| Resumen |
Drawing upon personal experience, Herman Melville portrayed seafaring life with a roaring vigor; and the violent story of Captain Ahab, who pursues the ferocious whale in a mad fury of revenge for the leg it had bitten off, is unsurpassed for narrative excitement.
But unique greatness of Moby Dick lies beneath these externals, in the elegance of its allegorical constructionn. Here the while whale symbolizes the powerful forces of the natural universe; Captain Ahab,, doomed to disaster, is am awesome, unforgettable embodiment of human will in futile opposition. |
