This collection of recent essays on Hemingway and For Whom the Bell
Tolls demonstrates the centrality of this Spanish Civil war novel
in the author's life and canon and reestablishes the book's status
as an American masterpiece. It provides a long overdue reassessment
of the novel, which was an overwhelming critical and popular
success in 1940. Following Rena Sanderson's introduction, the
volume begins with a reconsideration of Hemingway's career by
novelist Kurt Vonnegut. Ten literary essays by both well-known
specialists and new voices follow. Employing a diversity of
critical methods, including the biographical, historical,
political, textual, ethical, feminist, religious, mythic, generic,
and post-structuralist, these essays reveal the literary and
historical richness of Hemingway's novel. Informed by recent
developments in Hemingway scholarship, the chapters add up to a
valuable Hemingway resource. The book is an important contribution
to Hemingway studies, American literary scholarship, and American
studies. It is essential reading for anyone working on For Whom the
Bell Tolls.
