In 1961 he committed [[suicide]], but was allowed a [[Roman Catholic]] burial, as they ruled he was not fully responsible for his actions due to a mental decline in the last months of his life. − − Hemingway influenced American literature. He helped popularize a style of writing that featured plain language, short sentences, and clean, sparse prose. His writing frequently focused on American expatriates living in Europe or Africa. Leading characters are often very masculinized, somewhat alcoholic, and suffering from mental scars, but they are always in control of themselves. These characters are believed to be based on Hemingway himself. − − {{DEFAULTSORT:Hemingway, Ernest}} − [[Category:Authors]] − [[Category:Nobel laureates in Literature]]
