Ernest Hemingway Boeken

Verhalen van binnen- en buitenlandse schrijvers over Parijs.

Begun in the autumn of 1957 and published posthumously in 1964, this work captures the essence of being young, poor, and writing in Paris during the 1920s. Arriving in Paris in 1921 as a correspondent for the Toronto Star, Hemingway found himself amidst a cultural transformation following the Great War. The era was marked by the innovations of Braque and Picasso in cubism, Joyce's completion of Ulysses, and Stein's influential gatherings at 27 Rue de Fleurus, where she recognized Hemingway as part of a lost generation. During these formative years, he collected material for his first novel, The Sun Also Rises, and the masterpieces that followed. The narrative features poignant sketches of his eclectic circle of artists and writers, some destined for fame while others faded into obscurity. It also vividly evokes the Paris that shaped him—a map of streets, cafes, and bookshops where he, often battling cold and hunger, refined his craft. This work serves as both an elegy to the vibrant expatriate community of the twenties and a reflection on the trials and triumphs of the writing life.

Da Amerikaanse schrijver Ernest Hemingway (1898-1961) heeft door zijn manlijke sensitiviteit en zijn expressieve stijl een volstrekt eigen wereld geschapen, een wereld waarin de levensdrift op het menselijk tekort de overhand heeft. Op de na hem komende schrijvers heeft hij grote invloed uitgeoefend. In 1954 won hij de Nobelprijs voor letterkunde. "Wie wint krijgt niets" (Winner take nothing) toont de jonge Hemingway in zijn volle kracht. Het bevat korte schetsen, het genre waarin Hemingway onbetwist een van de grootste meesters van deze eeuw was. Zijn techniek, een uiterste vereenvoudiging van taal, gaat gepaard met de fijne gevoeligheid van de geboren schrijver, die erin slaagt sfeer én mensen met weinig woorden trefzeker weer te geven. "Wie wint krijgt niets" biedt een zeer gevarieerd beeld van Hemingways schrijverschap. Men vindt jeugdherinneringen, bittere schetsen uit de eerste wereldoorlog, verhalen met een zeer milde humor, en ook navrante en oneindig trieste beelden als dat van een Franse immigrantenfamilie. Maar steeds wordt men geboeid door Hemingways sublieme verteltalent.

'Een geweldig en troostrijk boek. Ik ken geen mooier boek over een stad.' - Connie Palmen in DWDD Ernest Hemingway verhuisde in 1921 met zijn vrouw Hadley naar Parijs. De lichtstad, waar hij kennismaakte met illustere persoonlijkheden als Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald en Ezra Pound, zou van grote invloed zijn op zijn schrijverschap. In Parijs is een feest brengt Hemingway de uitbundige stemming van de stad na de Eerste Wereldoorlog op briljante wijze tot leven. In 1964 verscheen dit boek voor het eerst, onder de titel A Moveable Feast. Na de aanslagen van november 2015 werd het opnieuw een bestseller in Frankrijk, in het bijzonder vanwege de ode aan de vitaliteit en veerkracht van Parijs. Deze nieuwe vertaling bevat niet eerder gepubliceerd materiaal, waaronder een hoofdstuk over het einde van Hemingways eerste huwelijk. 'Dit is Hemingway op zijn best. Niemand heeft ooit zo goed geschreven over Parijs in de jaren twintig van de twintigste eeuw als Hemingway.' - The New York Times

Hemingways beste kortverhalen. Een oude man vlucht voor de nacht en de eenzaamheid in een goed verlicht, schoon café. In een kinderkamer wacht een kleine jongen een hele dag op de dood. In een ziekenhuis wordt een radio de poort naar de wereld, en in de Afrikaanse steppe vecht een man tegen de angst voor de leeuw en om zijn eer. Hemingways protagonisten zijn zowel kwetsbaar als sterk, geven weinig om conventies, zijn eenzaam, maar nooit alleen. Ze zijn trotse gewonden die altijd houding bewaren, zelfs in het aangezicht van de dood. Elke van de tien verhalen is een precieze miniatuuropname vol gelijkmoedigheid en stille komedie. Grote, existentiële vragen hangen in de lucht, zonder dat ze direct worden gesteld. Met zijn heldere, beknopte taal en levensechte thema's creëerde Hemingway een volkomen nieuwe vertelstijl. De korte dialogen laten de afgronden van de personages vermoeden, volgens Hemingways ijsberg-theorie: slechts tien procent van een verhaal zou zichtbaar moeten zijn.

This collection gathers his significant writings on various fishing experiences, from trout in northern Michigan to marlin in the Gulf Stream. In A Moveable Feast, he reflects on writing in a Paris café, expressing a desire to remain by the river, a sentiment echoed in his classic story, "Big Two-Hearted River."

