Herman Melville :an introduction

خط فهرست نويسي و خط اصلي شناسه

This unique introduction explores Herman Melville as he described himself in "Billy Budd" - 'a writer whom few know'. Moving beyond the recurring depiction of Melville as the famous author of "Moby-Dick", this book traces his development as a writer while providing the basic tools for successful critical reading of his novels. Using the extraordinary 'Agatha' correspondence with Nathaniel Hawthorne as a key to Melville's writing practices, beliefs, and inclinations, this volume introduces Melville as a writer who constantly reflected on his craft and experimented with new forms and genres. Arranged chronologically, the volume focuses on "Typee", "Moby-Dick", and "Billy Budd", as well as other novels, short fiction, and poems, to explore Melville's distinctive narrative style. A biography, summaries of key works, interpretation, commentary, and an extensive bibliography are all included.
