Seminar paper from the year 1994 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Englische Philologie), course: The Forms of Melville's Fiction, language: English, abstract: 1. IntroductionThe publication of Melville's Moby-Dick or, The Whale in 1851 caused a vast range of attitudes toward the book, approaching the novel in various ways. Among those, central motives of creation and quest played an important role in interpreting the author's masterpieceas a work that sought to reach new fundamental religious insightsby challenging the Calvinist tradition of Melville's time.This paper is an attempt to show how far Melville's Moby-Dick succeeded in attacking the Calvinist principles of a theocratic and evil view of the world, constructing a literary scene of scepticism and bigotry that crosses the normal boundaries in its quest for what is beyond the universal system.
