内容説明
Ernest Hemingway's lifelong fascination with baseball finds its ultimate expression in "The Old Man and the Sea". This work brings together many of the commentaries that contributed individually and collectively to an understanding of baseball's role in the fiction. They exhibit the extent of Hemingway's familiarity with the sport and its participants; provide historical annotation on players and managers; explore the complexities of Santiago's relationship to Joe DiMaggio; identify the actual games and events underlying the fictional account; and enable readers to determine the aptness of baseball to Hemingway's theme of courage and determination. The writers whose work appears here agree that Hemingway, acclaimed as both athlete and artist, frequently sought to transform the evanescence of sport into the permanence of art.
