Produktbeschreibung

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, University of Frankfurt (Main) (Anglistik), course: Why look at animals? - Animal Studies in Literature, language: English, abstract: The main task of the following essay is a comparison between two relationships towards animals in Hemingway's Hunting Stories: "The old man and the sea" and "The short happy life of Francis Macomber." Santiago finds a huge marlin on a fishing trip that brings him to his limits while Francis Macomber goes on a trophy hunt to slay a lion. As different as Hemingway's protagonists in "The Old Man and the Sea" and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber" are, as different are their relationships with the hunted animals and their motivations. In his short story Hemingway goes as far as providing a description directly from the lion's perspective. Both hunters see their lives not only impacted permanently but their struggles can be interpreted as a symbol for something far greater.
