Description

Melville's Monumental Imagination offers a deep look into the relationship between 19th century American monument traditions and the work of Herman Melville (1819-1891). This scholarly study addresses a specific gap in Melville research by providing the first monograph dedicated to how the author incorporates monuments into his fictional world. By charting the territory of Melville's novels, this book tracks the development of the monumental image within this specific literary form. Readers can follow a clear trajectory of how these images appear and evolve throughout his writing. This book serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in American literature and the historical context of the 19th century.
