- Annotation
- Examination of how Brett of The Sun Also Rises embodies the code hero convention. Willingham references bullfighting folklore, Vincente Blasco Ib nez s Blood and Sand (1922), and early drafts of The Sun Also Rises to show how recently studied psychosexual elements in Hemingway s later works are also present in the novel, and how its reflection of the Dionysian origins of bullfighting, unconventional portrayal of gender, and preoccupation with marriage and coupling, reveal that Brett not only embodies qualities of particularismo but also symbolizes a matador.
