Up in Michigan by Ernest Hemingway and Men in Ireland by William Trevor are the famous authors and the stories they wrote. Although both stories display some remarkable similarities in each of the characters that happened in their lives. One of them started in different settings, Hemingway in a small town in Michigan called the Horton Bay and Trevor in Ireland that left for many years and went to Mullinavat in Gleban village. While both of them has similarities in context, each has a unique style of experiences such as sexual desire, emotional focus and awareness. The disparagement was stuck in both men that is involved in the same way of participation but different situation. The huge perception is related to sex scandals. Hemingway story …show more content…
By highlighting to the reader the differences in Jim and Liz's responsibilities and lifestyles Hemingway may be suggesting or highlighting to the reader that in life both men and women live very different types of lives with it being a case that men rather than females to have the capacity to be independent of others or self-reliant (McManus). Jim Gilmore eventually looks as if to have been driven by his need or desire to have sex with a woman without any meaningful connection and emotion. For instance, the level of relationship of William Trevor story, that the man becomes a homeless beggar because he made so many mistakes in stealing charity box of donations. They lived in different types of lives where the priest blackmails the altar assistant by falsely charging for sexual misbehavior. Asking for forgiveness which Father Meade wants even if he lies about the past and bribe someone just to keep it. Where both stories happen everywhere in our society which people encounter much as what the story was. For example, in Hemingway where there's a woman who totally attract with a man but he won't like her. Instead, he just wants to put in a point that the man intends to get what he wants which is to get to sexual desire. While Trevor story is much more like to other news, that altar attendant's abuse by a priest. And my most response throughout the story was one that is very remarkable in various parts of the
A Proverb once stated, “Opposites attract.” Scientist, chemist, doctors, and even matchmakers around the world know this statement to be true. However in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises, the relationship between Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn proves this statement wrong. Throughout the novel, Lady Brett has many types of relationships with a variety of people, most of whom are men. Some of these men include Jake Barnes, the narrator of the story, Mike Campbell, her supposed husband, and Pedro Romero. Lady Brett’s laid back, independent, and rather promiscuous life style creates many foil relationships with the various men she has affairs with. Brett’s foil relationships sometimes bring out the best qualities in people and other times unfortunately brings out the worst qualities. Throughout the book Lady Brett’s foil relationship with Robert Cohn bring out Cohn’s unpopularity, immaturity, and his possessive and obsessive control over Brett.
"Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while." This quote summarizes Catherine and Henry's love for each other. Even though Catherine died, Henry had a huge space of emptiness left in his heart. Marriages in today's society are very serious relationships although some people don't seem to take them so seriously. Take for example Dennis Rodman, who married Carmen Electra and they divorced a week later. This shows how men are sometimes over powered by looks. My essay contrasts the relationships in Hemingway's Farewell to Arms to the relationships in Steinbeck's East of Eden. E. Hemingway displays a sense of respect for couples whereas J. Steinbeck portrays that women are venerable can't hold a steady relationship. Abra gradually fell in love with Cal and eventually cheated on Aron with his brother Caleb. Cal slowly tries to ruin Aron. Cal influences Abra's thought of Aron by saying sweet things to her. Adam smiled at her. "You're pink as a rose," he said. (590) The passage shows that Cal is trying to romance Abra. He knows Abra is venerable because Aron is away in the army and she misses him. By Aron absent, Abra needs a man and she turns to Cal.
When Meriwether Lewis and William Clark first explored Montana in the early 1800s, they were awestruck by the open plains and delighted by the wide range of animals that roamed the land. After reaching the Great Falls, which is on the Missouri River in what is now Montana (Av2 books).
In “Mr. and Mrs. Elliot”, he says “Mrs. Elliot and the girl friend now slept together in the big mediaeval bed” (Hemingway 88). Without explicitly admitting it, Hemingway implies that Mrs. Elliot and her “friend” are lovers. Based on the vignette preceding this story, this is due to Mr. Elliot’s lack of masculinity. The vignette tells the story of a man who fails in his attempt to kill a bull in a bullfight, showing that he, too, lacks masculinity. This directly relates to “Mr. and Mrs. Elliot” because they both show men who are not manly enough to perform their respective duties. Another example of this is in “Soldier’s Home”, during which a soldier’s transition from war to home is described. He says “Before Krebs went away to the war he had never been allowed to drive the family motor car… Now, after the war, it was still the same car” (Hemingway 70) and “He had learned that in the army” (Hemingway 72). After this story comes a vignette in which two men are seen showing their prejudice towards certain races. “They 're crooks, ain 't they… They 're wops, ain 't they… I can tell wops a mile off” (Hemingway 79). These prejudices most likely derive from the war. The placement of this vignette directly following the “Soldier’s Home” emphasizes how the war can follow people home and alter the ways in which they view the world around them.

