Ernest Miller Hemingway est un auteur américain reconnu, né le 21 juillet 1899 à Oak Park, dans l'Illinois. Il est le deuxième de six enfants d'une famille dirigée par le Dr Clarence Hemingway et Grace Hemingway. Son père, un homme discret, lui a transmis son amour pour la nature et les activités de plein air, en particulier la pêche et la chasse, ce qui aura par la suite une influence sur ses écrits.
La vie aventureuse d'Hemingway débute tôt alors qu'il devient reporter au Kansas City Star en 1917. L'année suivante, il s'engage comme chauffeur d'ambulance sur le front italien pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, où il est gravement blessé. Cette expérience servira de base à son roman, "A Farewell to Arms" (L'Adieu aux armes). Après la guerre, il épouse Hadley Richardson en 1921, et en 1922, ils déménagent à Paris où il travaille comme correspondant étranger.
À Paris, Hemingway rejoint la communauté d'expatriés de la "génération perdue" des années 1920, côtoyant des figures notables telles qu'Ezra Pound et Gertrude Stein. Leur influence, ainsi que ses expériences pendant la guerre gréco-turque, contribuent grandement au développement de son style d'écriture économique et distinctif. Ses premiers travaux publiés, dont "Three Stories and Ten Poems" (Trois histoires et dix poèmes) et "In Our Time" (Dans nos débuts), voient le jour durant cette période.
La vie d'Hemingway est marquée par une série d'échecs conjugaux. Il divorce d'Hadley Richardson en 1927 et épouse Pauline Pfeiffer. Après leur divorce, il épouse Martha Gellhorn en 1940, mais ils divorcent également. Son quatrième et dernier mariage est avec Mary Welsh en 1946, qui durera jusqu'à sa mort.
La carrière littéraire d'Hemingway est jalonnée de nombreux succès, dont le prix Nobel de littérature en 1954 pour son roman, "The Old Man and the Sea" (Le Vieil Homme et la Mer). Ses œuvres, connues pour leur style littéraire concis, mettent en scène des personnages courageux et solitaires, reflétant sa propre vie aventureuse et ses expériences. Parmi ses œuvres les plus célèbres figurent "The Sun Also Rises" (Le Soleil se lève aussi), "A Farewell to Arms" (L'Adieu aux armes), "For Whom the Bell Tolls" (Pour qui sonne le glas) et "The Old Man and the Sea" (Le Vieil Homme et la Mer).
Malgré ses succès, la vie d'Hemingway est également marquée par la tragédie. Il survit à deux accidents d'avion en Afrique en 1954, ce qui le laisse dans la douleur et la mauvaise santé pour le restant de ses jours. Hemingway se suicide le 2 juillet 1961, à son domicile de Ketchum, dans l'Idaho, à l'âge de 61 ans.
