چکیده:
In Hemingway''''s fiction, death becomes a significant issue which contrastively
pairs off with life. His works attest to the fact that life receives its real
meaning when pitted against death. Therefore, the most recurrent motif in all of
Hemingway''''s works has been the subject of death and violence, only to intensify
human life and consciousness. In Hemingway''''s works, for life to continue to have
meaning, the death experience must be repeated again and again. The tension must
be maintained or the protagonist ceases to be an individual, and becomes part of
the mass. One may conclude that the consciousness of death shatters the banality
of everyday existence, and liberates man from the petty mentality of the
ordinary life. Moreover, by interiorizing and humanizing death, man can
apparently deprive it of its character as restriction upon his freedom.
