The arrows are facing the wrong way. Most people wil find it easier to start at the top and go DOWN.

In the “Old Man and the Sea” by Ernest Hemingway, Santiago’s solitary existence and his relationship with nature contribute to understanding how one can balance our interest in succeeding with a sense of empathy and caring for others. This is shown through the process he undergoes, in which one 1) feels a sense of respect and kinship toward the animals he is meant to hunt/obstacles to his success, 2) struggles with the reality of his duty due to his humanization of their opponents, and finally 3) dehumanizes those opponents in order to acclimate himself to the necessities of their reality. However, one eventually realizes and accepts that even dehumanization cannot staunch their regret, and that the guilt is, and must always, be inextricable from the act of harming another living being.

In this quote, Santiago (Who’s speaking? To whom? About what? What is the narrator describing here? What topic is being discussed here?)

"Then he began to pity the great fish that he had hooked. He is wonderful and strange and who knows how old he is, he thought. Never have I had such a strong fish nor one who acted so strangely. Perhaps he is too wise to jump. He could ruin me by jumping or [48] by a wild rush. But perhaps he has been hooked many times before and he knows that this is how he should make his fight. He cannot know that it is only one man against him, nor that it is an old man. But what a great fish he is and what will he bring in the market if the flesh is good. He took the bait like a male and he pulls like a male and his fight has no panic in it. I wonder if he has any plans or if he is just as desperate as I am? " -Pgs. 19-20
