The Old Man and the Sea”
1. Introduction
“The Old Man and the Sea” is the masterpiece of Hemingway, owing to which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1954. It recovered Hemingway’s literary image when many critics believed that his talent was dead. Life artistically recurred in the book and it revealed the philosophy of life. Hemingway’s thinking about human life and society is contained in it. Among all his works, Hemingway liked “The Old Man and the Sea” the most.

Why is Santiago so prominent compared with other characters that Hemingway moulded? Why is Santiago regarded as the perfect code hero who reflects the perfection of character traits? This paper will explain these questions through the analysis of Santiago’s character. The first part of this paper is a brief introduction. In the second part, the character of Santiago was analyzed.
