Appreciation of Moby-Dick⏹American epic: one of the world’s greatest masterpieces: an encyclopedia of everything,history, philosophy and religion etc.⏹Shakespearean tragedy: man fighting against naturePlotCall Me Ishmael Ishmael, A thoughtful but gloomy young man, Ishmael begins his odyssey in New Bedford, Massachusetts, a prosperous whaling town and crossing point to the island of Nantucket(楠塔基特岛). Queequeg, a fierce-looking harpooner(叉鱼者)covered with tattoos(纹身)and carrying a tomahawk(美洲印第安人用的战斧)and a shrunken head. They sign the ship’s papers, but on their way back to the inn to get their belongings, they meet Elijah(以利亚), a shabbily dressed old man who haunts the docks.Elijah hints at the dangers to come and warns the two not to get involved with the vengeful captain. The Quest The Pequod leaves Nantucket on Christmas day headed for the whaling grounds in the Pacific. Captain Ahab remains in his cabin for several days, while the crew accustoms itself to life at sea. When Ahab does emerge, his appearance startles Ishmael.A long, white scar runs down Ahab's face, and he walks on an artificial leg made of whalebone. Soon he calls the entire crew together and informs them that their voyage will be no ordinary whaling cruise. Ahab has returned to sea with the sole purpose of finding and killing the whale that took his leg on the previous voyage. He offers a sixteen-dollar gold piece to the first man who spots the white whale, Moby-Dick, and drink to the death of the whale.The ChaseCaptain Ahab●“a grand, ungodly, godlike man,”●two things about Ahab, captain of the Pequod in Moby-Dick:●Ahab was orphaned when he was twelve months old,●one of his legs was lost as a result of his most recent whaling voyage.●The wound is so fresh that the stump(残肢)is still bleeding. Ahab does not make aproper appearance in the book until Chapter 28.

Herman Melville (1819 - 1891)Herman Melville (1819-1891) was born in New York City in 1819. His parents were of middle-class family background. Because of unwise investment, his father went bankrupt, and then went mad and died in 1832 when Melville was 13, leaving the family with large debts. Melville dropped out of school shortly after his father's death and went to work at the age of 15 in a variety of trades, a bank clerk, a salesman, a farmhand, a school teacher and in 1839 he decided to become a seaman, first signed on to a merchant ship that was going from Boston to Liverpool, England, and then in 1841 signed on for a long whaling journey to the South Seas. Melville did not find the sea life pleasant, for he saw much of injustice that occurred aboard the ship. After a year and a half at sea, Melville and a friend deserted their ship in a Pacific island. But they were captured by Typees, a Polynesian cannibal tribe. They stayed with cannibals for some time and then escaped separately. Melville returned home in 1844. His life at sea proved to be very important for Melville. He once said that a whaling ship and the extensive reading he did while he was at sea was his Yale and Harvard.Melville’s early works are basically a reflection of his varied life experiences. Therefore, it will be difficult to understand his works without knowing his life story. The world in Melville’s fiction mirrors the world he saw—defined by the rough seas and widespread evil. Anyone who boards his ships should have lost innocence already and should expect the unexpected. What he can count on are love of brotherhood, which is in keeping with Melville’s social vision. In many of Melville’s works, we can see another characteristic of Melville’s works, that is, his universe is the single-sex universe, all males and no females.Appreciation of Moby-DickMelville is best known as the author of one book, Moby-Dick, which is one of the world's greatest masterpieces. It is an encyclopedia of everything, history, philosophy, religion, etc. in addition to a detailed account of the operations of the whaling industry. But it is first a Shakespearean tragedy of man fighting against an overwhelming force in a hostile environment. It is a symbolic voyage of the mind in quest of the truth and knowledge of the universe, a spiritual exploration into man's deep reality and psychology. Whaling is a perfect metaphor for the pursuit of knowledge.Stylea. The use of allegory and symbolismInstead of putting the battle between Ahab and the whale into a simple statement of facts, Melville uses a lot of symbols and expresses rich allegorical meanings.For example, the crew members on the Pequod are made up of the white, red, black, yellow, and brown races. It is a microcosmic微观世界的, 微观的presentation of multicultural society of the United States, or even of the whole human society. The voyage to discover Moby Dick becomes a search for truth or the ultimate force governing the cosmos. The whaler, which represents human society, is defeated by Moby Dick, which represents nature. This tragic defeat suggests that by no means can human society be compared to nature.b. The production of the first American prose epic. An epic is generally a long poem on an important theme. Although the book is presented in the form of a novel, at times it seems like a prose poem. (这部表面看似杂乱无章、结构松散的皇皇巨著被冠以各种形式的名字:游记、航海故事、寓言、捕鲸传说、有关鲸鱼与捕鲸业的百科全书、美国史诗、莎士比亚式的悲剧、抒情散文长诗、塞万提斯式的浪漫体小说)c. LanguageDifferent levels of language use and styles may confuse the readers at first, but they turn the whole book into a symphony with all musical instruments going on to form a melody.Moby-Dick is Melville’s most famous novel. Just like Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, Moby-Dick is highly ambiguous.Critics understand it in strikingly different ways.First, it can be understand as a tragedy of man fighting against an overwhelming force in an indifferent and even hostile environment. Thus, Captain Ahab亚哈is a hero who dares to fight though he failed at last.Secondly, it can be understood as a bitter satire on Transcendentalism’s emphasis on self-reliance. Captain Ahab believes in his own power too much and thus he is doomed to fail, because human’s power is limited and there is a mysterious thing exists in the universe which controls man’s life and cannot be understood by human being.Thirdly, it also can be understood as a tragedy of Ahab because of his blasphemy亵渎神明的行为, which causes the death of him and all his crew except Ishmael. Therefore, Ahab is the symbol of evil, while Moby Dick is the symbol of God or some supernatural power.Lastly, nowadays some people think that the story means man should protect the nature otherwise man will be punished as those whalers in the story were punished by the whale.In my personal opinion, I believe the third understanding is more reasonable. Hereafter, I will give you an explanation in the light of the third understanding.The Biblical and historical references of the names in Moby-DickIn Moby-Dick, All the names, including those of the members of the Pequod's crew and the names of all the ships, are carefully chosen. They are either biblical in origin or have some other historical references. Therefore, an analysis of some major names will help us greatly to understand the themes of the novel.Ishmael以实玛利:亚伯拉罕之子,在以撒出生后被弃。

