beginning a desperate and philosophical search for meaning. Like The Inferno, The Moviegoer is set in a Catholic liturgically important time and spans the length of a week.

The Sun Also Rises written by Ernest Hemingway is an accurate portrayal of the “lost generation” of young adults who had to once again discover who they really were after much disillusionment and a lost sense of purpose following World War I.

Within the story, Brett Ashley, Robert Cohn, and Jake Barnes have no specific goals for themselves, but

A philosophical search consists of four major components: a significance, an acknowledgement of something missing, hope of finding it and actually executing the search. To consider some-thing to be significant, it must relate to the person searching in an emotional stance; without emo-tions there would not be a reason to search. Emotions require meaning behind something in order to flare up. After finding significance, a person must then acknowledge the existence of what they are missing. In the

With further observations of various works, readers learn that this biblical pattern of Eden, Eden lost (the Fall), and Eden regained (redemption) can be seen many times throughout literature. Barr’s definition of an “Echo of Eden” is: an “awareness that the world we live in is broken and fallen”. There
