It is also possibly one of the most mysterious ones in terms of its meaning and what the great poet was truly implying through this simple, melodious work. Traditional analysts have approached it as a straight forward reflection on nature, a poet’s description of a sight that moved his heart in more ways than he had realized at the time. However, I believe that the poem has much deeper meaning than one first perceives. Wordsworth has made a remarkable statement on human nature, ...

In 1941, the influential critic and academic Oscar Cargill wrote what may be one of the most misleading analyses of The Sun Also Rises. While praising what he considered a remarkably symbiotic achievement in style and content, Cargill concluded that Hemingway’s initial entry into the literary milieu was limited in meaning and philosophical depth (Hays, 19).