白鲸简介 Moby-Dick

白鲸简介 Moby-Dick

Hello everyoneToday the story I am going to share is about a man----Capitan Ahab and a mammal---- white whale Moby-Dick. Maybe some of you are not familiar with this novel yet, so before entering the topic we can recall another novel first----The old man and the sea. Both as the well-known American novels Moby-Dick and The old man and the sea share a lot of similarities and difference. They both tell the story of man and nature, as well as sea hunting. But unlike the fortitude character Santiago, Ahab is cold lonely stubborn selfish and he is shaped into the embodiment of evil.With these first impressions of Moby-Dick, let’s start to read this novel.My presentation is divided into three parts: the synopsis; the author and the theme.First is the synopsis. I just choose a very very brief version today to help you to get familiar with this novel. You can find a more detailed version in our textbook, page 188.Captain Ahab, who, having lost a leg in an earlier battle with White Whale, is determined to catch the beast and destroy it. He and his sailors live a dramatic life at sea. They kill lots of whales but Ahab refuses to turn back until he has killed his enemy. Eventually, the white whale appears, and they begins doomed fight against is. On the first day, the whale overturns a boat, on the second it swamps another. when the third day comes, Ahab and his sailors manage to plunge a harpoon into it, but the whale carries the Pequod(the boat)alone with it to its doom. All on the board the whaler get drown, except one, Ishmael, who survives to tell the truth.Then is something about the author Herman Melville.LifeBorn in New York City in 1819, Melville’s childhood was very happy until he was 11 years old when suddenly his father died in debt. He dropped early and tried all kinds of jobs----banking, farming, clerking, and teaching. When all this failed to offer him a decent livelihood, he went to sea.There are three things which deserve to mention in his life and going out of sea isone of them. (The other two is his marriage and his friendship with Hawthorne).Restless and venturesome by temperament, Melville shipped as a cabin boy on a merchant vessel to England in 1839, when he was only twenty years old. At twenty-two he signed for a voyage on the whaler Acushnet. This voyage did not prosper and he with another youth named Tobias deserted the ship in a remote pacific island. His adventures led to his literary career. His experience on the sea furnished him with abundant material for fiction. Here are some of his famous works.Typee(1846)was a romanticized account of his stay among the Polynesians.Omoo(1847)the sequel of Typee was about his adventures on Tahiti and other islands.Redburn(1849)was based on his first voyage to EnglandWhite-Jacket(1850)and Billy Budd(1891)were based on his brief career in the navy.People always say it is these works lay a strong foundation for Moby-Dick.StyleHerman Melville was influenced by several writers and I will focus on two who we have learned before: James Fenimore Copper and Ralph waldo Emerson.Copper is the author of the last of the mohicans. An distinguished feature of his works is Grand scene narrative which was also well reflected in Moby-Dick. As Melville himself said in Moby-Dick “to write a mighty book you must have a mighty theme.”Here he had it----the rebellious struggle of Captain Ahab against the overwhelming, mysterious vastness of the universe and its awesome, sometimes merciless force.Melville was deeply influenced by transcendentalism. He advocates natural and natural religion. According to transcendentalism, nature is god; god is unbeaten; nature needs human’s fear. In his novel the sea and Moby-Dick are the symbols of a mysterious supernatural power and can be considered as the physical manifestation of God's presence. In this novel a priest repeatedly chanting “But the Lord