Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 – July 2, 1961) was an American novelist, short-story writer, and journalist. He was part of the 1920s expatriate community in Paris known as "the Lost Generation", as described in his memoir A Moveable Feast.July 21 1899July 21961 Americannovelistshort-story writerjournalistexpatriate ParisLost Generation memoirA Moveable Feast Ernest Hemingway, c. 1900

First novels and other early works After the war, Hemingway returned to Oak Park. Driven from the United States in part due to prohibition[citation needed], in 1920, he moved to an apartment on 1599 Bathurst Street, now known as The Hemingway, in the Humewood-Cedarvale neighborhood in Toronto, Ontario.[6] During his stay, he found a job with the Toronto Star newspper. He worked as a freelancer, staff writer, and foreign correspondent. Hemingway befriended fellow Star reporter Morley Callaghan. Callaghan had begun writing short stories at this time; he showed them to Hemingway, who praised them as fine work. They would later be reunited in Paris.prohibitioncitation neededBathurst StreetHumewood-CedarvaleTorontoOntario[6]Toronto Starforeign correspondentMorley Callaghan

The Forty-Nine Stories In 1938 — along with his only full-length play, titled The Fifth Column — 49 stories were published in the collection The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine Stories. Hemingway's intention was, as he openly stated in his foreword, to write more. Many of the stories that make up this collection can be found in other abridged collections, including In Our Time, Men Without Women, Winner Take Nothing, and The Snows of Kilimanjaro.The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine StoriesIn Our Time Men Without WomenWinner Take NothingThe Snows of Kilimanjaro Some of the collection's important stories include Old Man at the Bridge, On The Quai at Smyrna, Hills Like White Elephants, One Reader Writes, The Killers and (perhaps most famously) A Clean, Well-Lighted Place. While these stories are rather short, the book also includes much longer stories, among them The Snows of Kilimanjaro and The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber.Hills Like White ElephantsA Clean, Well-Lighted PlaceThe Snows of KilimanjaroThe Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber

Francisco FrancoFrancisco Franco and the Nationalists defeated the Republicans, ending the Spanish Civil War in the spring of 1939. Hemingway lost an adopted homeland to Franco's fascists, and would later lose his beloved Key West, Florida home due to his 1940 divorce. A few weeks after the divorce, Hemingway married his companion of four years in Spain, Martha Gellhorn, his third wife. His novel For Whom the Bell Tolls was published in 1940. It was written in 1939 in Cuba and Key West, and was finished in July, 1940. The long work, which takes place during the Spanish Civil War, was based on real events and tells of an American named Robert Jordan fighting with Spanish soldiers on the Republican side. It was largely based upon Hemingway's experience of living in Spain and reporting on the war. It is one of his most notable literary accomplishments. The title is taken from the penultimate paragraph of JohnSpanish Civil War Key West, FloridaMartha GellhornFor Whom the Bell TollsJohn

Later years One section of the sea trilogy was published as The Old Man and the Sea in 1952. That novella's enormous success satisfied and fulfilled Hemingway. It earned him the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. The next year he was awarded with the Nobel Prize in Literature. Upon receiving the latter he noted that he would have been "happy; happier...if the prize had been given to that beautiful writer Isak Dinesen", referring to Danish writer Karen Blixen.[16] These awards helped to restore his international reputation.The Old Man and the SeanovellaPulitzer PrizeNobel Prize in LiteratureKaren Blixen[16] The Old Man and the Sea

Judged not me ntally responsible for his final act, he was buried in a Roman Catholic service. Hemingway himself blamed the ECT treatments for "putting him out of business" by destroying his memory; some medical and scholarly opinion has been receptive to this view, although others, including one of the physicians who prescribed the electroshock regimen, dispute that opinion
