Author:	Kevin J Hayes
Publisher:	Kent, Ohio : Kent State University Press, ©1999.
Edition/Format:	Book : State or province government publication : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	Melville's Folk Roots brings to the forefront the depth of Melville's immersion with and borrowing from oral traditions, both musical and narrative; tall-tale humor; nautical folklore; superstition; and legend. Though intended as a survey of Melville's use of folklore, this book also is important as a general introduction to his work. Unencumbered by critical jargon and narrated in an engaging manner, this book will appeal to general readers as well as seasoned scholars of Melville.  Read more...
