While making a fictional journey in Ernest
Hemingway s realm one would be totally captured by
the way in which the characters sometimes strive to
endure the most dreadful circumstances life
unwittingly generates. This is a world populated by
a new type of fictional idol, a modern-day hero, who
consciously directs his own life by following a
certain code of survival. He is placed in a world of
plain nothingness, where in some way looses the most
important element of his existence his identity.
Ordinary characters bullfighters, boxers, fishermen
tend escape from the morally wounded world. It is
interesting to follow the act of liberation of these
protagonists in some of the short stories and novel
signed by the great writer. And the paths lead to
another stage of artistic manifestation, to
Postmodernism, a celebration of decentralized ideas,
where multiple versions of reality and identity can
co-exist. Can we find the traits of the Hemingwayan
Code Hero in a blockbuster movie like Fight Club?
The director presents a fictional Everyman embodying
the common crisis of the self, the most durable
problem of this society.
