- Literary Criticism
Through incisive analysis of Melville's lush prose, John Reeves traces Melville's development as a writer: from an examination of the exuberant, innovative style of the early autobiographical tales, Typee and Omoo; through a complex interpretation of Moby Dick that focuses on the exploration of Spinoza's philosophical theories; to a discussion of the narrative skill that reached its culmination in his last masterpiece Billy Budd.
A valuable contribution to the study of 19th-century American literature, this cogent, concisely written text brings refreshing clarity to the understanding of Melville's creation of new fictional genres of artistic expression.