provided a great fish to swallow Jonah” which shows the transcendentalism thoughts of author.The white whale is like a white angel fighters sending by god to punish human and the anti-hero Ahab is made to warn human that nature cannot be conquered. Ahab’s whaler and artificial limb are made by whale bones which symbolizes the destruction and conquest of nature by human. But at the end of the story, nature punishes human----both Ahab and his whaler are destroyed.ThemeMoby-Dick is considered one of the world’s greatest masterpieces. It is not only a detailed account of whaling, but also a book of history, philosophy and religion. It is therefore, an encyclopedia of the 19th century American mind and America itself.As I mentioned, Moby-Dick is an encyclopedia. Therefore, it involves several themes: revenge, the relationship between man and nature, love and friendship, religion, abandon and pursuit.I have analyzed the relationship between man and nature in the previous part. And at this part I will focus on the revenge as well as abandon and pursuit.This novel shows us two kinds of revenge.The revenge between human and the white whale.The revenge among humans.We have already known the revenge story between white whale and Ahab.But in the capital 54 The Town-Ho Story, the author also describe a revenge story among humans. Because of a trivial thing the mate and a sailor started to hate each other. The mate used his power to harm the sailor and the sailor refused to cooperate with the mate even when they found the boat was leaking. In the critical moment of white whale hunting, become of their noncooperation, the white whale ran and the mate was killed by the white whale. It seems that by telling this story the author wants to show that revenge is inherent in human nature of evil, and if we do not control it, it would lead us to folio even death.Finally, let’s talk about the pursuit and abandon, which not only serves as the theme of the novel but also reflects the spirits of that age. The middle of the 19th century witnesses the development and expansion of capitalism. In that time human continuously gather wealth by conquering and destroying the nature. In order toobtain the very valuable oil and wax, whaling was developed. In this background, everyone wants to escape form their existing state of life and live a new life. For example, at the beginning of synopsis, you can find these sentences: Ishmael was a schoolmaster who often felt that he must leave his quiet existence and go to sea. Much of his life had been spent as a sailor, and his voyages were a means for ridding himself of the restlessness which frequently seized him.Moby-Dick is one of the most well-known romances in American literature history, but it was not until the 20 century, people realized its value. What baffled its early readers was the book’s wild extravagances of mood and language, its effect of what the modern critic Van Wycy Brooks calls “a shredded Shakespearean play”Melville confided to Hawthorne that it (the novel) had been “boiled in hell fire”, referring to the turbulence of his own spirit from which the book sprang. Moby-Dick was too powerful for readers of its time.。

在航海的过程中, 他逐步认识到了爱和友谊的价值,他学会了接受, 学会了更多的关于奋斗和勇敢的知识,而作者认为正是人类生存的保证。

种种冒险的经历,转变了他对人性和生活的看法,看到了生命的价值。

所以这次航海象征着伊史玛利对知识和生活价值的一种追求, 也是那
个时代美国人对于生活真理的追求,以及对于新梦想的寻求。

Queequeg’s Coffin
Queequeg’s coffin alternately (更迭 地)symbolizes life and death. Queequeg has it built when he is seriously ill, but when he recovers, it becomes a chest to hold his belongings and an emblem (象征,标 志)of his will to live. He perpetuates(使永存 ) the knowledge tattooed(纹身) on his body by carving it onto the coffin’s lid(盖子). The coffin further comes to symbolize life when it replaces the Pequod’s life buoy. When the Pequod sinks, the coffin becomes Ishmael’s buoy(浮标), saving not only his life but the life of the narrative that he will pass on.
