The Old Man and the Sea This part of the story has to do with Santiago against nature and the sea. In this part of the story, he goes out and fights nature in the form of terrible forces and dangerous creatures, including a marlin, sharks and hunger. He begins the story on a small boat and sets off on a journey to catch a fish after a long losing streak that lasted eighty-four days. Unfortunately his friend has to abandon him because of this problem and a greater force, his parents. Santiago must face the danger alone. For three hard days and nights he fights a fish of enormous power. This is the second form of nature that he must conquer. At the beginning of the story, the first part of nature is himself, for which he has to fight hunger. This is a tough part of the story. However, he manages to get some morsels in the form of flying fish and dolphins on which he would like to put salt. This part of the story tells of a cold and harsh sea, that is, one that has value and mystery as well as death and danger. It has commercial value as well as the population that lives in it. However it is dark and treacherous and every day there is a challenge. A similar story tells of a tide pool with life called "Cannery Road." This part of the story has to do with Christ figures. It is mainly about Santiago as a figure of Christ and other characters as props, that is, characters who realize the form of biblical themes. The day before departure, when he wakes up, Manolin, his helper, comes to his aid with food and drinks. Another point that could be positive is that he has had bad luck with his lens for a long period of time and he is sure that it will work this time. Later, however, when Santiago needs him for the research he intends to undertake, Manolin abandons him, even though he may not have wanted it at the moment. In the novel Santiago encounters a force greater than his boat, the marlin, which misleads him far beyond his intended reach. This is where it begins to lose its strength against something that appears to have greater strength. Santiago has a three-day fight, which is significant considering the three days of Easter, and he continues to fight even though his goal may achieve nothing. This is another idea through which Christ acted, a struggle to achieve a goal even though it may mean some destruction for himself. This may bring nothing but the satisfaction of doing so and also carries great risks. He finally comes across a painful experience with his hand being in great pain and not moving. This is useful in the place where Christ loses his physical self and has less to deal with. On the third day, he recovers and returns home even though his only remaining treasure was a broken boat, experience, and a ripped marlin. And in the final conclusion, you can see him dragging the mast of his boat, a cross-shaped object, in his hand. This story has a certain sequence of events, first it is a hunter against his prey. This hunter respects his prey. This series of events takes place throughout the book: encounter, battle, defeat and respect for the prey. This is Hemmingway's "Code of Honor". This part of the novel deals with the relationships between two characters. The first to argue are Santiago and Manolin, Manolin is the little follower of the old man named Santiago. Manolin is a little person who follows Santiago and listens to his wisdom. They treat each other hostilely, even though Manolin calls Santiago "old man" and he calls Manolin "boy", which seems to be absurd. In that situation I would consider both of them going to a doctor. The next relationship to talk about would be the one between Santiago and the village, which seems to be much better. He is given credit for the.
