- Annotation
- Draws on posthumanist theory to explore Santiago s heroic humility, the essential component of masculine grace in which one learns to live within boundaries. Analyzes Santiago s dependence on Manolin, respectful engagement with the feminized sea, and kinship with the natural world to show that one can maintain dignity and achieve a humbled state of grace while submitting to a worthy opponent.
