Table of Contents
- Hemingway once said that The Sun Also Rises is "not a hollow or bitter satire but a tragedy." Do you agree / disagree?
- Although the topic of World War I itself is hardly mentioned in The Sun Also Rises, one can notice the pervasive presence of one of its major psychological consequences:
- The characters themselves are, somehow, tragic as well
- Cohn is another type of victim.
- Sex, at the same time, has an important role in The Sun Also Rises.
- 'Action is character'' F. S. Fitzgerald
- In the two novels, one can find characters that may be viewed as transparent.
- However, one comes to the same conclusion about Robert Cohn.
- Tender Is The Night could be another counter example.
- Dick on the other hand follows the exact opposite evolution.