Whether it is a book your eyes are glued to or a movie on the big screen, stories are different in numerous ways. Two fantastic stories that are like this are High Noon and The Most Dangerous Game. One takes place on an island, and the other takes place in the Wild West. One is about a criminal seeking revenge on his enemy, while the other is about a man being hunted by a rich, cruel general. These two stories are based on two completely different topics, and they share different, but useful, messages. Although High Noon and The Most Dangerous Game are pretty different, they are more similar than anything else.
We notice, right from the beginning of his life, that Ernest Hemingway was confronted to two opposite ways of thinking, the Manly way, and the Woman way. This will be an important point in his writing and in his personal life, he will show a great interest in this opposition of thinking. In this short story, Hemingway uses simple words, which turn out to become a complex analysis of the male and female minds. With this style of writing, he will show us how different the two sexes’ minds work, by confronting them to each other in a way that we can easily capture their different ways of working. The scene in which the characters are set in is simple, and by the use of the simplicity of the words and of the setting, he is able to put us in-front of this dilemma, he will put us in front of a situation, and we will see it in both sexes point of view, which will lead us to the fundamental question, why are our minds so different?
In the beginning of both of the pieces of literature, the main character(s) have not had the experience that will shape their values yet. Rather, as time moves forward in the stories, the
Arizona has first been explored by a European in 1539. In this year, Marcos de Niza, from Spain, explored parts of the area of Arizona.

There was a legend about the wealthy seven cities of Cibola; seven cities that would be in possession of valuable treasures. Marcos de Niza was informed about Cibola by an Indian informer. When de Niza returned from his exhibition, he claimed he had seen de Seven Cities of Cibola in the distance.
If a reader is given two short stories, two stories that are seemingly different on the surface, to read and compare and contrast, a surprising amount of similarities and differences can be found. Unless they deal with the same subject matter, most short stories aren't really related, until some analysis is done. The stories "A&P," by John Updike, and "An Ounce of Cure," by Alice Munro, are very similar but very different.
Through the characters' dialogue, Hemingway explores the emptiness generated by pleasure-seeking actions. Throughout the beginning of the story, Hemingway describes the trivial topics that the two characters discuss. The debate about the life-changing issue of the woman's ...

Prevalent among many of Ernest Hemingway's novels is the concept popularly known as the "Hemingway hero", or “code hero”, an ideal character readily accepted by American readers as a "man's man". In The Sun Also Rises, four different men are compared and contrasted as they engage in some form of relationship with Lady Brett Ashley, a near-nymphomaniac Englishwoman who indulges in her passion for sex and control. Brett plans to marry her fiancée for superficial reasons, completely ruins one man emotionally and spiritually, separates from another to preserve the idea of their short-lived affair and to avoid self-destruction, and denies and disgraces the only man whom she loves most dearly. All her relationships occur in a period of months, as Brett either accepts or rejects certain values or traits of each man. Brett, as a dynamic and self-controlled woman, and her four love interests help demonstrate Hemingway's standard definition of a man and/or masculinity. Each man Brett has a relationship with in the novel possesses distinct qualities that enable Hemingway to explore what it is to truly be a man. The Hemingway man thus presented is a man of action, of self-discipline and self-reliance, and of strength and courage to confront all weaknesses, fears, failures, and even death.
