  • "Moby Dick is a work of profound symbolism. Includes references to subjects as diverse as biology, religion, idealism, obsession, pragmatism, revenge, racism, and political hierarchy. The crew of the Pequod come from sources as varied as Chile, France, Iceland, the Netherlands, Italy, Malta, China, Denmark, Portugal, India, England, Tahiti, Spain and Ireland, suggesting that the Pequod is a representation of humanity. The biblical allusions of the names of the characters or the meaning of the white whale have intrigued readers and critics for over a century."

  • "Overview: One of the most widely-read and respected books in all American literature, Moby Dick is the saga of Captain Ahab and his unrelenting pursuit of Moby Dick, the great white whale who maimed him during their last encounter. A novel blending high-seas romantic adventure, symbolic allegory, and the conflicting ideals of heroic determination and undying hatred, Moby Dick is also revered for its historical accounts of the whaling industry of the 1800's."@en
