- Annotation
- Ecocritical approach. Reads nature as part of Hemingway s critique of pastoral conventions, which obscures truthful reporting. Argues that while Hemingway makes frequent allusions to well-known pastoral works such as William Henry Hudson s The Purple Land (1885), his novel self-consciously subverts the genre s sentimentality, artifice, temerity, and anthropocentric worldview.
