Publisher's Synopsis

This study explores the intersection of vertical and horizontal elements -- the vertical ascension of Ahab's drama and Ishmael's horizontal integration of feeling, thought, and experience. This study builds upon traditional approaches as well as allowing science, geography, and aesthetic theory to broaden the understanding of Melville's art.
