Ernest Hemingway and the Fluidity of Gender presents fresh insight into the gender
issues and sexual ambiguities that have always been present in Hemingway's work, utilising
a variety of historical, socio-cultural and biographical contexts. Offering a close
analysis of the gender issues and sexual ambiguities present in Hemingway's work,
this book provides insight into the position of white middle-class women in America
from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century, illuminating Hemingway's androgynous
impulses and the attitudinal changes that occurred during Ernest Hemingway's lifetime.
Women and gender were Hemingway's steady concern; his fictional females are drawn
with the same kind of complexity and individuality like his fictional males, manifesting
endurance, stoic courage and grace under pressure. This volume highlights Hemingway's
textual world's resistance of patriarchal phallocratism and his abolition of the binaries
of masculinity/femininity, passivity/activity and the like, dismantling binary oppositions
involving gender and sexuality. Exploring the metamorphosis of American social and
cultural history, this volume unravels the stereotypical myths associated with womanhood
and the complexity of women in Ernest Hemingway's novels. Tania Chakravertty is the
Dean of Students' Welfare, Diamond Harbour Women's University, West Bengal, India.
