	SparkNotes: The Old Man and the Sea: Themes, Motifs & Symbols
		Almost as a reminder of Santiago’s struggle, the sail of his skiff resembles “the flag of permanent defeat.” But the old man refuses defeat at every turn: he resolves to sail out beyond the other fishermen to where the biggest fish promise to be.
		While it is certainly true that Santiago’s eighty-four-day run of bad luck is an affront to his pride as a masterful fisherman, and that his attempt to bear out his skills by sailing far into the gulf waters leads to disaster, Hemingway does not condemn his protagonist for being full of pride.
		The reader notes that as Santiago slays the marlin, not only is the old man reinvigorated by the battle, but the fish also comes alive “with his death in him.” Life, the possibility of renewal, necessarily follows on the heels of death.

	Fictitious diorama of the Santiago Battle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The original plan of Admiral Cervera to engage the American fleet off Santiago de Cuba was to sacrifice his flagship, the armoured cruiser Infanta María Teresa, in trying to disable the American flagship USS Brooklyn.
		The plan was likely influenced by the battle of Lissa in 1866 in which the Italian flagship was sunk by ramming.
		As a result, the Teresa was crippled before she could inflict any damage on the Brooklyn, though the objective of causing confusion in the American line was attained to some extent.

		Soon after daylight on July 2d the enemy opened battle, but because of the intrenchments made during the night, the approach of Lawton’s Division, and the presence of Bates’ Brigade, which had taken position during the night on Kent’s left, little apprehension was felt as to our ability to repel the Spaniards.
		All day on the 2d the battle raged with more or less fury, but such of our troops as were in position at daylight held their ground, and Lawton gained a strong and commanding position on the right.

	The Gatlings at Santiago
		This was the account of the battle that got back to the newspapers in the form of a “scoop,” and it was nothing more nor less than the excited imagination of the only coward who at that time or ever afterwards was a member of the famous Rough Riders.

		This outline of the battle, as laid down by Gen. Shafter on the 30th day of June, was eventually carried out to the letter; its successful operation shut up a superior force in the city of Santiago, and compelled the surrender of the city.
