Ernest Hemingway




Take notes on these slides (presented and discussed in class).
  • Read "The Battler" and "The End of Something" (both found in In Our Time or The Nick Adams Stories). You should have previously read "Indian Camp."
  • Answer these questions:
  1. What characteristics of the Hemingway Hero does Nick Adams display through these three stories?
  2. Write down at least two questions from each story that Hemingway raises but does not answer for the reader.
  3. Predict: What do you imagine will happen to Nick Adams later in his life? Will he marry? Have children? Hold a job? What details from the stories influence your answer?
