- Annotation
- Draws on feminist theory to analyze Hemingway s depiction of female characters negotiating the oppositional constructions of traditional and modern femininity. Doss focuses on Brett of The Sun Also Rises and Helen of The Snows of Kilimanjaro to show their resistance to the easy categorization of the New Woman stereotype in favor of a more complex identity construction. Provides pedagogical strategies for introducing students to the genres of femininity prior to World War I to demonstrate modernism s departure from tradition.
