Hemingway weather

Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea is particularly familiar to everyone. It tells the story of an old fisherman, Santiago, who has been dying for decades and has been teased and sympathized by people around him. However, he never gave up, still went fishing every day, persevered and did not hesitate, and finally caught a big fish on the 85th day.

This big fish, eighteen feet long and weighing 1,500 pounds, is too big for the old man's small fishing boat. The appearance of this fish proves the strength of the old man and brings him excitement, happiness and satisfaction. However, the whole process has gone through hardships, and the result is even more regrettable.

In the past three days, the old man paid a heavy price for every victory he won, until he finally suffered irreparable failure. I can't be calm for a long time after reading it. Today, I want to talk about this world-famous classic.

Everything about him is old except his eyes. But the sea blue pupil is happy, as if it had never been defeated.

The Old Man and the Sea is only 100 pages, and the story is simple and clear. There are no twists and turns in the structural arrangement. In the process of the old man's struggle with marlin and shark, there are many descriptions of the old man's psychological activities and language actions, as well as his understanding and judgment of wind and waves, currents and weather, which show us the vivid characters of the old man Santiago.

From working in vain for more than 80 days, to the appearance of Marin, and then to returning empty-handed, the tough guy image of the old man appeared vividly in front of us. As we all know, Hemingway's Santiago is by no means an ordinary loser. He is confident, tenacious, brave and unyielding. "It is foolish not to give any hope," he thought. Besides, I think it is even a sin. Therefore, although he faced almost irresistible challenges again and again, he still struggled with extraordinary perseverance and wisdom, step by step towards success, and at the same time he was getting closer and closer to failure.

However, "a person can be destroyed, but not defeated". No matter how hard the environment is, the old man has defended the "dignity of the human soul" and showed his extraordinary patience. So, here, he is a victorious loser and a failed hero.

The Gulf of Mexico in The Old Man and the Sea has always been described by the author as a sea of women. Because it flows quietly and slowly from beginning to end, there is no storm or whirlpool, even when the old man fights with the shark, it is still calm. It always looks at the old man steadily like a "tough guy", quietly and quietly. I like gentle company and prefer silent support.

However, it looks like a woman, with a gentle appearance, but it has infinite power, both unheard of marlin and ferocious and lustful sharks. So unfathomable, full of hope, full of temptation, and endless challenges and hardships. At this moment, you seem very confused, you can't see its emotional color, and you don't know which side it is biased towards.

Therefore, this vast and unknown sea area is a real sea, which means the world people live in. Here, it doesn't control anyone or anything, just let everything develop naturally with personality with calm eyes and warm arms.

This big fish plays an important role in the work. Its appearance gives people hope and comfort, is a generous reward after paying, is a goal that encourages us to keep fighting for it, and is a beautiful ideal that is difficult to achieve but irresistible.

In the story, although the old man caught the marlin and spent three days with it, he always seemed to regard it as a friend. From the beginning, what the old man said to himself, as well as his mood and tone when he "spoke" to the marlin, made his relationship with the fish closer and closer. Especially when he struggled with the sharks that followed, this marlin really became his friend. A little tragic, sharing weal and woe.

At that time, in a sense, the old man not only protected the fruits of his own labor, but also met his "friends" and "brothers" in the vast sea with perseverance, tenacity and courage like him. It is both powerful and beautiful.

Sharks, in the story, represent destructive power, which is obvious. Who would have thought that the old man was firmly tied to the boathouse after a long test, but he was attacked by sharks again and again on his way home? However, the fact is really so cruel.

Finally, although the old man defeated them in turn, his fish still couldn't stand their maw attack. When the old man came home, this 1500-pound marlin had only a huge skeleton left.

Although sharks are hateful, they are something we can't get rid of in this life. It is a fetter that prevents us from approaching the beautiful ideal, and it is a collection of all kinds of destructive forces, which requires us to fight against it unswervingly in order to achieve our goals. Just like old San Diego, do your best.

The lion has appeared several times in the story, and there is not much ink, but from the end of the story, "Old Man dream of the lion" can feel the importance of this intention.

The fishing life of the lion and the old man is far away. They belong to the spiritual nourishment of the old man and the baseball game that the old man mentioned again and again in the sea. It does not have the tenderness and passion of the sea, the lust and cruelty of sharks, but it has its own unique self-confidence and majesty, which sets off the extraordinary spiritual world of the elderly.

It is precisely because of this spiritual wealth that the elderly can face setbacks, the spirit of not giving in to evil and not giving up in the face of suffering. All these should be examples for us to learn.

The Old Man and the Sea is a novella written by Hemingway 195 1 in Cuba. 1953 He won the Pulitzer Prize for this novel. 1954, he won the world Nobel Prize in Literature with this book. Hemingway, the author, is also known as the "tough guy" in American literature because of the frequent appearance of "tough guy" images in his works.

At the same time, to some extent, Hemingway is the most loved by China readers among all Nobel Prize in Literature laureates in the past century, and The Old Man and the Sea is well known by Chinese people.

I like this great work very much and want to pay tribute to Hemingway with this article.
