Hi Everyone: I now have a Patreon: www.patreon.com/HorsesPT Get more material and help keep these videos sponsor-free by supporting me over there. On the Patreon, I will be doing a whole bunch of fun, creative stuff that will never be on the KZbin channel, including: -Exclusive Giveaways -Audiobook recordings -Exclusive video essays -Process/BTS videos -Q+A’s -Sneak peeks -and more! Some eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed that none of my videos have sponsors or product promotions. By refusing these “opportunities,” I am able to prioritize the creative process over the whims of advertisers. Supporting me on Patreon is a great way to help all of this happen. Plus, you’ll get all kinds of extra stuff. Thank you for everything!

@@kylewinkler9925 Yeah, and devoted and sincere study of a subject can replace a good bit of personal experience. We could maybe say that having known the pains of life creates that mindset, but that is just a theory. There is a cynical aspect to how so often people who are successful in a very troubled society are the ones who have joined the suffering greatly, so to speak. I don't find that very inspiring, since it is a status quo bolstering activity.

As Vonnegut said in God bless you Mr Rosewater: "Sons of suicides seldom do well. Characteristically, they find life lacking a certain zing. They tend to feel more rootless than most, even in a notoriously rootless nation. They are squeamishly incurious about the past and numbly certain about the future to this grisly extent: they suspect that they, too, will kill themselves." Sadly, I think Hemingway is a prime example of this quote.

When I first read “A Farewell to Arms” I was struck by how “sensitive” it was and as a “sensitive” teenage boy I really enjoyed it. It’s always stuck with me that despite Hemingway portraying himself(and being portrayed) as someone hypermasculine his writing is actually very sensitive and emotional in ways you wouldn’t expect from someone portrayed as a “man’s man”

I know a lot of people can relate to Hemingway. But I can't say how much this means to me. I have schizophrenia, and have also been diagnosed bipolar. Regardless of diagnosis I am okay. Im alive. I quit drinking. I hate my mother too, but I also have come to accept her weaknesses as being separate from my own. I will never kill myself because I have studied philosophy, and logic, and quite frankly read and loved authors like Hemingway, and Salinger, and Fitzgerald. Ive fallen and picked myself up again so many times that I've learned to be okay with the falls. Concussions and alcohol and society have created a paradigm of creating schizophrenics, especially in big cities. I can't explain my whole mind to you, but I can tell you that I love you Horses and your videos are helping me with life. You are a special creator, on a level all your own. ❤

I don't know what ails me, or if anything does as I've not wanted to find out. Though, I can relate to your comment. I was abandoned and left for dead by my biological mother in post-Soviet Russia, then adopted by an extremely religious couple from the US who chose to unsuccessfully homeschool me. My mother was angry, anxious, and controlling to a paranoid degree, so I grew to despise her. She didn't school me. I grew up socially isolated for many years and learned nothing but how to read and I chose to read about history. I became quite good at baseball, however, and was able to guest play for a top high school in my state. I had to fudge my high school "transcript" to get into community college where I educated myself and then transferred to a university where I drank too much, womanized heavily, became proficient at billiards, dropped out, came back, and earned my degree in philosophy. Though I'm a chaotic, insomniatic mess of swirling, meandering thoughts, I've found peace in life. I've really thought hard about suicide and death but could never seem to give up on life because it just seems too damn interesting to be an island of consciousness in the void. I've made my peace with nihilism through striving. I'm enlisting in the military soon to set off on my next adventure with the Army Rangers. May our paths cross one day.

Dude, I don't have schizophrenia, but bipolar. I love and hate my mother, but know whenever she leaves it will be the hardest thing in the world to me. I've hospitalized and had to quit drinking and other drugs many times. I've had severe concussions and injuries from tough sports and outdoor pursuits. The nightmares never truly leave you. I think with age and the wear on my mind and body, I just know I don't want to lose the control and ever be unproductive or get locked up again. I feel much the same about suicide and on life. I've been accused of trying, but I never agreed... I just wanted darkness and peace, to not feel sad/manic or overwhelmed, but never to be as selfish as to want to die. Thanks for your comment and to Horses, I think I know why I've always loved his writing while having mixed feelings about him... but of all people, knowing this should allow us to be a bit more compassionate and empathetic to everyone... because most people, we don't know their full story.

