It’s official! I’m going to Cuba!
I'm happy to announce my paper on Ernest Hemingway has been approved for the 17th International Hemingway Colloquium. The conference will be held June 20-23, 2019, at the Finca Vigia, Cuba.
My paper is titled, "The Old Man and the Spree: What Two of Hemingway's Favorite Pastimes Reveal about His Later Outburst of Writing Success."
On April 16, 2019, I received this email from Prof. Rebecca Johnston:
Hello Roscoe,
I am forwarding the email I sent out today to those accepted, I am happy to say your name was on the list.
I look forward to presenting my paper. My research focuses on Hemingway's comeback as a writer. It offers a fresh look at some of the contributing factors to his success with his final book of fiction that was published before his death. Although critics have presented a number of possible reasons for the success of The Old Man and the Sea, this paper will highlight the role of regression in his final writing spree. Specifically, it will show how his success in 1952 may have been influenced on some level by two of his favorite pastimes: boxing and fishing.
