(Abstract)As a literary critique of Ernest Hemingway's f faretyejj fo frmf. this essay aims at de(ming the characteristics of Frederic Henry and Catherine Barkier, the main characters in the novel, by analyzing their personalities.Hemingway joined the World War 1 , and, while participating in the Italian battle field as an ambulance officer driver, he got heavily wounded there after only a few months since his military duty began. For him it was an unfortunate incident, as he volunteered to fright for justice. While he was hospitalized for his wounds, he happened to meet an American nurse of German origin who was seven yEars older than him, but his first love with the nurse was not successful. With this war experience, both mental and physical, focusing on romantic matters in love, Hemingway wrote the novel and published it in 1929 at the age of 30. This novel became one of the best sellers, and accordin91y Hemingway became a famous fiction writer not only in America but also in Europe.The main character, Frederic Henry made Catherine Pregnant while in serious love. The pregnancy made him decide to escape with Catherine from military duties and regulations; actually he chose his status to be an AWOL in the army. After his escape into Switzerland, both Frederic and Catherine enjoyed happiness for a short Period of time in idyllic atmosphere on the mountain side of Switzerland. But they were doomed to have a birth in the hospital, in which the baby was breathless and never cried, and it died soon. What is worse, Catherine suffered from hemorrhage out of Caesarian section, and bleeding never stopped, When Frederic visited Catherine's hospital room to see Catherine, he found that her life was hopeless She died very soon when he was staying by her bed. There was no way for Frederic but to leave her behind.Frederic is no more than an irresponsible but somewhat courageous man who could abandon his military duty for his love with Catherine. He had his own typical conscience whether going for military duty or for fulfilling his private, Personal happiness in love. Finally he chose love. In the novel, Hemingway su99ests that anyone in the happiest moment must concern himself about the Power of universe that is wandering around to destroy happy life: actually nature has two sides: Positiveness and negativeness. In other words, it has not only constructive vitality but also destructive aspects. Frederic Henry can be said to be the very figure of Hemingway himself or the realistic Personnel whom Hemingway expected and desired of a lover, confronting the hardship of affec-tionate love which occurred between young military officer and a nurse in the battle field.To a certain People love affair is more important fact than any other one, even military compulsive duty. Ironically, however, in the final chapter of the novel, Frederic Henry suffers from the destroyed love by the death of Catherine I assume that Hemingway described the last part of the novel well. when he says that Frederic is walking back to the hotel in rain, leaving Catherine behind. Rain symbolizes both life-river and life-destroyer. On deep observation, we can say that this novel is not a complete tragedy but a semitragedy or tragi-comedy, unlike Romeo and Juliet in which hero and heroine die by committing suicide. At any rate, Catherine is survived by her lover, Frederic Henry.From a realistic Point of view on a similar situation, the ending of this sort of love affair is possibly the common tendency in some respects among the people of today.
