Answer:
Ernest Hemingway writes his short story, "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber," in the third person omniscient point of view. Throughout the story, Hemingway shifts the perspective of the point of view--the thoughts and feelings reported by the narrator--from character to character. Readers do not have access to what every character is thinking and feeling at the same time. That access shifts for each episode in the story's action. The flashback of the lion hunt is told mainly from Francis Macomber's perspective, which gives his experience of the hunt primary significance. At key points, however, Hemingway shifts the perspective to the thoughts and feelings of the lion--relating the exact same action from the perspectives of both Macomber and the lion. Alternating between their perspectives provides strong comparisons between Macomber and the lion. The contrasts shown between their perspectives serves to highlight and emphasize Macomber's fear and display of a cowardly character.
