“It is, I think, the collective hope of us involved with this volume that—through its authors’ collective experience, intellectual rigor, practical advice, conversational tone, sample syllabi, and enthusiastic encouragement—it inspires future generations of teachers to return to this iconically modernist novel so that students once again have the opportunity to understand its artistry for themselves.”
—from the Introduction

This first volume in the new Teaching Hemingway Series is a collection of richly nuanced, insightful, and innovative essays on teaching A Farewell to Arms from authors with varied backgrounds, including all levels of secondary and higher education. Read separately, the essays contribute to an enhanced understanding and appreciation of this master work. These seasoned instructors offer practical and creative classroom strategies, sample syllabi, and other teaching tools. Contributors include J. T. Barbarese, Brenda Gaddy Cornell, Peter L. Hays, Jennifer Haytock, Ellen Andrews Knodt, Any Lerman, James H. Meredith, Kim Moreland, Jackson A. Niday II, Charles M. (Tod) Oliver, Mark P. Ott, David Scoma, Gail D. Sinclair, Tom Strychacz, Frederic Svoboda, and Lisa Tyler.

Lisa Tyler is professor of English at Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio, where she has taught since 1990. She is the author of Student Companion to Ernest Hemingway (2001) and more than two dozen articles in scholarly journals and edited collections. She also created and maintains Virtual Hemingway, a list on the International Hemingway Society website of hundreds of Heminway-related websites.
