Abstract
This paper gives an in-depth analysis of the characterization and point of view in Ernest Hemingway's "The Sun Also Rises." According to the paper, we can see the complexity of this interrelationship in how Hemingway uses the first person perspective of his protagonist - Jake Barnes - to not only narrate the action of the novel and describe the other characters but also, in the process, to describe himself as a reflection of his characterization of others.
From the Paper
"In fiction characterization and point of view are often closely interrelated, as the nature of perspective influences how characters are understood and depicted. In Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises we can see the complexity of this interrelationship in how Hemingway uses the first person perspective of his protagonist - Jake Barnes - to not only narrate the action of the novel and describe the other characters but..."

Abstract
The following paper will look at the comprehensive topic of environmental education, its history, its philosophy (and the origins of this philosophy), and the trends which appear to be animating it. In so doing, it will be argued that environmental education (in the sense of teaching students about the natural world and in the sense of using the natural world to impart valuable life-lessons) has a vital role to play in the optimization of constructivist teaching; it will also, just as significantly, be impressed upon the reader that environmental education brings into sharp relief the symbiotic and mutually-interdependent relationship of humanity to the natural world. Finally, this paper will argue that the ascent of environmental education has provoked a reformulation of Christianity tenets vis-a-vis the environment that might well make the religion appealing once more in an increasingly secular world. In the final analysis, concepts such as "environmentalism," "ecological conscientiousness," and "conservation" are not mere words but tools that can be utilized in the service of educating young people, building a more cohesive, stable human community that respects itself and the natural environment, and in enlivening religious principles and tenets that some might have dismissed as hoary, antiquated and cliched.

Abstract
In order to provide a thorough analysis of emasculation in Ernest Hemingway's novel, "The Sun Also Rises", two scholarly articles are examined and compared. The first article, by Lorie Watkins Fulton, presents thematic arguments that "contradiction lies at the heart of The Sun Also Rises" and analyzes the contradictions between readers' analyses of Jake Barnes and Brett Ashley's analyses of him (Fulton 61). The paper then shows how the second article, by Todd Onderdonk, takes a different stance to a certain extent, for although it presents a similar analysis of the thematic elements in this novel, it focuses primarily on the feminization of Jake Barnes. The writer then presents his own analysis.

Abstract
This paper examines Ernest Hemingway's novel, "The Sun also Rises," as an anti-war statement. The reviewer describes the novel as one of the major works that defines the "Lost Generation" of post-World War I. The novel showcases the continued casualties of war and implies that no conflict is worth the loss of humanity. The characters are analyzed in terms of what they represent as a result of the war. The reviewer concludes that the miserable state of the characters' lives in "The Sun Also Rises" shows that Hemingway's intention was to present anti-war material.
From the Paper
"The main character of Jake Barnes can be viewed as representative of the Lost Generation. A veteran of war, he has trouble dealing, both psychologically and physically, with what he witnessed and experienced during the war. His impotence reflects not only his physical injury, but also his inability to reconcile his growing feelings of emptiness. He is acutely aware of the moral vacuum that the war has created for his generation, and he is sunk deeply into that world. He has an acute sense of what is happening among the people around him, but he does not spend much time in introspection because of the pain it causes. Though he moves from place to place, he is acutely aware that, "You can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another." He is trapped between knowing and understanding the problems that the world is facing and that the War has created for his generation, but he is far too close to the problem to do anything about it. His own injury from the War and from the unrequited love he has for Lady Brett keep him deeply mired in the psychological fallout that the First World War has brought on his generation. "

Abstract
This paper offers a history of the critical reception of "The Sun Also Rises." The paper demonstrates how the book has been interpreted since the time of its publication and highlights those critics who made a major contribution to new ways of interpreting it. The paper underscores the fact that critics have looked at "The Sun Also Rises" for decades and many of them have come up with some interesting interpretations that challenge readers to think more deeply about what they have read.
From the Paper
"Many of Hemingway's characters exude masculinity and raw power, and this novel is no exception, as many critics have also noted. These are men who are strong, silent, and often deadly. They are not afraid of death, as their running with the bulls shows. One 1943 review said, "They act like people who have not fully grown up and who lack the self-awareness to realize this; in fact, they possess no desire to grow up" (Farrell 222). This anti-Semitism according to many critics and reviewers.s also quite in keeping with their masculinity, which does not necessarily denote maturity, as their running with the bulls in Pamplona also shows. Grown, mature men do not need to prove their masculinity by running from bulls, but young men still finding themselves certainly do, and critics recognized this."

From the Paper
"This paper will compare and contrast two novels by Ernest Hemingway: "The Sun Also Rises" and "A Farewell to Arms". Both of these novels are based on the personal experiences of Hemingway which took place during and immediately after the First World War. During the First World War, Hemingway volunteered to serve as an ambulance driver for the Italian army. He was wounded during that time, and his experiences became the basis for the novel A Farewell to Arms. During the early 1920s, Hemingway went to Paris, where he befriended other American artists who were living as expatriates there. That experience became the foundation for his novel The Sun Also Rises. Thus, the setting for A Farewell to Arms is Europe during the First World War, and the setting for The Sun Also Rises is Europe during the years immediately following the war."

Abstract
An examination of works from both authors which closely examine American realities through characters that pursue wealth, drunkenness and sex with the hope that they will provide at least the possibility of some sort of meaning.
From the Paper
""The Great Gatsby" and "The Sun Also Rises" by F. Scott Fitzgerald: Wealth, Drunkenness and Sex
Like other writers of the 1920's, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway were fascinated by what had become of the American Dream. The impact of World War I on both Fitzgerald and Hemingway and on their generation was tremendous. Indeed, many writers in the postwar period took on the unpleasant task of exposing the degradation of the American Dream; of covering the grossest aspects of selfishness, hypocrisy and moral vacuum. Fitzgerald and Hemingway's characters are a careless, aimless, pleasure-seeking crowd which is clearly emblematic of a generation of lost souls. Before Hemingway's novel, The Sun Also Rises, opens, he quotes Gertrude Stein who names the generation that came of age during the First World War as the "lost generation." Indeed, the pre-war values of love, faith, manhood and womanhood, which previously gave meaning to life, fail to offer an adequate answer to Fitzgerald's and Hemingway's characters who try to produce meaning in a world seemingly lost to rampant, amoral consumerism and loveless-ness. Both authors closely examine American realities through characters that wander through endless experiences of wealth, drunkenness and sex with the hope that they will provide at least the possibility of some sort of dependable meaning.

Abstract
The paper describes the character, Lady Brett Ashley, in Ernest Hemingway's "The Sun Also Rises" as having an aimless and unsatisfying life. The novel has a post WWI setting and the paper shows how Brett's search for love and the general aimless mood of the characters in this novel are said to be symbolic of the entire Lost Generation's search for the values of love and romance before the war shattered their belief in justice, morality and manhood.
From the Paper
"Brett is viewed as an apprentice, rather than an exemplar or anti-exemplar, it is not because of her aimlessness, but due to her obsessive need of companionship. While Jake may wander from bar to bar, he knows himself, and is coming to terms no matter how painful with his lot in life. Brett, on the other hand fears her own self, her own strength. She knows the power she has over others but she is afraid. She is not comfortable with who she is even though she plays the part excellently. She is still searching for the part of herself that will allow her enough peace to be alone. Brett is studying human nature. She is an apprentice of life and her own powers and strengths. She is an expert only at playing the part she has come to play so well."
