- Annotation
- Begins with an examination of the problems Hemingway studies faces considering various contemporary critical systems. Spilka then shifts to a discussion of Hemingway s recognition of the socially coded sexual expectations to put out for the troops evident in A Farewell to Arms and Catherine s war madness. Closes with a comparison of the aggressively subservient Catherine to the sexually tyrannical Catherine Bourne of The Garden of Eden. Also published as Repossessing Papa: A Narcissistic Meditation for Literary Throwbacks in Rereading Modernism: New Directions in Feminist Criticism, edited by Lisa Rado, 231-52. New York: Garland, 1994.
