| dc.description.abstract | Although drinking is a central theme in most of Hemingway’s work, many scholars
argue that The Sun Also Rises might be the one of his novels in which alcohol has the biggest
presence. This essay is a contribution to the discussion about the excessive drinking in the
novel. By taking a historical approach and by applying the concept of the Hemingway Hero to
the analysis of the novel, this essay will offer a close reading of the symbolism and meaning
of the portrayal of alcohol. This essay aim to show that alcohol is used as a tool for sociopolitical
commentary and furthermore, as a touchstone by which the integrity of the characters
in the novel is measured. | sv |
