- Annotation
- Explores reasons why Hemingway chose to portray Robert Cohn as a villainous Jew, and analyzes how Cohn s lack of masculinity represents a future Hemingway was uncomfortable with. Wilentz reads Cohn s character as a reflection of the irrational anxieties of early twentieth-century Americans over the influx of immigrants in post-industrial America.
