Sports are always games which bullfighting never is; it is a tragedy where both the bull and matador must act with courage in the face of their opponent and ultimately come to an unjust end upon the bull's loss. It is this intimacy with death and the dignity of its participants that fueled Hemingway's Spanish bullfighting obsession appearing here in 1932 and in The Sun Also Rises.<br /> <br /> Complete with over eighty black and white photographs Hemingway combines his awe for Spanish culture with one of the most meticulous analyses of bullfighting covering its history stars technique and moral implications. Follow Hemingway in realizing "all stories if continued far enough end in death" as he draws the American public into his great love. <br /> <br /> This copy is a first edition first printing with all first printing points present. <br /> <br /> Girssom A.10.1.a; Hanneman A10a.

1932183551New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1932. The first appearance of a hallmark theory of literary criticism First edition of this prolifically illustrated contemplation of bullfighting handsomely bound by the Chelsea Bindery. In this work Hemingway introduced his famous iceberg analogy of writing marking his first published statement on the theory of omission crucial to the understanding of his fiction: "If a writer of prose knows enough about what he is writing about he may omit things that he knows and the reader if the writer is writing truly enough will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water" p. 192. Hemingway spectated his first bullfight in 1923 at the festival of San Fermin at Pamplona igniting a passion he revisited for the rest of his life and inspiring the events of The Sun Also Rises 1926. Explaining the important literary and aesthetic significance that bullfighting held in his heart Hemingway writes "the only place where you could see life and death i.e. violent death now that the wars were over was in the bull ring and I wanted very much to go to Spain where I could study it. I was trying to learn to write commencing with the simplest things and one of the simplest things of all and the most fundamental is violent death" p. 2. The book affectionately called the bible of bullfighting made Hemingway "the leading exponent of the corrida outside the Spanish-speaking world" Meyers p. 117. Octavo 224 x 157 mm. Colour frontispiece after a Cubist painting by Juan Gris with captioned tissue guard bull vignette on title page and 81 half-tone photographic illustrations with facing descriptions. Finely bound by the Chelsea Bindery in black morocco spine lettered and decorated gilt raised bands single rule to boards gilt marbled endpapers roll to turn-ins gilt edges. A fine copy.
