About this product
Product Information
The exotic and poetic beauty of the bull-fight has captured the imagination of observers and readers for decades. No book has explained and disseminated this ancient art with as much power as Ernest Hemingway's "Death in the Afternoon". Since its publication in 1932, this classic study has shaped American notions of Spain and the Spanish art of bullfighting. In her definitive study of Hemingway's masterpiece on bull-fighting, Miriam Mandel not only addresses Hemingway's fascination with taurine matters, but also annotates the forgotten historical, political, artistic, social, religious, and financial backgrounds of the years between World War I and the Spanish Civil War. Intended for readers who require information about the persons, animals, and cultural artifacts mentioned in "Death in the Afternoon", this volume offers several hundred entries, arranged alphabetically and thoroughly cross-referenced for easy access to all pertinent information. A must for Hispanists, bullfight enthusiasts, and all readers and teachers of Hemingway and of twentieth-century literature and history.

Reviews
It would be easy to overlook Death in the Afternoon; most of us think of Hemingway as a writer of fiction; it would also be easy to overlook a bulky, substantial reference work devoted to Death in the Afternoon. Both oversights would be a mistake., ...this ambitious and comprehensive volume helps explain one of the key enigmas of modern literature-Hemingway's unique style....Mandel's annotations will help us comprehend the depth of Hemingway's knowledge of art and politics, of life and style, of history and tauromachy. Even diehard aficionados will learn more than they might care to admit they didn't already know, thanks to Mandel's indefatigable research...Ambitious; relentlessly thorough; scholarly in the best and broadest sense; punctilious; extremely useful, no matter how many taurine merit badges you have; politically fearless and astute...; historically and geographically savvy; linguistically sophisticated-the work is virtually faultless....There is so much positive and positively useful material here that one must cheer for a job well done., Hemingway is a minimalist, full of allusions. Mandel traces them all, and her data expands the book and makes it ring with life, like the bullfight itself...No academic or public library should be without this guidebook, which is highly recommended for readers of all levels., It would be easy to overlook Death in the Afternoon ; most of us think of Hemingway as a writer of fiction; it would also be easy to overlook a bulky, substantial reference work devoted to Death in the Afternoon . Both oversights would be a mistake.
