false <![CDATA[Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea (The Atlantic Crticial Studies)]]> 1513127 1 The present book is an in-depth critical study of the modern American classic, Ernest Hemingways The Old Man and the Sea, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1952 and the Nobel Prize in 1954. This study, while keeping the novel under the critical lens, examines it against the backdrop of Hemingways aesthetic convictions and overall literary achievement. It throws light on the various dimensions of not only the novel but Hemingways craftsmanship like his use of suggestion and symbolism, his inimitable style, his manipulation of narrative perspective, and the way he projects his philosophical theme of the ephemeral versus the everlasting, which is dramatized in The Old Man and the Sea. The present book will definitely prove useful to students, researchers as well as teachers of English Literature interested in the study of Hemingway and his works. 1504777 1 4 2007 Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea (The Atlantic Crticial Studies) total:858|5:7|4:12|3:6|2:1|1:0| 858 3191 1022 94 3 0 false false Tue Sep 08 18:20:29 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 18:37:38 -0700 2009 The Old Man and the Sea is a classic, and as far as classics go its not to bad.
