Exploring Emptiness (Śūnyatā) In Hemingway’s “A Clean, Well Lighted Place,” And “In Another Country” The idea of Emptiness(Śūnyatā) strike in my mind while reading Shankar Lamichhane pro- review on Parijat‘s ―Shris ko phool‖ . This paper is outcome of my longing to explore Emptiness embodied in Hemingway‘s writing. Emptiness is a profound Buddhist philosophy that has passed many controversies over time and still an unsolved issue. , like so many other philosophical argument. However, Hemingway tries to manage adoptive balance on this concept, or at least he shows us the way his characters revolves round the paradigm of such an unsolved concept. This paper serve purpose to understand selected works of Hemingway and analyze the way he treats the concept of Emptiness. To that end, my research will rely on two selected stories – ―A Clean, Well-Lighted Place‖ and ―In Another Country‖, which I think is very remarkable among Hemingway‘s works. The theme of Emptiness finds theoretical ground in both of these short stories, but it‘s displayed in different ways: loneliness, alienation , desire of war, aging , insomnia, and others. All of these are the concert detail representing abstract concept of Emptiness and are thematic base to grasp Hemingway‘s work. This paper will begin by introducing the idea of Emptiness and then explain how it appears in these selected work of Hemingway.
