From the Paper:

"Critics, too, respect Hemingway as a literary giant, not so much for his work, but for his contribution to literature. Hemingway developed a school and theory of writing that has transcended his lifetime and effected every modern writer. His critics, too, do not deny his influence, but argue that his actual writings do not deserve the praise awarded. Their claims range from the inconsistency of Hemingway and an overriding, destructive machismo to redundancy and repressed homosexual underpinnings."
