En savoir plus sur le livre
"Call me Ishmael" is one of literature's most famous opening lines. Originally published in 1851 with little acclaim, this work is now considered Herman Melville's masterpiece and often regarded as the Great American Novel. The narrative follows Captain Ahab's obsessive pursuit of the great white whale, paralleling the biblical Job's quest for justice and Oedipus's search for truth. Ahab embodies the duality of virtuous and murderous impulses, representing the complexities of the human spirit. Melville's rich prose and the story's expansive scope evoke Shakespearean grandeur and symbolic depth. This work sets the standard for literary achievement in American literature. This edition serves as a companion to the Hallmark Entertainment television adaptation aired on USA Network. The Modern Library has significantly influenced American cultural life for nearly a century, originating in 1917 and later becoming part of Random House. It has offered affordable hard-bound editions of essential literary works. In celebration of its seventy-fifth anniversary, the series was redesigned, reviving its classic emblem and enhancing its presentation. The Modern Library remains dedicated to providing readers with the finest literature at accessible prices.
