Title: Engendering Gender: Hemingway and Women
Author/Creator: Tania Chakravertty
Publication Details: West Bengal: A West Bengal Government English Fortnightly, Vol.41(23), pp.169-180
Annotation: Biographical and literary analysis of Hemingway s sexual and emotional relationships with women. Chakravertty characterizes Hemingway s concept of the ideal woman as a strong yet submissive martyr with a sexual potency matching his own. Contends that this portrayal stems from his own masculine insecurity. Briefly addresses The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Across the River and into the Trees, and others.
