roles, he says, either to "maintain self-esteem" or to
escape, is one Hemingway exploits extraordinarily well in A
Farewell to Arms and therefore it "is his richest and most

Although the fall of Adam and Eve is different from that of Enkidu, there are distinct similarities between the two.

Gender In As You Like It
Number of words: 397 - Number of pages: 2.... fear there will-
We’ll have a swashing and a martial outside,
As many other mannish cowards have
That do outface it with their semblances.