This question actually shoes the primitivity of our „philosophy“. While the rishis (seers) in Vedanta, the Upanishads, discovered Brahman, reincarnation and the Self in deep meditation. Of course one could swipe away all this as primitive or imaginary - BUT knowing there is the nondual Brahman and each and every souls grows back into him like a tree over many births (reincarnations) suicide get‘s quite contra productive: More karma (unfinished tasks in live left) and you reincarnate anyway. To me this kind of western philosophy is so blind compared to the findings of rishis.

What I love about Hemingway is he truly has an ability to put thoughts onto paper, totally unfiltered. That he doesn't explain things in a way that's overly complex, wordy, or otherwise difficult to sort through - similarly he doesn't explain things so simply that you're left rolling your eyes. Rather he shoots the gap tremendously and words everything in a manner that is both so profound but so simple you wonder "how didn't I think of that?" So much of what he writes is so unique in its description, but so familiar at the same time, like there's a constant sense of deja-vu lingering nearby

This video makes me reflect on how much I love my dad. He had a difficult father, and suffered a traumatic brain injury himself when we were in a car accident several years ago, but at every turn he has determined to try to better himself, rather than sink into the darkness. I am proud of him when I think about some of the trauma he must have grown up with that he broke the cycle of, never visiting the same on myself or my siblings, and how he is still with my mother, whom he met in school, married young, and to my knowledge has never cheated on. We may not have been a wealthy family, but you can not put a price on a stable and constantly loving and (mostly) supportive parental unit. I have known people deeply let down and betrayed by their fathers and/or mothers. I take the parenting role so seriously that I have never wanted to take on that responsibility, nor felt adequately equipped to. This video is a reminder that some people should never have kids, and I wish there was some sort of test (as the joke goes, you need a licence to drive, but anyone can become a parent!). Would it have robbed us of his unique writing? I suppose so, but is our entertainment worth the kind of suffering he and his siblings experienced from their malformed nature and nurture? We would never have known what we missed, anyhow.

I've been increasingly more interested in Hemingway as a man, a personality and a legend as time goes by. I've watched the Jeff Daniels HBO documentary on him and I've gotten around to reading The Old Man and The Sea. I've got more Hemingway lined up to read. This video is really charming and I liked it a lot. Too many times a person is oversimplified. Not just the dead. The living too. I suppose it's easier to think of that person as a caricature or as one defined thing because then you won't have to waste mental space on them. The world isn't black and white. Loved the artwork throughout the video! By any chance is it yours? That's a great variety of it and I feel very inspired by it. Anyways, once again, great work. You've earned a new subscriber.

His life is wild! His literature is kinda tame compared to it. These days, he'd be a Crocodile Dundee, or one of those narcissistic vloggers who get cancelled eventually.

That sounds sad, but I prefer someone who has actually something worthwhile to share with humanity than those losers travelling the world with a camera, pretending its Disneyland, adding nothing of value that will be forgotten in less than five years just for the sake of personal greed.

The mental health care provided today is drastically different than at that period. In fact what passed for treating mental health illness in those times would be considered barbaric human rights violations these days. The mentally ill were basically human guinea pigs in the early days of mental health care and basically declared subhumans without agency to become fodder for all manor of experimental treatments. So Hemingway is probably very lucky they were unable to diagnose or "treat" any of his issues.

I think it's a bit of a stretch for the New York Times to say that Hemingway was the most significant author since Shakespeare. They'd have to leave out a lot of Russian masters like Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, and Pushkin, as well as George Eliot, Gustave Flaubert, Marcel Proust, Mark Twain, Walt Whitman, Jonathan Swift, Virginia Woolf, Jane Austen, and quite a number of others, all of whom I think are comparable or better than Hemingway. But Hemingway is a great American writer and this video is a fascinating look into his life, including particularly his struggles. It makes him feel more human.

