A American, Fiction, Novels book. Our souls are like those orphans whose unwedded mothers die in bearing them:...

تحتل رواية "موبي ديك" للاميركي هيرمان ملفيل مكانة مرموقة بين كلاسيكيات الادب العالمي، فهي اضافة الى كونها الملحمة الكبرى المكتوبة عن صراع تراجيدي بين حوت وانسان تتخذ من هذا الصراع الضاري وسيلة لتأمل الوضع البشري وعلاقته بالوجود كما تحوله الى كيان رمزي معقد عن كيفية العيش وعن المشروع الاميركي الذي وجد في عمل ملفيل شكلا من اشكال التعبير عن نفسه في منتصف القرن التاسع عشر أي حين كانت اميركا تكتشف ذاتها كقوة كونية وامبراطورية امبريالية بالقوة والامكان. فكانت رواية موبي ديك وروايات ملفيل الاخرى بمثابة نبوءة لما ستصير اليه هذه القوة الكامنة.ومر على صدور "موبي ديك" للمرة الاولى زهاء المئة وخمسين عاما لاقت الرواية خلالها من الاهمال ما جعل نفس كاتبها تمتلئ باليأس والاحساس بالعجز ليصرف بقية حياته موظفا في سلك الجمارك الاميركية ويموت مهملا مجهولا في العقد الاخير من القرن التاسع عشر . ولم يلتفت الى الرواية وينظر اليها بصفتها احد الكتب العظيمة سوى عام 1907 أي بعد وفاة صاحبها بستة عشر عاما ، عندما تم ادراجها ضمن سلسلة "ايفري مان لايبراري" الشهيرة التي تنشر الكلاسيكيات الكبرى ولم يهتم النقد بالرواية الا في العشرينات من القرن الماضي حين بدأ الباحثون والنقاد واساتذة الجامعات يكتبون عن هذا العمل الروائي المدهش الذي طور شكل الكتابة الروائية...

More About موبي ديك

Consider the subtleness of the sea; how its most dreaded creatures glide under water, unapparent for the most part, and treacherously hidden beneath the loveliest tints of azure. Consider also the devilish brilliance and beauty of many of its most remorseless tribes, as the dainty embellished shape of many species of sharks. Consider, once more, the universal cannibalism of the sea; all whose creatures prey upon each other, carrying on eternal war since the world began. Consider all this; and then turn to the green, gentle, and most docile earth; consider... Squeeze! Squeeze! Squeeze! all the morning long; I squeezed that sperm till I myself almost melted into it; I squeezed that sperm till a strange sort of insanity came over me, and I found myself unwittingly squeezing my co-labourers' hands in it, mistaking their hands for the gentle globules. Such an abounding, affectionate, friendly, loving feeling did this avocation beget; that at last I was continually squeezing their hands, and looking up into their eyes sentimentally, as much as to say,Oh! my dear fellow beings, why should we longer cherish any... Our souls are like those orphans whose unwedded mothers die in bearing them: the secret of our paternity lies in their grave, and we must there to learn it. Herman Melville, Moby Dick //

People I despise So... I just finished it a couple of days ago and pretty much everything else pales in comparison. About three hundred pages in, it was already in my top ten favorite novels of all time, and it didn't disappoint (much)as I continued reading. I actually deliberately drew out getting to the ending so I could savor the last few hundred... UPDATED!
