Title: The Western Code of Hemingway s Gambler
Author/Creator: Seth Bovey
Publication Details: North Dakota Quarterly, Vol.58(3), pp.86-93
Annotation: Influence study. Contends that Hemingway s code hero was influenced by his knowledge of the western code, conduct characteristic of Great Plains cowboys in the late nineteenth century. Bovey argues that Cayetano of The Gambler, the Nun, and the Radio follows the western code of self-reliance, independence, and compassion.
