Title: Temporal Form and Wartime: Modernism After World War I
Author/Creator: John Limon
Publication Details: Writing after War: American War Fiction from Realism to Postmodernism, pp.84-127
Annotation: Freudian reading examining Hemingway s exploration of the theme of the inevitability of death in The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, and For Whom the Bell Tolls. Argues that Hemingway is preoccupied with the attraction of narratives not merely to deaths but to deaths that are redundant, with even the distinction between cowardly and courageous deaths blurred.
