Ernest Hemingway?s first major novel, The Sun Also Rises follows American and British expatriates in France and Spain in the years following World War I. The novel electrified the literary community of the 1920s and was a popular success; it advanced Hemingway?s public celebrity and solidified the modernist style for which he would be recognized twenty-eight years later when he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. This edition provides an introduction, textual notes, a chronology, a bibliography, and six appendices of materials from the early twentieth century that will assist readers in interpreting The Sun Also Rises. This volume also addresses long-standing issues with the original editing of the novel and concerns about its portrayals of Jewish people, Black Americans, women, and others.

Ultimately, this Broadview Edition assists readers in understanding a work whose references and contexts have been obscured over its one-hundred-year existence, and it also opens up opportunities for new interpretations of this landmark novel.

About this title

Synopsis

Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises (1926) electrified many in the literary community of the 1920s, was widely read, and inspired college students dress and talk like the central characters. It also helped to advance Hemingway’s public celebrity and to solidify his modernist style for which he would be recognized 28 years later when he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. This edition provides an introduction, textual notes, a chronology, a bibliography, and six appendices of materials from the early twentieth century that will assist readers in interpreting The Sun Also Rises as it might have been read in its day but also as we might understand it now. The volume pays particular attention to behavior and speech in the novel that has been viewed as problematic (e.g., potential anti-Semitism) and offers readers some resources for exploring their meaning and effects both then and now. It also introduces the context of the 1918-19 influenza pandemic, proposing that, like World War I, this catastrophe has resonance for the novel; it may also encourage connections for current readers who now share the experience of enduring a global pandemic.

This Broadview Edition assists readers in understanding a work whose references and contexts have been obscured over its 100-year existence, and also opens opportunities for new interpretations of this landmark novel of American literature and modernism.

Store Description

Broadview: An Introduction The word ?broadview? expresses a good deal of the philosophy behind our company. Our focus is very much on the humanities and social sciences?especially literature, writing, and philosophy?but within these fields we are open to a broad range of academic approaches and political viewpoints. We strive in particular to produce high-quality, pedagogically useful books for higher education classrooms?anthologies, historical texts, sourcebooks, surveys of particular academic fields and sub-fields, and also course texts for subjects such as composition, business communication, and critical thinking. We welcome the perspectives of authors from marginalized and underrepresented groups, and we have a strong commitment to the environment. We publish English-language works and translations from many parts of the world, and our books are available world-wide; we also publish a select list of titles with a specifically Canadian emphasis. Broadview: The Company Founded in 1985, Broadview Press remains a fully independent academic publisher owned by approximately twenty-five shareholders?almost all of whom are either Broadview employees or Broadview authors. Broadview is supported by a collaboration with Trent University, a liberal arts university located in Peterborough, Ontario?the city where Broadview was founded and continues to operate. As a company, we strive to produce high-quality, pedagogically useful books, while upholding fair business practices in relation to our authors, our staff, the academics who choose Broadview books for their courses, and the students and others who purchase and read our books. We at Broadview believe that ethical and socially responsible conduct is an essential obligation. This commitment underlies all aspects of our operations, from the selection of books that we publish to the choice of paper on which we print those books.

Broadview handles production and distribution of its books through its Peterborough, Ontario, facility. Sales and editorial acquisitions are carried out through its offices in Guelph, Ontario; Wolfville, Nova Scotia; Calgary, Alberta; and Nanaimo, British Columbia. The company has over 800 titles in print, and currently publishes approximately 30-40 new titles per year.
