Annotation

Studies the influence of Hemingway and other depression-era authors on cultural attitudes concerning the interrelation of humans and the natural environment. Lambert contends that in Green Hills of Africa, Hemingway's treatment of exploitative practices of hunting in 1930s East Africa expanded beyond traditional conservationist thinking, arguing that Hemingway "restages the legacy of the American frontier experience to critique overhunting, predator eradication, and, to some extent, imperial practices towards indigenous populations."
