Abstract

In the book "Hemingway and Agamben: Finding Religion Without God" by Marcos Antonio Norris, the author explores the philosophical and religious orientation of Ernest Hemingway. Norris argues that Hemingway should not be strictly categorized as either a Christian writer or an atheist, but rather as a "secularized theist," combining elements of both belief systems. Norris examines Hemingway's upbringing, experiences during World War I, and conversion to Catholicism to support his argument. He also analyzes Hemingway's literary works, highlighting the presence of religious ideas without reducing the author to a definitive believer or unbeliever. Overall, Norris's book provides a nuanced and insightful perspective on Hemingway's relationship with religion. [Extracted from the article]
