In recent years, Melville scholars have enriched our understanding of this narrative instability by applying Mikhail Bakhtin’s theoretical concepts, particularly his dialogical views of language, consciousness, and the novel. This essay argues along similar lines, and examines salient instances of tonal and rhetorical disjuncture in Ishmael’s narrative in light of their dialogical implications. However, the author also posits that some of Ishmael’s tonal anomalies strongly echo the discrepant and ambivalent narrative tone that can be found in Homer’s Iliad. The similarities in tonal discord are made all the more conspicuous by Ishmael’s prominent adoption of literary devices that are closely associated with the epic, such as hypallage and the Homeric simile. One potent effect of this dual-voiced echoing of Homeric narration is to illustrate the seductive resilience of heroic-epic attitudes towards martial glory and honor, which endure in the cultural consciousness, albeit in a state of dialogic tension with voices that value principles of peace, brotherhood, and compassion.","PeriodicalId":36222,"journal":{"name":"Leviathan (Germany)","volume":"3 1","pages":"39 - 53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73621734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I note first that Ahab and others invoke children as alternatives to the destructive world of the Pequod. In this metaphorical sense, children anchor the ship in the domestic world it leaves behind. I note second that the actual children—like Pip, the whaling ship’s cabin boy, and Ishmael’s memory of his own childhood—provide an opportunity for Melville to test the possibilities of figuration. In literary history, the child was closely aligned with the concept of figuration. Literary historians took the “figure” to mean both the original form of something and its representation. Through their plasticity and their representation of adult forms and values, children became vehicles for figuration. However, in Moby-Dick, the treatment of young Ishmael and Pip strains the possibility for the child to be a representation of the values of a community. This is not Ahab’s “sweet childhood of air and sky.” Rather, I argue that through Pip’s loss of a sense of self, Melville brings to the fore the history of violence that contradicts Ahab’s domestic metaphor, setting limits on the possibility of the figure to represent reality.","PeriodicalId":36222,"journal":{"name":"Leviathan (Germany)","volume":"127 1","pages":"22 - 38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73604920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These scenes, in which Ahab symbolically binds first the three mates and then the three harpooneers to his quest to hunt the white whale, form two of the book's most striking vignettes, vignettes that strongly resemble Oath of the Horatii, a painting Melville would have seen on his 1849 visit to the Louvre. While scholarship has done much to explore Melville's engagement with romanticism in visual art, Melville's use of Oath of the Horatii indicates his engagement with an alternate aesthetic mode, which I discuss as the \"aesthetic of the distinct.\" The aesthetic of the distinct emphasizes a clear, precise, and vivid representation of the sensory world and bespeaks a philosophically realist trust in objective, earth-bound factuality and our ability to reliably glean information from this material reality. Thus, Melville's interest in the aesthetic of the distinct, signaled by his use of Oath of the Horatii as a source in \"The Quarter-Deck,\" evidences the appeal that realist philosophy held for him and provides an aesthetic angle to recent arguments for his realist proclivities.","PeriodicalId":36222,"journal":{"name":"Leviathan (Germany)","volume":"87 1","pages":"23 - 3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76824708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Pierre, linguistic forces, once unleashed, become other—proceeding from obscure, internal impulses with no clear origin but creating in return momentous external constraints that utterers do not control and that make the narration veer. Speech acts create webs of forces, palpable forms of the impalpable, which lead Isabel and Pierre to realize that the \"solid land of veritable reality\" is also constituted by the gossamer threads of language. Pierre's narrator is careful to dramatize the mechanisms of magical thinking that underlie the characters' practice of magical speech. Examining them through the lens of pragmatic linguistics and anthropology illuminates what happens to language, and through language, in Pierre: magic. Against the teleology of intentions or clear causes, Pierre stages a dramaturgy of multidirectional, random effects that eventually constitute a fate, retrospectively. This foregrounds the role of chance in what Melville calls the \"infinite entanglements of all social things\" and \"complex web of life,\" and offers striking affinities with Darwin's later images of webs and entanglements in The Origin of Species.","PeriodicalId":36222,"journal":{"name":"Leviathan (Germany)","volume":"107 1","pages":"34 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81259685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rather than tracing the literary filiations of the novel, I explore the ghostliness—and often anamorphic character—of literary allusions as well as the multiple trajectories involved in this transformative process. Intertextuality manifests itself as a spectral force and heterogeneous realm of experience that fuels the reader's interpretive activity. This space of critical uncertainty opens up the possibility for various allusions to be entangled and to haunt each other, one potential reference morphing into another one, should one look at the text from a slightly different angle. Intertextuality in The Confidence-Man also disrupts the linearity of reading as it invites readers to veer back to earlier chapters of the novel or to reassess canonical texts in light of their Melvillean avatars. Ultimately, it seems that veering is a critical vantage point that avoids the binary opposition between symptomatic reading and surface reading, the suspicion that infuses the whole narrative attesting to its agency and unpredictability.","PeriodicalId":36222,"journal":{"name":"Leviathan (Germany)","volume":"280 1","pages":"53 - 69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74982201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
