Brett, the beautiful divorcee who has turned the French capital into a platform between two trains.

Key Points: 
  • Brett, the beautiful divorcee who has turned the French capital into a platform between two trains.
  • Ernest Hemingway brings together all of them, and the bullfighter Pedro Romero, a transcript of the Niño de la Palma, in the Pamplona of The Sun Also Rises (1926).
  • Oral sources declare that the red pañuelico (scarf) worn around the neck on feast days is reminiscent of his fate.

Origin and history of Sanfermines

    • The history of the Sanfermines would take too long to recount.
    • The ritual of the txupinazo, the explosion of a rocket that starts the fiesta, was devised at midday on the 6th of July 1939.
    • But this isn’t the only tradition that occurs during the Sanfermines.
    • In fact, it can be said that it is precisely Hemingway’s literary recreation of the Sanfermines that shaped what we know today.

Pamplona was a moveable feast

    • Another underlying theme is the mood, which makes The Sun Also Rises an emblem of what Gertrude Stein called the “lost generation”, traumatised by the First World War.
    • Jake’s wound thus invites a symbolic reading, and points to an evil that is not exclusive to him.
    • That is what the characters seek, a binge of adventure and exoticism with three obvious manifestations: the aforementioned sexual tension, bullfighting and drinking.

Hemingway and the Sanfermines

    • The Sun Also Rises wasn’t the only thing that Hemingway wrote about Pamplona.
    • He would later mention the fiestas in Death in the Afternoon, 1932, his book on bullfighting.
    • Hemingway was able to see this for himself after a long hiatus.
