The Abington Sun

Join Health Humanities and Dr. Miller, a professor of english literature here at Abington, for a talk surrounding Ernest Hemingway and his writing. Professor Miller will discuss how the son of a midwestern doctor becomes, seemingly overnight, the Father of Modern American Prose. As Ernest Hemingway discovered Paris and art during the 1920s, his childhood experiences with his physician father and the world of early 20th century Modernism and medicine inspired his earliest and most celebrated stories. An assessment of these stories illuminates methods for arriving at more definitive medical diagnoses, ones that consider both the physical and the emotional dimensions of what it means to be human.
