O knihe

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: A, Rutgers The State University of New Jersey, language: English, abstract: The paper examines the relationship between an author's excessive consumption of alcohol and the resulting implications on their literary work. The paper specifically finds the role of alcohol and applies the ideas found to Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

My argument will begin with the subsection, "Establishing Fact and the Role of Alcohol" where I first prove the alcohol-rich lifestyle of Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. My second subsection "Unintentional Consequences: Hemingway's Harm" primarily focuses on Hemingway, and shows the reflection causing the characters to make poor decisions and the use of alcohol as an escape from reality. Then, my argument continues in the subsection "Attack of the Clones: A Reflection of Fitzgerald's Life Experiences" where I discuss the reflection of the author's life into his characters. My argument wraps up in the conclusion where I examine the evidence presented to fuse the physical and literary worlds.
