Document Type
Book Chapter
Annotation
Pedagogical approach introducing students to the rhetorical effects of In Our Time’s narrative form and the ethics of writing and reading. Focuses on the structural complexity of the narrative in relation to Hemingway’s themes of violence and the senselessness of war. Hollenberg outlines both his methods for contextualizing the narrative’s war experiences and instructional modules focused on structure and style designed to encourage students to interpretatively preserve the integrity of the text’s plurality.
