Sounding The Whale: Mobydick As Epic Novel,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Sounding the Whale is Christopher Stens comprehensive account of his own close encounter with MobyDick. Originally a long, selfcontained chapter in The WeaverGod, He Weaves: Melville and the Poetics of the Novel, just published by Kent State University Press, this chapterbychapter study of MobyDick evolved as a book within a book. Sten argues that Melville not only was familiar with the traditional forms of narrative but that he refined them and appropriated them to his own original purposes. For MobyDick, he fused the heroic qualities of the ancient Homeric epic with the spiritual qualities of the early modern form found in Dante and Milton, then cast the whole enterprise in an unprecedented poetic prose form. Thus he formulated the first prose epic of its kind, and the only religious epic on the subject of whaling anyone is likely to write. As Melvilles most ambitious novel, MobyDick requires careful and responsive reading. For a clear understanding of the intricacy and depth of Melvilles story, of the subtleties of the quest, one is likely to need a guide. This book is that guide.
