A
Farewell to Arms- a book of reforms In the book, 'A farewell to
Arms', Earnest Hemingway, has found a truth
of maxim that love is really
universal beam of light like the glittering flame of the sun which is
beautified being coherent with the absorption of infra-red radiation and which
created suffering by its utmost potentiality of mental distortions. Henry's
heart has stirred to a great extent due to immature departure of Catharine from
this ephemeral world. He has understood that man's life is ornamented with the
perfection of human knowledge. He believes the theory of human imperfection of
knowledge and so, he is fickle- minded in nature. Henry thinks that he has
achieved the base of life due to love of Catherine who has directed the way to
lead life controlled and cleanly. He had observed corruption, falsification,
bribing, and tortures of the innocent people that made him bewildered
self-centered and deviated from soldier's life. At that time, according to him,
army life was such where cruelty and rudeness were the prime factors to lead
their separate entity. When he was involved with Catherine's ideology, he had
to turn over a new life, which was filled with the dreams of bright future
ahead.
Hemingway has occupied a
great off-planet in the sky of modern novel and it is he who has dimensionally
been dedicated to contemplate human psychology with different critics and
sensible aspects of life in a penetrating and blood-and-guts manifestation by
bringing contrast of feelings for metaphorical representation and reflections
of factual events. In his almost all novels, he has correlated the sense of
using different strategies of love as enunciated with cruelty and to show the
ethics of human conflicts and contrasts by bringing similarities and
dissimilarities of human attitudes with symbolic ethics and the tremendous
beauties of forceful happenings what is ordered and disciplined. In ornamenting
different characters, he has intensified his views regarding nature by bringing
contrasts with human conflicts and attitude in question. He was a personality
of philosophical distinctness with which he was well versed in trimming the
common thing into the depth of illuminated realm that is sequentially a
criterion of critical study of life being mammoth, intensive and a realm based
on wide range of truth and preponderated. It has duly stirred the heart of the
readers in view of its beauty of truth to expand the maxim of human problems
and its widespread solutions. Hemingway was the
greatest author to ornament the
characters in modern diction with regard to definitive situation in the realm
of ideal sequence of life.. He was the only personality who had scrutinized
firstly the dimension of human psychology and added the increased truth of
beauty inside the literary feelings in most objective manner. That is to say,
the author has tried heart and soul to intensify war with love by contrast,
conflicts and representation of metaphor with critical realm of the sphere
relevant to socioeconomic condition at that time virtually.
In this connection, a few
lines composed by Benjamin Franklin, an American statesman, scientist, inventor
and a famous author is worth mentioning:
" For want of a nail, the shoe was lost
For want of a shoe, the horse was lost,
For want of a horse, the rider was lost
For want of a rider, the battle was lost
For want of a battle, the kingdom was lost
And all for want of a horseshoe nail"
