Annotation
Influence study situating The Sun Also Rises within the context of Emerson’s writings, particularly “Self-Reliance.” Analyzes the novel as a test of Emerson’s vision for America to create a distinct cultural identity devoid of European thought. Identifies each character as broken and imperfect, but nonetheless striving for independence and freedom from past traditions within the Lost Generation.
