availability of Hemingway’s papers, coupled with new critical and theoretical approaches, has enlivened and enlarged the field of American literary studies. This companion volume reflects current scholarship and draws together essays that were either published during the past decade or written for this collection. The contributors interpret a variety of individual stories from a number of different critical points of view—from a Lacanian reading of Hemingway’s “After the Storm” to a semiotic analysis of “A Very Short Story” to an historical-biographical analysis of “Old Man at the Bridge.” In identifying the short story as one of Hemingway’s principal thematic and technical tools, this volume reaffirms a focus on the short story as Hemingway’s best work. An overview essay covers Hemingway criticism published since the last volume, and the bibliographical checklist to Hemingway short fiction criticism, which covers 1975 to mid-1989, has doubled in size.

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, Ruhr-University of Bochum (Anglistik/Amerikanistik), course: Academic Skills, language: English, abstract: Hemingway’s novels and short stories have always been a topic of discussion among scholars for the last century. Widely discussed are the prevalent themes in his works such as sexuality, masculinity and femininity and other gender related topics. While he is praised by some of them, others view his works more critically. One of the most well-known and considered as the first serious Hemingway scholar is Philip Young. Young’s most influential approach towards Hemingway’s works is the classification of the male characters into two different categories, the “Code Heroes” and the “Hemingway Heroes”. While Young’s theory is mostly well-recognized, subject of this paper shall be to prove with the help of Hemingway’s short story “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place” that it is not always possible to apply it to all of Hemingway’s works.
