Abstract

This paper deals with some properties of Hemingway's style in
the novel "A Farewell to Arms". The author has examined in detail a sentence whose length has been taken as an example through which the reader can see how much Hemingway is concerned with problems of the so-called inseparable unity of form and sense. The connector and can be understood as a dominant factor in the struct-ure of the analysed sentense. The author discusses in detail the semantic integrity of the used lexical items, their specific distribution and their succession. Owing to these and other facts, the analysed sentence assumes an important
stylistic function in the whole story.
