欧内斯特·米勒尔·海明威（Ernest Miller Hemingway），1899年7月21B —1961年7月2日，美国小说家。海明威被誉为美利坚民族的精神丰碑，作为“新闻体”小说的创始人，一向以“文坛硬汉”著称。其早期长篇小说《太阳照常升起》、《永别了，武器》成功塑造了美国“迷惘的一代”。20世纪三四十年代，他塑造了摆脱迷惘、悲观，为人民利益英勇战斗和无畏牺牲的反法西斯战士形象（戏剧文学《第五纵队》、长篇小说《丧钟为谁而呜》）。20世纪50年代，《老人与海》塑造了以桑提亚哥为代表的“人可以被消灭，但不能被打倒”的“硬汉形象”，并由此获得1954年的诺贝尔文学奖。海明威崇尚简洁的写作风格，对20世纪美国乃至世界文学的发展有着极其深远的影响。
