Hemingway’s Code HeroA hero…..
must be courageous but must avoid death at all costs
does not have self-pity, but he does have self discipline and control
realizes death is in all things, therefore, he tries to live life fully
is a person of action practices humility—doesn’t discuss his
achievements faces his greatest trial alone and tests himself
to his limit.
