Abstract:

Des nombreux tableaux et gravures évoqués dans le texte jusqu'aux tatouages et autres hiéroglyphes, Moby Dick est un roman marque par la multiplicité des représentations. Il semble que la représentation littéraire soit régie par la loi du narcissisme, qui règle tous les doubles et les jeux de miroir présents dans la fiction melvilienne. L'écriture permet en effet au moi de se représenter selon un processus qui, détruisant la plénitude narcissique de l'infans, contribue en même temps à la constitution du sujet. Mais la lettre en tant que trace écrite est loin d'établir une correspondance prééta

En esta tesis se estudia el tratamiento de la identidad en las novelas de Molly Keane (1904-1996) y Kate O'Brien (1897-1974), cuyas obras se publicaron con posterioridad a la proclamación del Irish Free State en 1922. Mediante un triple enfoque que analiza la interrelación de los aspectos de nacionalidad, clase y construcción genérica, se defiende que ambas autoras coinciden en la presentación de una identidad conflictiva y ambigua que debe conciliar la pertenencia a una clase privilegiada, ya sea la angloirlandesa protestante o la católica de clase media, con un sentimiento de subalternidad c

Abstract:

Much of the current critical literature on Moby-Dick lacks a unifying focus. This essay attempts to provide a thread of continuity for Moby-Dick by proving that paradox and Herman Melville’s anticipation of the early existential movement hold the key to a full reading of this text. By viewing the text itself, Melville’s personal correspondence, and the writings of Emerson, Hegel, Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche, the paradoxical tension by which this text must be read comes into clearer focus.<br>Thesis (M.A.)--Wichita State University, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.<br>"May 2006."<br>Includ

Abstract:

Moby Dick! The Musical is a comedic parody based on Herman Melville's 1955 classic novel Moby Dick about a madman who seeks revenge on the great white whale that crippled his body and consumed his spirit. The thesis role I have chosen is "Starbuck", the ship's first mate. If this were a dramatic telling of the classic tale, my role would be considered an absurdity for the sure-known fact that Starbuck is a male character. However, since Moby Dick! The Musical is a spoof that features a play within a play, many, if not most, of the roles are being played by women (teenage school-girls to be exa

Abstract:

In conceptualizing Moby-Dick; or, the whale, Herman Melville was both drawn and opposed to the ideas of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Through an analysis of the main characters in MobyDick and Emerson’s writing, it becomes evident that Transcendentalism is embodied in the characterization of the novel’s main characters. I argue that the eventual fates of characters in the novel reveal Melville’s criticism of Emerson’s ideas. Moreover, the depiction of ocean and land as a symbol of the soul in Moby-Dick mirrors Emerson’s idealized relationship between man and nature. However, the ambiguous and horrific

Gottfried August Bürger (1747-1794) was one of the most important poets of the Sturm und Drang.

I analyse here his so-called "Molly-Lieder", that is poems that he dedicated to her sister-in-law, which he loved madly. For the first time, I determine the exact number of the "Molly-Lieder".

Demonstra-se que as indagações de fundo ontológico presentes na obra de Melville encontram resposta parcial na noção de impossibilidade metafísica do pensador alemão. Para tal demonstração, recorre-se, em primeiro lugar, a uma sistematização do pensamento de Nietzsche e, em segundo, a uma abordagem interpretativa e compreensiva do texto de

This thesis considers Herman Melville's Moby-Dick as a textual strategy of possible, alternative models of reading, as well as a text in itself. I approach the text as a drama of interpretations and argue that the individual consciousnesses of different interpreters represent different interpretive strategies, and that these differences suggest distinct structures of community. This approach becomes more focussed in the discussion of Ahab and Ishmael as representatives of two contrasting interpretive possibilities, of "reading" the text as a "pasteboard mask" which conceals a stable identity a

This thesis examines the life and work of the Australian artist Anne Dangar at Moly-Sabata, an artisanal community founded in rural France in 1927 by the Cubist painter Albert Gleizes. Strongly influenced by Gleizes’ art and cultural theory, Moly-Sabata incorporated the antindividualistic idealism of early modernism yet was vehemently anti-modernist in its critiques of 20th century urbanisation and industrialism. It saw itself as an experimental model for a future post-industrial society based on collective, organic principles. Like other manifestations of the period’s retour a la terre, it

This paper investigates Herman Melville’s quest for spiritual stability and certainty in his novel Moby-Dick. The analysis establishes a philosophical tradition of doubt towards the Bible, outlining the philosophies of Thomas Hobbes, Benedict de Spinoza, David Hume, Thomas Paine and John Henry Newman. This historical survey of spiritual uncertainty establishes the issue of uncertainty that Melville writes about in the nineteenth century. Having assessed the issue of doubt, I then analyze Melville’s use of metaphorical charts, which his characters use to resolve this issue. Finally, I present M

In this thesis, I argue that Herman Melville's Moby Dick depicts the ocean and whales in a way that develops aesthetic theory into a proto-environmentalist message. Melville draws on theories of the mathematical and dynamic sublime as outlined by Edmund Burke and Immanuel Kant, while also employing Goethe's Theory of Colours in his depictions of the ocean setting. Goethe posits that opposing phenomena require one another to signify and to function, and Melville dramatises this idea throughout a complex and often self-contradictory novel.

This thesis examines the connections between three frequently associated nineteenth-century texts, Carlyle's Sartor Resartus, Melville's Moby Dick, and Thoreau's Walden.

After this conceptual background is outlined, the various modes of dialogic irony presented in the three works are discussed. That of Walden arises out of a close analogy between self and text: both are a series

O processo de adaptação de Moby-Dick ao leitor juvenil conduz a mutações genéricas e a uma deslocação da obra no cânone e na tradição. Destas mutações e desta deslocação resulta um novo género ou sub-género narrativo que se caracteriza pelas suas afinidades com as formas arcaizantes da narrativa clássica, nomeadamente a epopeia. Associada a esta deriva encontra-se uma ética específica que reflecte os deveres e os direitos tradicionalmente atribuídos aos jovens do sexo masculino.

Abstract:

Il existe dans Moby-Dick; or, The Whale de Herman Melville, ecrit en 1851, neuf rencontres entre baleiniers en mer. Ces rencontres designees sous le nom de "gams" ne correspondent nullement a la definition donnee par melville. Par une etude textuelle approfondie, je montre que ces "gams" depassent le cadre de la narration pour s'inscrire dans une trame symbolique complexe; qu'ils representent, en quelque sorte, une miniaturisation du roman dans son ensemble; et que leur message profond est en relation etroite avec le probleme de l'ecriture et du langage, problemes qui font l'objet de mon intro