From one of the best writers in American literature, a classic novel about smuggling, intrigue, and love. To Have and Have Not is the dramatic story of Harry Morgan, an honest man who is forced into running contraband between Cuba and Key West as a means of keeping his crumbling family financially afloat. His adventures lead him into the world of the wealthy and dissipated yachtsmen who throng the region and involve him in a strange and unlikely love affair.

Robert Jordan, a young American volunteer on the republican side of the Spanish Civil War, has been sent to handle the dynamiting.

In 1918 Ernest Hemingway went to war, to the 'war to end all wars'. He volunteered for ambulance service in Italy, was wounded and twice decorated. Out of his experiences came A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway's description of war is unforgettable. He recreates the fear, the comradeship, the courage of his young American volunteer and the men and women he meets in Italy with total conviction. But A Farewell to Arms is not only a novel of war. In it Hemingway has also created a love story of immense drama and uncompromising passion.

*Winner of the Pulitzer Prize* “A beautiful tale, awash in the seasalt and sweat, bait and beer of the Havana coast. It tells a fundamental human truth: in a volatile world, from our first breath to our last wish, through triumphs and pitfalls both trivial and profound, what sustains us, ultimately, is hope.” —The Guardian The last of his novels Ernest Hemingway saw published, The Old Man and the Sea has proved itself to be one of the most enduring works of American fiction. The story of a down-on-his-luck Cuban fisherman and his supreme ordeal—a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream—has been cherished by generations of readers. Hemingway takes the timeless themes of courage in the face of adversity and personal triumph won from loss and transforms them into a magnificent twentieth-century classic. First published in 1952, this hugely popular tale confirmed his power and presence in the literary world and played a large part in his winning the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature.

A collection of Ernest Hemingway’s works from the early 1920s, including one of his most famous works, The Sun Also Rises, as well as short stories and poems. Ernest Hemingway’s first novel, The Sun Also Rises, is also his most widely acclaimed. Set against the backdrop of Paris café society and the running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain, the novel focuses on the lives of American expatriates in the 1920s. Although the Lost Generation is often considered to have been damaged and dissolute in the aftermath of World War I, Hemingway portrays them as strong characters who are imbued with independence. This leather-bound edition also includes Hemingway’s novella The Torrents of Spring, the short story collection In Our Time (1925), and various other short stories, poems, and newspaper and magazine articles from the early 1920s. A scholarly introduction examines Hemingway’s life and writing career, providing readers with a deeper understanding of his works.

The last uncompleted novel of Ernest Hemingway, published posthumously in 1986, charts the life of a young American writer and his glamorous wife who fall for the same woman.A sensational bestseller when it appeared in 1986, The Garden of Eden is the last uncompleted novel of Ernest Hemingway, which he worked on intermittently from 1946 until his death in 1961. Set on the Côte d'Azur in the 1920s, it is the story of a young American writer, David Bourne, his glamorous wife, Catherine, and the dangerous, erotic game they play when they fall in love with the same woman. "A lean, sensuous narrative...taut, chic, and strangely contemporary," The Garden of Eden represents vintage Hemingway, the master "doing what nobody did better" (R. Z. Sheppard, Time).

In 1959, Hemingway traveled to Spain to write three articles about bullfighting for "Life." This posthumously published text emerged during his late return to the country he cherished as a second home. The work captures his deep appreciation for the culture and the art of bullfighting, exploring themes of bravery, tradition, and the complex relationship between man and nature. Through vivid descriptions and personal reflections, Hemingway delves into the emotional and physical intensity of the bullfighting arena, revealing the profound impact it had on him. The narrative serves as both a tribute to the sport and a meditation on life, death, and the human experience, showcasing Hemingway's masterful prose and his enduring connection to Spain.

Featuring Hemingway's only full-length play, which--like the stories here--grew out of his experiences in and around a besieged Madrid, this volume brilliantly evokes the tumultuous years of the Spanish Civil War. These works, which grew from Hemingway's adventures as a newspaper correspondent in and around besieged Madrid, movingly portray the effects of war on soldiers, civilians, and the correspondents sent to cover it.

Inspired by Hemingway's adventures as a newspaper correspondent in Spain in the 1930s, The Fifth Column and Four Stories of the Spanish Civil War magnificently evokes life in a besieged city over a tumultuous decade.

