    Melville, Herman (1819-1891) page: The most important American novelist of the nineteenth century, Herman Melville reflects his homosexuality throughout his texts. Melville was born in New York City to a prosperous and distinguished family. In 1830, his father's bankruptcy and subsequent madness brought a radical alteration in the young man's life. The sense of a patrician past, of a dark secret, and of a radical loss of social status remained with him forever. Although Maria Melville's family aided their now poor relations, further disasters followed quickly. Sponsor Message.

He is best known for his novel Moby-Dick and the posthumous novella Billy Budd . His first three books gained much attention, the first becoming a bestseller, but after a fast-blooming literary success in the late 1840s, his popularity declined precipitously in the mid-1850s and never recovered during his lifetime. When he died in 1891, he was almost completely forgotten. It was not until the "Melville Revival" in the early 20th century that his work won recognition, especially Moby-Dick which was hailed as one of the literary masterpieces of both American and world literature.

    Melville, Herman Biography
    Herman Melville (1819-1891) American author, best-known for his novels of the sea and his masterpiece MOBY-DICK (1851), a whaling adventure dedicated to Nathaniel Hawthorne. "I have written a wicked book and feel as spotless as the lamb," Melville wrote to Hawthorne. The work was only recognized as a masterpiece 30 years after Melville's death. The fictionalized travel narrative of TYPEE (1846) was Melville's most popular book during his lifetime. "All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the less of things; all truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil, to crazy Ahab, were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Moby Dick. He piled upon the whale's white hump the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by his whole race from Adam down; and then, as if chest had been a mortar, he burst his hot heart's shell upon it." (from Moby-Dick Herman Melville was born in New York City into an established merchant family. He was the third child of eight. His father, Allan Melvill, an importer of French dry goods, became bankrupt and insane, dying when Melville was 12. His mother, Maria Gansevoort Melvill, was left alone to raise eight children. Occasionally she received help from her wealthy relatives. A bout of scarlet fever in 1826 left Melville with permanently weakened eyesight. He attended Albany (N.Y.) Classical School in 1835. He left the school and was largely autodidact, devouring Shakespeare as well as historical, anthropological, and technical works. From the age of 12, he worked as a clerk, teacher, and farmhand. In search of adventures, he shipped out in 1839 as a cabin boy on the whaler

    Herman Melville (1819-1891) , American author of such famed literary works as Typee (1846) and its sequel Omoo (1847) also wrote Moby Dick, or; The Whale Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough. He tasks me; he heaps me; I see in him outrageous strength, with an inscrutable malice sinewing it. That inscrutable thing is chiefly what I hate; and be the white whale agent, or be the white whale principal, I will wreak that hate upon him. Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I'd strike the sun if it insulted me. For could the sun do that, then could I do the other; since there is ever a sort of fair play herein, jealousy presiding over all creations. But not my master, man, is even that fair play. Who's over me? Truth hath no confines.Ch. 36 Herman Melville was born into an eminent family claiming war heroes and wealthy merchants on 1 August 1819 in New York City, New York State, son of Maria Gansevoort (1791-1872) and Allan Melville (1782-1832). As a successful import merchant, Allan afforded all the necessary comforts and more to his large family of eight sons and daughters. He loved to tell his children sea-faring tales of terror and adventure, and of places far away. After his death at the age of forty, his wife and children moved to the village of Lansingburg, on the banks of the Hudson River.

    From New World Encyclopedia
    Jump to: navigation search Previous (Heritage Foundation) Next (Hermann Boerhaave) Herman Melville Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 – September 28, 1891) was an American novelist and essayist who will ever be known for his masterpiece, Moby-Dick With contemporaries Nathaniel Hawthorne Walt Whitman , and the New England Transcendentalists, Melville is numbered among the most important and widely read American writers of the nineteenth century. In search of adventure, the young Melville left his native Massachusetts and joined a whaling expedition to the South Pacific where he fell under the spell of the exotic and promiscuous Polynesian culture. Melville's early novels presented a romanticized picture of the South Pacific, contrasted with what he viewed as the repressive, guilt-ridden ethos of Victorian New England . These travel narratives won an enthusiastic readership. As Melville matured he began to use the fictional form to probe metaphysical and psychological questions, culminating in his masterpiece, Moby-Dick This long, thematically innovative novel had no precedent and can fairly be said to stand alone in its trenchant use of symbols and archetypes. The novel follows the monomaniacal quest of the sea captain Ahab for the white whale Moby-Dick, and is a figurative exploration of the author's tortured quest to come to terms with God. According to his friend Nathaniel Hawthorne, Melville "can neither believe nor be comfortable in his unbelief."

    Herman Melville
    From LoveToKnow 1911
    HERMAN MELVILLE (1819-1891), American author, was born in New York City on the 1st of August 1819. He shipped as a cabin -boy at the age of eighteen, thus being enabled to make his first visit to England , and at twenty-two sailed for a long whaling cruise in the Pacific. After a year and a half he deserted his ship at the Marquesas Islands, on account of the cruelty of the captain; was captured by cannibals on the island of Nukahiva, and detained, without hardship, four months; was rescued by the crew of an Australian vessel, which he joined, and two years later reached New York . Thereafter, with the exception of a passenger voyage around the world in 1860, Melville remained in the United States , devoting himself to literature - though for a considerable period (1866-1885) he held a post in the New York custom-house - and being perhaps Hawthorne's most intimate friend among the literary men of America . His writings are numerous, and of varying merit; his verse, patriotic and other, is forgotten; and his works of fiction and of travel are of irregular execution. Nevertheless, few authors have been enabled so freely to introduce romantic personal experiences into their books: in his first work, Typee: A Peep at Polynesian Life, or Four Months' Residence in a Valley of the Marquesas

    Genius Ignored , Chapter 6: Melville [Summary: In his 20's Melville was a popular writer of sea stories. The more ambitious works (e.g. Moby Dick) which followed were not successful. He was unable to make a living from writing.] Moby-Dick , a novel?! Is y'r Homer a novelist? Is y'r Book o' Job a novel? Y'r novel's a piddlin', dainty form.

    [from a 19th-century hymn] In his twenties Melville wrote a number of very popular sea stories. These were followed by more serious, ambitious works (such as Moby-Dick ) which were much less successful with the public and failed to find an audience even in more educated, literary circles. At the age of 37 he abandoned the idea of making his living from writing. Increasingly forgotten, his only literary output over the next thirty years was poems which he and his relatives paid to have published. Around his seventieth year, interest in his work began to revive. A final flowering of his genius, Billy Budd, Foretopman
