ABSTRACT:This essay reads Hemingway’s short story “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” as an allegory of the Anthropocene. The story presents an effort to rethink how to live, a concern that animated much of Hemingway’s writing and thinking. This rethinking involves dramatically exposing the faults of the narrator, who, read allegorically—in a general, not strict, way—evokes many of the values and systems of production that led to the Anthropocene. Thus, the narrator’s self-critique can also be read as a cultural critique, one sharpened and fitted to Anthropocene temporalities by the story’s “telescoping” technique.

ABSTRACT:On 23 September 2019, the British travel conglomerate Thomas Cook was declared insolvent, marking the end to arguably the oldest and most familiar brand in the business. As references in letters from the 1920s and an early short story indicate, Hemingway knew of the company and occasionally used its services but also disparaged the quality of foreign cultural encounters it provided to paying customers. Examining these references to Thomas Cook and the industry it represented, this “note” contributes to the critical appraisal of Hemingway’s ambivalent engagement with the rise of leisure travel and mass tourism.

ABSTRACT:This essay is a meticulous study of the inspiration, context, and composition of Hemingway’s “Cat in the Rain.” It analyzes Hemingway’s time in Rapallo and the events that may (and may not) have inspired the story and offers a close examination of Hemingway’s condensed style and use of repetition in the story.

ABSTRACT:The Selected Letters of Ralph Ellison, published in 2019, along with the essays in Shadow and Act (1964), reveal Ernest Hemingway to have been a major preoccupation for the author of Invisible Man. While Ellison did acknowledge that Hemingway once served as “the true father-as-artist of so many of us who came to writing during the late thirties,” Hemingway’s influence on Ellison was, however, neither simple nor direct. Instead, Hemingway allowed Ellison a way to think about “questions of influence”: about technique, about producing emotion, and, above all, about how an artist might grapple with America’s “great moral theme.”

ABSTRACT:Michael Arlen (1895–1956) was one of the most successful popular novelists of the 1920s. This essay examines his relationship with Ernest Hemingway on two levels, the literary and the biographical. Hemingway was alerted to Arlen’s work by Scott Fitzgerald, and Hemingway’s earliest reviewers assumed he owed a debt to Arlen. Hemingway denied any “influence.” Similarities between The Sun Also Rises and Arlen’s bestseller The Green Hat are examined. Arlen’s (possibly) satirical jibes at Hemingway in his own fiction and Hemingway’s racially inflected condescension towards Arlen call into question Arlen’s son’s claim of a “real warmth” between the two writers, who rarely met.
