A Case of Identity: Earnest Hemingway
The recognition of Hemingway as a major and representative writer of the United States of America, was a slow but explosive process. His emergence in the western canon was an even more adventurous voyage. His works were burnt in the bonfire in Berlin on May 10, 1933 as being a monument of modern decadence. That was a major proof of the writer’s significance and a step toward world fame.
To read Hemingway has always produced strong reactions. When his parents received the first copies of their son’s book In Our Time (1924), they read it with horror. Furious, his father sent the volumes back to the publisher, as he could not tolerate such filth in the house. Hemingway’s apparently coarse, crude, vulgar and unsentimental style and manners appeared equally shocking to many people outside his family. On the other hand, this style was precisely the reason why a great many other people liked his work., A myth, exaggerating those features, was to be born.
After his death in 1961, the literary position of the 1954 Nobel Laureate changed significantly and has, in a way, even become stronger. This is partly due to several posthumous works and collections that show the author’s versatility — A Moveable Feast (1964), By-Line (1967), 88 Poems (1979), and Selected Letters (1981). It is also the result of painstaking and successful Hemingway research, in which The Hemingway Society (USA)has played an important role since 1980.
Another result of this enduring interest is that many new aspects of Hemingway’s life and works that were previously obscured by his public image have now emerged into the light. On the other hand, posthumously published novels., such as Islands in the Stream (1970)and The Garden of Eden (1986), have disappointed many of the old Hemingway readers. However, rather than bearing witness to declining literary power, the late works confront us with a reappraisal and reconsideration of basic values. They also display an unbiased seeking and experimentation, as if the author was losing both his direction and his footing, or was becoming unrestrained in a new way. These works reveal a complexity that may cause bewilderment or relief, depending on what perspective one adopts.
选项
A、To prove reading Hemingway has always produced horror.
B、To prove reading Hemingway has always produced strong reactions.
C、To illustrate they could not tolerate such filth in his works.
D、To illustrate they could not tolerate his vulgar and unsentimental style.
答案
B
解析
根据原文“To read Hemingway has always produced strong reactions”,在这一主题句之后,提及海明威父母的阅读体验,作为佐证,旨在说明海明威的作品能够引发强烈的反应。解题时要弄清楚主题句和佐证之间的关系,所以正确选项为B。
