ENGL 6330/7330: Major American Writers—Herman Melville's Moby-Dick
About This Course
The focus of this course is Moby-Dick, the greatest novel of Herman Melville (1819-1891), one of the major authors of The American Renaissance. Although we will visit other major works along the way (each class member will make a major presentation on one of them), at all times the White Whale will be our sole, monomaniacal (in a scholarly sense of course) objective.
