Annotation

Discusses Hemingway’s iconic status in American popular culture, identifying masculinity as central to the Hemingway legend. Divides Hemingway’s brand of masculinity into three components, arguing that sports exemplified his code hero status, heavy drinking proved his ability to “hold his own,” and romantic relationships illustrated his virility.
