Annotation
Reads Death in the Afternoon considering Hulme’s collection of imagist essays entitled Speculations: Essays on Humanism and the Philosophy of Art (1924), contending that the work signals Hemingway’s completion of the first learning phase of his writing career. Penas Ibáñez asserts that for Hemingway, writing about the bullfight carries more significance than the bullfight itself, as he learned to work beyond the artistic conventions of the past toward a new modernist expression of writing and reading based in part on Hulme’s theories.
