Hemingway was born in Oak Park, Illinois. He was strongly influenced by his family, especially his father who liked hunting and fishing and always took little Hemingway for trips. So he had wide interests such as football, boxing, fishing andwasenthusiastic about “adventures”. After graduating from high school in 1917, he worked as a reporter for the Kansas City for a few months and then left to volunteer for Red Cross ambulance severer on the Italian front where he wounded physically and mentally in 1918 during the World War I. After the end of the war, he came back to America and worked for a Chicago commercial journal, where he met Sherwood Anderson, who introduced him to the Canadian Toronto Star as a correspondent in Paris. In a sense, Anderson was his guide in style. Gradually Hemingway made friends with such literary celebrities as Gertrude Stern, T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, and Ezra Pound and did benefit a lot fromtheir schooling. His journalistic practices and hard work in writing began to evolve a distinct style of his own and together with it a Hemingway theme with a Hemingway hero.

摘要
欧内斯特·海明威是美国著名的小说家和短篇故事家，是“迷惘的一代”的杰出代表，也是第六届诺贝尔文学奖获得者。小说《老人与海》是美国著名作家海明威的晚期作品，也是他的代表作之一，主要讲述了捕鱼老人圣地亚哥的一次捕鱼经历。海明威的小说以塑造海明威式英雄主义人物而闻名，小说《老人与海》的主人公圣地亚哥也是一个典型的海明威式英雄。本篇论文将主要分析作者海明威是如何在《老人与海》这篇小说中表现英雄主义的。这也正是本论文研究的主要目的。首先，分析老人圣地亚哥分别与大自然，与命运和与他自己的战斗。其次，将老人圣地亚哥与其他海明威式英雄人物对比，看看有哪些相同之处，有哪些独特之处。然后，从小说中出现的其他意象中分析老人圣地亚哥的英雄主义形象，如著名的棒球选手，小男孩和经常出现在老人梦中的狮子。最后，讨论老人圣地亚哥的英雄主义是否具有现实意义。此次研究将深入探究小说《老人与海》中老人圣地亚哥的英雄主义形象。