Thank you for this very insightful video giving us a glimpse into Hemingway the person behind the author, although the two are very much intertwined. I have 2 siblings that are going through their own mental health struggles, and of the little stories they tell of their 'episodes' I can see how painful those moments and sometimes life in general for them are. Earlier today I'd just watched a short video about Vincent Van Gogh which talked about this mental health struggles, and I recognised what he went through with what on of my sibling is currently going through. We live in the same house so we talk a lot but it's very difficult for me to understand what they're going through. We had a short convo this morning and I explained how whenever I hear anyone say they struggle to find their place in their world and question the purpose of their existence, that if they one day leave this world it would be as if they never existed. My reaction has always been why do you need to find a significance? Why do you need to be known? It was a short but deep conversation, and though I understand the words and it's meaning it still doesn't compute for me. For me, my life is like an onion with me at the center, then comes my family, then friends, then acquaintances, I was shown this circle of relationship in school decades ago and it stuck with me. My world is just me and those around me, not the earth or it's 8 billion inhabitance. I had wrote a lot more in my first post by YT didn't save it and I can't wrote it again. I just want to send a message to those on hear that please know you are 'normal' just like everyone else, that your existence does matter to those around you and that if you were ever to make any rash decisions the hurt would remain with them until the day they pass. It's unfortunate that some of us find living more difficult than others and it's okay to feel that way. Please seek the help you need or talk to your companions, friends or family. My love to all of you.

Great video! And the 'manic mood swings' is on point. George Plimpton wrote of the time he visited Hemingway a few years before the suicide. A drunken Hemingway demanded they box and Plimpton had no choice but to agree (or else Hemingway would've beat the shit out of him anyway) while frantically thinking how to get out of it. They squared off, and Hemingway hit Plimpton with a jab then socked him with a left. Plimpton immediately asked "How'd you do that?" A confused Hemingway stopped and said "What?" Plimpton said: "I didn't see that left coming; how'd you set up for that?" And, SNAP, right away Hemingway changed from aggressive boxer to patient teacher and spent the rest of the evening teaching Plimpton how to throw punch combinations. Indeed, we should always look deeper than the labels.

It's so easy to edit out all the bad in Hemingway, especially after having read so much of his work. A lot has been written and said about him. You did a good job in filling in some of the holes. Thanks, man.

Great video!!! My college literature teacher called me into his office and said, “ You are barely making a C in my class but you are capable of making an A. Why?” I was honest and told him that his assignments of Hemingway and Carson McCullers were horribly depressing and that I thought they needed help. (Disclaimer; I acknowledge the immense talent of these troubled artists.)

That’s a good quote to end on. Being that after his father’s death the ground shot away from him. He was always looking at death which is the winter of life. He was always on the cusp never fully in summer or spring because he always had his fall on his mind.

Since the day my brother took his own life, I avoided this video as much as I could. Another video by Horses called "Oh Death" was also suggested to me by the algorithm and I avoided it at all cost. Up to the point of clicking the "don't recommend this to me". Yesterday was the anniversary of my brother's passing, and I never really understood why someone so talented, an artist, who would always crack jokes and make us laugh, would eventually take his own life. We never saw the depression in him. It was so well hidden. Yesterday I started asking myself why some people just want to die. The video "Oh Death" came to mind. I clicked it and this came the next. It never answered my question as to why my brother decided to end things at his own terms. But for some reason, I found peace. Thank you, Horses.

Thank you for making this video! I knew nothing about Hemingway and this was amazingly informative, not to mention relatable. Being bipolar and working in the creative field, I can relate to his experience of going through short periods of prolific output (and adventures!) in between long stretches of NO JUICE. While I appreciate having the creativity and the works produced, it's hard to justify the price I've had to pay. Great youtube content unfortunately doesn't seem to top up my juice, however it does serve to enrich my life while requiring next to no effort of my own. Instead of crying in front of my keyboard I get to fill my brain with cliff notes on every subject in video format! Many thanks for that. I presume most youtubers of the genre wouldn't bother doing a video on him because they'd sound ridiculous saying "un-alive" so many times... Props for dedicating to your content over monetization.

I've been to Hemingway's former residence in Cuba. It is full of the things he left behind when he returned to the US after the revolution there. It feels frozen in time. Well-made video. There's no doubt his parents, head trauma and bad genetics lead to a toxic and tragic end.
