【答案】 Moby-Dick,Herman Melville's sixth book,was published in 1851.It was a work in which,as the novelist Walker Percy has written,Melville first fully felt the happiness of the artist discovering,breaking through into the freedom of his art. Moby-Dick began as yet another young-man-goes-to-sea story,but it grew into an encyclopedic work in which the first-person voice of the narrator,Ishmael,fractures into multiple voices.The highly digressive narrative about the whaleship Pequod incorporates meticulous descriptions of the whaling business (from its wage structure to its inventory of weapons and tools),bawdy sailor songs,lyric celebrations of seafaring life,as well as flights of speculation about human destiny.This wonderfully multifarious book,however,is eventually taken over by the monomaniac Captain Ahab,who turns the Pequod into an instrument for achieving his singular and focused purpose:to hunt and kill the great white whale that,on a previous voyage,had dashed his boat to splinters and ripped him half to death.
