Article
Annotation
Traces the elaborate pattern of Christian references and allusions underlying the hunt throughout. For example, Gajdusek equates the taking of the heavy heads back to camp by the old man, M’Cola, and Hemingway as a parody of Calvary, with each of the men representing a surrogate Christ. Contends that a new type of religion, founded on brotherhood and bonding with nature, replaces conventional biblical authority.
