Detailed explanation-1: -"Any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.” This famous quote was borrowed as the title of the war novel For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway published in 1940.
Detailed explanation-2: -’Never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee’ is a phrase from one of John Donne’s most famous pieces of writing, but it’s not a work of poetry.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is also in reference to the fact that all of humankind is connected and so when one person dies, it has an effect on all of humanity. This idiomatic saying was first used in 1623 and was written by a man called John Donne who was a poet and who is credited with coining the term.
Detailed explanation-4: -Ernest Hemingway wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls in Havana, Cuba; Key West, Florida; and Sun Valley, Idaho, in 1939. In Cuba, he lived in the Hotel Ambos Mundos where he worked on the manuscript. The novel was finished in July 1940 at the InterContinental New York Barclay Hotel in New York City and published in October.
