Annotation
Analysis of Hemingway’s political views as shown in his writings, particularly For Whom the Bell Tolls and To Have and Have Not. Claims that Hemingway’s belief that politics serve as a crucible for self-discovery was more important than his political ideology. Concludes that by creating and reacting to conflict, characters confront themselves, leading to greater self-realization and actualization.
