The character missing "For Whom the Bell Tolls" For Whom the Bell Tolls
The only man that I hear in the novel by Hemingway, but we do not see anything for the scene is over de Palencia. Comes to us an imperfect picture of him as reconstructed by the other characters in the book like a broken mirror offers only fragments of a whole that you can not redial. Pablo considered finished only as the man it was linked to his wife when he was still alive, brought him respect as a matador because he knows that was an important man in the life of Pilar but I can not help feeling a sense of satisfaction to the idea that now she is with him being able to win to his memory. In view of Primitivo, which matches the common thought, Finished is a matador level not exceptional, and he has no heart nor understanding and exchange with all the shallowness, not considering the fact that he had received several shots from finished bulls in the arena 'had been wounded and had caused a slow but inexorable death. The last point of view is the same Pilar, who passionately recalled her man and speaks with warmth, can do as a lawyer defending the commonplace that he had courage and was too low so if you do not have the bullfighter. She gives good arguments to the behavior of her lover, so they seem to convince the audience about the character of Finished. The picture of the character, however, is always incomplete and the reader an idea of man is part of a person who would willingly another job, who understands the fear of the bull in the arena but can not escape the necessity of fighting it is to meet the danger with this consciousness that finished more than welcomes Pilar Pablo, his current partner. There is also a side
Finished and drama of his life that is worth much to describe: his body is marked by scars inflicted by the bulls in the arena that have undermined health. He constantly loses blood from the lungs, continually dipping handkerchiefs in the last period of his life, this detail on which Hemingway keeps coming back with Pilar, who recalled clearly that this probably has scored. The drama, therefore, is in the state of health in its finished and seeing very similar to the bull's head wrapped in a shroud to the last party he will attend the "Club Finished". The passion and the fate of the animal are a warning to the person about what will happen shortly thereafter; died not only in the arena the bull by the hand of man, but it is the same man to be the victim of gratuitous violence and unnecessary. Finish is a kind of martyr who sacrifices himself for the amusement of the audience, who began his career as a matador to survive but it is crushed and lives with an awareness of all this dramatic escape from which would, in fact, during the banquet in his honor he does not accept to see the bull's head because it lies outside the arena, where the meeting should be confined to the animal and the massacre that follows, and continues to deny doing the show wrecked dinner. Finished
is dramatic because it was near death. His life ends the first novel in a long time ago, and he lies in a reality that no longer exists, evokes the world of the first movement, ie before the Civil War. He is part of a reality and then mythologized as a character does not work only for himself, he is the remembrance and representation rather than a real man. Since he is a representation and a mental reconstruction that is expressed in the memory turns out to be a different man from the other, a public character, a familiar face and known as well as a theatrical mask behind which you can not see or do not want to see; hence the denial of Primitivo that "if he was too short to not have groped the bullfighter." He is a myth rather than a real person and a member of something otherworldly, overshadowed by the reality of the conflict, the guerrillas do not know the life they live and feel disappointed that it is a silent presence and cumbersome, and no one is able to liberate and that even try to imitate.
