- Annotation
- Analysis focusing on Catholic symbolism and themes found in the text. Argues that the novel s Church-Party struggle reflects Hemingway s own conflicted views on Catholicism and communism, and his desire to assert oneness of Spanish tradition and contemporary Republican experience. Provides a close reading of Pilar s tale of the execution of the fascists, which supports the novel s epigraph regarding the oneness of humanity.
