Editat de Debra A. Moddelmog, Suzanne del Gizzo
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 dec 2015
Ernest Hemingway's literary career was shaped by the remarkable contexts in which he lived, from the streets of suburban Chicago to the shores of the Caribbean islands, to the battlefields of World War I, Franco's Spain and World War II.

'Moddelmog and del Gizzo have given us a concise, content-rich collection that functions as a one-volume seminar on the life and work of the author. The contributor's list is a Who's Who of Hemingway scholars and represents the most recent work being done in the field. Any student, scholar, or teacher of Hemingway will find something beneficial in this book; it is a testament to the contributors that the writing is accessible, lively, and informative … this collection is as close to a fully contextualized portrait of the author as we have. Ernest Hemingway in Context is a valuable contribution to this field; it gathers a variety of voices and viewpoints into a single, handsome volume that adds another level of depth to an already nuanced conversation. Regardless of their critical perspectives, newcomers and veterans alike will appreciate the range of topics and resources available in the text.' Michael D. DuBose, The Hemingway Review
'Ernest Hemingway in Context provides an invaluable guide for 21st century readers and scholars to explore the intricacies of Hemingway, a commanding and complicated figure in modern literature whose well-known persona is constructed along fault lines of gender, sexuality, race, and nationality that shift and rumble beneath our feet.' Scott Donaldson, author of Hemingway vs Fitzgerald: The Rise and Fall of a Literary Friendship
'Every student or reader of Hemingway's writing must own this book. From the brilliant new critics to the long-established ones, Professors Moddelmog and del Gizzo have included a range of perspectives that are consistently illuminating - and often unexpected.

Wars and oceans, films and magazine coverage - this book is truly useful.' Linda Wagner-Martin, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
