"Out of Season" is a short story written by Ernest Hemingway, first published in 1923 in Paris in the privately printed book, ''Three Stories and Ten Poems''.〔Oliver (1999), 324〕 It was included in his next collection of stories, ''In Our Time'', published in New York in 1925 by Boni & Liveright. Set in Italy, the story is about an expatriate American husband and wife who spend the day fishing, with a local guide.〔Oliver (1999), 254〕 Critical attention focuses chiefly on its autobiographical elements and on Hemingway's claim that it was his first attempt at using the "theory of omission" (iceberg theory).〔Steincke (1992), 61-62〕 ==Background and publication history== In 1922, Hemingway moved to Paris as international correspondent for ''The Toronto Star''. He met Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald and James Joyce, and Ezra Pound,〔Desnoyers, Megan Floyd. ("Ernest Hemingway: A Storyteller's Legacy" ) JFK Library. Retrieved September 30, 2011〕 and he was quickly "trading boxing and tennis lessons for Pound's advice on writing".〔Cohen (2003), 107〕 Pound's friendship extended to promoting the young author, placing six of Hemingway's poems in ''Poetry Magazine''.〔 Six months later the "great suitcase debacle" occurred,〔 when on her way to meet Ernest in Lausanne, Hadley's suitcase was stolen at Gare de Lyon train station. All of his manuscripts, including duplicates were lost.〔Reynolds (2000), 26〕 Hemingway was furious but Pound told him he had only lost "the ''time'' it will ... take you to rewrite the parts you can remember ... If the middle, i.e., ''FORM'', of the story is right then one ought to be able to reassemble it from memory ... If the thing wobbles and won't reform ... then it never ''wd.'' have been ''right''."〔Smith (1996), 41〕 Hemingway did not write again until visiting Cortina d'Ampezzo the following spring,〔Johnston (1984), 68〕 when, after a fishing trip he wrote "Out of Season", as he says "right off on the typewriter without punctuation".〔Nolan (1999), 45〕 He cut out the story's ending, which he meant to be tragic, on his theory of omission that "you could omit anything if you knew you omitted () and the omitted part would strengthen the story".〔 Expecting the birth of their first child, the Hemingways returned to Toronto in October.〔Baker (1972), 15–18〕 During their absence from Paris, Bill Bird's Parisian Three Mountains Press published Hemingway's first work, ''Three Stories and Ten Poems'', which contained "Out of Season".〔 In 1925 the story was reprinted in the New York edition of ''In Our Time'', published by Boni & Liveright.〔Tetlow (1992), 47〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Out of Season (short story)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
