What does Melville studies look like after a phase of intense
critical activity? This book addresses that question by analyzing
Melville as a writer who was keenly interested in the pleasures,
limits, and possibilities of various reading practices. It collects
and assesses all of the major new trends in Melville studies.
Essays, written by some of the leading scholars in the field, test
out emerging critical methods. They explore Melville's centrality
to American literary studies and consider the full range of
Melville's career, connecting his poetry to his prose. This
collection re-imagines Melville as a theorist as well as a writer,
approaching his works as philosophical forms in their own right. It
shows how scholars are changing Melville studies not only by
re-orienting the texts upon which those studies are based, but also
by incorporating new approaches that unsettle prior assumptions and
interpretive claims.
