There are only a few hours left until the end of the event, whose academic session is taking place in the Universal Art Building of the National Museum of Fine Arts.

From there, participants will delve into the history preserved in the pages of the book “Hemingway’s Havana and Other Stories,” by Cuban journalist, writer, and essayist Ciro Bianchi, and will visit the San Geronimo University College in Havana.

The academic program of the 20th Ernest Hemingway International Colloquium also includes the presentations “The Presence of Botany in the Finca Vigia Collection” and “Panarchy, Learning, and Transformation in the “Great River of Two Hearts.”

Ernest Hemingway and His Relationship with Geography, and Hemingway’s Anti-Fascist Struggle will be other research projects highlighting the author of The Old Man and the Sea (1952).

This journey through the life and work of the Nobel Prize winner in Literature includes the tour “Hemingway’s Havana,” with visits to Sloppy Joe’s Bar and Floridita Bar.

The event, which began last Wednesday and will conclude tomorrow, provides a platform for exchanging information with specialists and institutions affiliated with the museum that bears the writer’s name, as well as for comparing recent works about his life and work.
