Frederic Henry’s perspective and attitude about war changes drastically in this story by Hemingway. How and
why does Henry’s change happen? Write a reflective essay in which you explain Henry’s change in thinking
about war and connect this to a personal experience where you underwent a significant change of perspective,
how and why this change happened, and how this benefited your life. The essay’s thesis statement and body
contents should refer to A Farewell to Arms and clearly state the connection. The conclusion should refer back
to A Farewell to Arms too.
Note: Henry’s change in perspective about war has nothing to do with Catherine or romance!
Thesis statement: Your introduction’s thesis statement must include story title and author (A Farewell to Arms
by Hemingway), the controlling ideas of Henry’s change and your change, and why this is important. Do not
use announcements such as “In this essay…”.
The essay should be 1 typed page in length and include essay structure with an introduction, body and
conclusion paragraphs. Proofread and edit carefully for correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