When In Our Time was published in 1925, it was praised by Ford Madox Ford, John Dos Passos, and F. Scott Fitzgerald for its simple and precise use of language to convey a wide range of complex emotions, and it earned Hemingway a place beside Sherwood Anderson and Gertrude Stein among the most promising American writers of that period. In Our Time contains several early Hemingway classics, including the famous Nick Adams stories "Indian Camp," "The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife," "The Three Day Blow," and "The Battler," and introduces readers to the hallmarks of the Hemingway style: a lean, tough prose--enlivened by an ear for the colloquial and an eye for the realistic that suggests, through the simplest of statements, a sense of moral value and a clarity of heart. Now recognized as one of the most original short story collections in twentieth-century literature, In Our Time provides a key to Hemingway's later works

Ernest Hemingway's classic portrait of the pageantry of bullfighting. 'I was trying to learn to write, commencing with the simplest things, and one of the simplest things of all and the most fundamental is violent death' This is Hemingway's classic portrait of the pageantry of bullfighting. Here are the sights, the sounds, the excitement, and above all, the knowledge, that fuelled Hemingway's passion for Spain and the bullfight. This remarkable book contains some of his finest writing, inspired by the intense life, as well as the inevitable death, of those hot, violent afternoons. 'Hemingway's style, at its best, is a superb vehicle for revealing tenderness of feeling beneath descriptions of brutality' Guardian

"The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber" is a short story set in Africa. It was published in the September 1936 issue of Cosmopolitan magazine concurrently with "The Snows of Kilimanjaro."

Green Hills of Africa is Ernest Hemingway's lyrical journal of a month on safari in the great game country of East Africa, where he and his wife Pauline journeyed in December 1933. Hemingway's well-known interest in - and fascination with - big-game hunting is magnificently captured in this evocative account of his trip. It is an examination of the lure of the hunt and an impassioned portrait of the glory of the African landscape and of the beauty of a wilderness that was, even then, being threatened by the incursions of man.

A second collection of short stories that once again establish Hemingway as a novelist of exceptional power. Hemingway's men are bullfighters and boxers, hired hands and hard drinkers, gangsters and gunmen. Each of their stories deals with masculine toughness, unsoftened by woman's hand. Incisive, hard edged, pared down to the bare minimum, they are classic Hemingway territory.

Chinese edition of "Across the River and Into the Trees," a poignant story about an untimely love for an American colonel much like Hemingway himself and an Italian girl.

Ernest Hemingway never wished to be widely known as a poet. He concentrated on writing short stories and novels, for which he won the Nobel Prize in 1956. But his poetry deserves close attention, if only because it is so revealing. Through verse he expressed anger and disgust—at Dorothy Parker and Edmund Wilson, among others. He parodied the poems and sensibilities of Rudyard Kipling, Joyce Kilmer, Robert Graves, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Gertrude Stein. He recast parts of poems by the likes of Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot, giving them his own twist. And he invested these poems with the preoccupations of his novels: sex and desire, battle and aftermath, cats, gin, and bullfights. Nowhere is his delight in drubbing snobs and overrefined writers more apparent. In this revised edition of the Complete Poems , the editor, Nicholas Gerogiannis, offers here an afterword assessing the influence of the collection, first published in 1979, and an updated bibliography. Readers will be particularly interested in the addition of "Critical Intelligence," a poem written soon after Hemingway's divorce from his first wife in 1927. Also available as a Bison Book: Hemingway's Quarrel with Androgyny by Mark Spilka.

An early gem from the greatest American writer of the 20th century, The Torrents of Spring is a hilarious parody of the Chicago school of literature. Poking fun at that "great race" of writers, it depicts a vogue that Hemingway himself refused to follow. In style & substance, The Torrents of Spring is a burlesque of Sherwood Anderson's Dark Laughter, but in the course of the narrative, other literary tendencies associated with American & British writers akin to Anderson--such as D. H. Lawrence, James Joyce & John Dos Passos--come in for satirical comment. A highly entertaining story, The Torrents of Spring offers a rare glimpse into Hemingway's early career as a storyteller & stylist.

Ernest Hemingway’s most beloved and popular novel ever, with millions of copies sold—now featuring early drafts and supplementary material as well as a personal foreword by the only living son of the author, Patrick Hemingway, and an introduction by the author’s grandson Seán Hemingway. The last novel Ernest Hemingway saw published, The Old Man and the Sea has proved itself to be one of the enduring works of American fiction. It is the story of an old Cuban fisherman, down on his luck, and his supreme ordeal: a relentless, agonizing battle with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. Using the simple, powerful language of a fable, Hemingway takes the timeless themes of courage in the face of defeat and personal triumph won from loss and transforms them into a magnificent twentieth-century classic. Written in 1952, this hugely successful novel confirmed his power and presence in the literary world and played a large part in his winning the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature.

The basis for the forties film classic starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, To Have and Have Not is the dramatic, brutal story of Harry Morgan and his shady efforts to keep his family at least on the crest of the "have nots" by running contraband between Key West and Cuba. Harshly realistic, yet with one of the most subtle and moving relationships in the Hemingway oeuvre, it goes beyond high adventure. As The Times [London] Literary Supplement observed, "Hemingway's gift for dialogue, for effective understatement, and for communicating such emotions the tough allow themselves, has never been more conspicuous."

This book is highlighted in the PBS film "Hemingway" by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, showcasing its relevance and connection to the celebrated author.
