Death Knot of the Old Man and the Sea

Everglow

In the old man and the sea, although Hemingway did not give Santiago a death ending, the shadow of death is everywhere in the whole novel. The biggest difference between the old man and other heroes is that he has surpassed death to a large extent. It is precisely this way that the spiritual power of the self is inspired and affirmed, telling us that the greatest significance of life is that it will never be constrained by death.

  The old man is a kind of heroic figure in a sense. So what if you're not young anymore? So what if you're not strong anymore? But he can still kill the big fish, and the spirit lives on.
