Full textThrough an analytical and interpretative study of Herman Melvilles Moby-Dick I intend to formulate and clarify the historical turning point of the American novel, specifically what is deemed the most radical effort of an American writer to bring a comprehensive study on society into novelistic form. In order to accomplish that, I reconsider some of the features of Moby-Dick that strongly appealed to the times. First the ideological crisis of the 1840s, when the equalitarian revolutionary ideals of the Independence were finally confronted by the consequences of the U.S. being fully compromised to the Industrial Revolution and the capitalistic worldwide system. This is a central issue in Redburn (1849) and White-Jacket (1850), both novels where some major features of Moby-Dick are anticipated and firstly tested. Second, I scrutinize the concept of frontier -- a national identity issue that can be traced back to the Puritan 17th century errand into the wilderness that is strongly attached in the age of Melville to the ideological making of American imperialism. Besides, it also has had a major role in the crystallization of culturally specific perspectives on property and the establishment of social classes. Finally, I reconsider the notions of technique and labor, directly implied in the whaling industry and in a more general way in the marching of American civilization towards the West, which has had a strong impact on the understanding of the social significance of free labor and its coexistence with slavery. With those things under consideration, and through the surmises of the Critical Theory and the Brazilian tradition of social and literary criticism as well, it is my aim to shed light on some esthetical features of the novel, particularly on the tragic structure (as opposed to the epic) that defines the career of Pequods Captain Ahab and his obsessive chasing of Moby Dick, and the constitution of a self-reflexive narrator, the survivor Ishmael, who recalls the past of the catastrophe in order to attack the social reproduction of its conditions in the present.

GENIN, ISABELLE. "Les trois traductions francaises de moby-dick de herman melville." Paris 3, 1998. http://www.theses.fr/1998PA030059.
Full textThis dissertation is a comparative study of the three french translations of moby-dick by melville: that by jean giono, lucien jacques and joan smith (1941), that by armel guerne (1954), and that by henriette guex-rolle (1970). The study of many examples is carried out from the point of view of both the english-speaking and the french-speaking reader. The aim is to show the general tendency of each text, to point out some processes significantly changing the experience of the reader of the translation and to assess the passages where translating becomes creative writing in its own way. The style of the novel makes the translator's task challenging as he has to find a way out of numerous conflicting priorities. The abundance of the language and its apparent disorder enable melville to transcend its limitations and express what is beyond the power of words. The main four lines of comparison are four aspects of that attempt, but each raises specific problems for the translator. 1) voices: the quakers, the uneducated people, the exotic characters and the sailors. 2) words for what is beyond words: negative affixes and double negative forms which blur the frontier between a word and its contrary. 3) adjectives: reflecting the narrator's voice piling up words and connotations. 4) creating images and music: through metaphors, repetitions of words and sounds, word order and sentence patterns

Full textWhether it deals with paintings and etchings or hieroglyphics, the novel is marked by a multiplicity of representations. Literary representation turns out to be under the rule of the principle of narcissism, which governs all the duplicates and mirroring effects in Melville fiction. The play of the writing allows the representation of the self according to a process which destroys the narcissistic plenitude of the "infans" subject but contributes at the same time to constitute the subject. But as a written mark, the letter is far from establishing a pre-determined relation with the object it refers to, and allows a fundamental indeterminacy. Such a conception contributes to the deconstruction of a traditional and theological vision of the production of the writing. The problem of representation cannot be separated from that of meaning and of the deciphering of sings. Moby-dick shows the process of the interpretation of an image or a text : meaning is not given, but has to be constructed by the interpret. In this sense Melville text can be considered as the representation of a linguistic system, in this case culioli's enunciative theory
