22. Concerning Herman Melville
    Comments about melville from his family and friends.  
    http://www.melville.org/others.htm
    
    Extractions: A page from The Life and Works of Herman Melville A collection of the various eulogies, observations, and slanders that have been heaped upon Melville by family members and well-known personalities since 1829. Comments are arranged in alphabetical order by authors' last names; multiple comments taken from a single source have been further arranged in chronological order. Years ago I looked into Typee and Omoo , but as I didn't find there what I am looking for when I open a book I did go no further. Lately I had in my hand Moby Dick . It struck me as a rather strained rhapsody with whaling for a subject and not a single sincere line in the 3 vols of it. Letter to Humphrey Milford, January 15 1907 I don't think Melville's book [ The Piazza Tales Putnam stories will bring it up. Letter to J.H. Dix, January 2 1856 ...Herman Melville passed the evening with me fresh from his mountain charged to the muzzle with his sailor metaphysics and jargon of things unknowable. But a good stirring evening ploughing deep and bringing to the surface some rich fruit of thought and experience Melville instanced Burton as atheistical in the exquisite irony of his passages on some sacred matters; cited a good story from the Decameron the Enchantment of the husband in the tree; a story from Judge Edmonds of a prayer meeting of female convicts at Sing Sing which the Judge was invited to witness and agreed to, provided that he was introduced where he could not be seen. It was an orgie of indecency and blasphemy. Said of Bayard Taylor that as some augur predicted the misfortunes of Charles I from the infelicity of his countenance so Taylor's prosperity "borne up by the Gods" was written in his face.

26. Melville And Nathaniel Hawthorne
    The story of the friendship between the two authors, and the surviving letters from melville to Hawthorne.  
    http://www.melville.org/hawthrne.htm
    
    Extractions: A page from The Life and Works of Herman Melville In the summer of 1850 Melville purchased an eighteenth-century farmhouse in the community of Pittsfield in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. Berkshire was then home to a number of prominent literary figures such as Fanny Kemble, Oliver Wendell Holmes, James Russell Lowell, and, in Lenox, less than six miles from Melville, Nathaniel Hawthorne. The two authors met for the first time in Stockbridge on August 5, 1850, on a picnic excursion hosted by David Dudley Field. Hawthorne was forty-six and was familiar with at least a portion of Melville's work, having favorably reviewed Typee in the Salem Advertiser (March 25, 1846); Melville was thirty-one and had just written or was about to write an exceedingly warm and enthusiastic piece on Hawthorne's Mosses From an Old Manse , a copy of which had been given to him by an aunt a few weeks before. Early in the course of the excursion, a sudden thunderstorm forced the party to take shelter, giving Melville and Hawthorne an opportunity to become better acquainted. The two men took to each other at once, and as their conversation continued were delighted to discover a growing bond of mutual sympathy and comprehension. Two days later Hawthorne wrote to a friend "I liked Melville so much that I have asked him to spend a few days with me." This would be the first of a series of visits, supplemented by written correspondence, that would continue until the gradual cooling off of the friendship late in 1852.

    encyclopediaEncyclopedia—melville, herman Early Life and Works. Borninto an impoverished family of distinguished Dutch and English  
    http://www.infoplease.com/ce6/people/A0859563.html
    
    Extractions: Encyclopedia Melville, Herman Born into an impoverished family of distinguished Dutch and English colonial descent, Melville was 12 when his father died. He left school at 15, worked at a variety of jobs, and in 1839 signed on as a cabin boy on a ship bound for Liverpool, an experience reflected in his romance Redburn. The immediate results of his experiences were Typee: A Peep at Polynesian Life Omoo: A Narrative of Adventures in the South Seas (1847), as well as Redburn (1849), all fresh, exuberant, and immensely popular romances. In 1847, Melville married Elizabeth Shaw, the daughter of Lemuel Shaw, Chief Justice of Massachusetts. The popularity of his books brought him prosperity, business trips to Europe, and admission to literary circles in New York City. In 1850 he bought a farm near Pittsfield, Mass., and became friends with his neighbor Nathaniel Hawthorne . The allegorical implications evident in his romances Mardi: and a Voyage Thither (1849) and White-Jacket; or, The World in a Man-of-War

    Extractions: Enkomputiligis Don HARLOW Billy katenita de Herman MELVILLE elangligis Bruno GAHLER aperis en Norda Prismo , 57/3, p. 138 La lasta nokto de Billy Budd Tio estas la titolo de impresa rakonto el la marista vivo dum la pasinta jarcento. Øin verkis Herman Melville, kiu naskiøis en 1819 en Novjorko kaj tie mortis en 1881. Li fariøis maristo kaj vivis longe inter la indiøenoj de sudmara insulo. La de li verkitaj fantaziaj-realistaj rakontoj trovis fervorajn legantojn. La plej fama verko estas la konata, ankaý filmigita "Moby Dick aý la baleno". Oni taksas øin kiel la plej gravan maran eposon. Dua verko, finita mallonge antaý lia morto estas "Billy Budd". Impresita per aýdita æapitro en nokta radiosendo, mi klopodis havigi al mi la libron. Dum senlaboreco mi tradukis la rakonton en Esperanton. Ne nur min ravis la temo, sed ankaý la verkisto E. M. Forster prilaboris øin al tekstlibro, kiun poste uzis Benjamin Britten por samnoma opero. Dum la traduko okazis kelkaj aferoj, kiujn mi pro la stranga koincido volas mencii. En tiu tempo mi havis laborkamaradon, kiu ne nur similis al la heroo Billy Budd laý ekstero kaj karaktero, sed eæ lia nomo estis simila: Alfred Buddrus. Al li mi dediæis la tradukon.

    http://odur.let.rug.nl/~usa/LIT/melville.htm
    
    Extractions: FRtR Outlines American Literature Democratic Origins and Revolutionary Writers, 1776-1820: Writers of fiction: Herman Melville (1819-1891) Index Herman Melville, like Nathaniel Hawthorne , was a descendant of an old, wealthy family that fell abruptly into poverty upon the death of the father. Despite his patrician upbringing, proud family traditions, and hard work, Melville found himself in poverty with no college education. At 19 he went to sea. His interest in sailors' lives grew naturally out of his own experiences, and most of his early novels grew out of his voyages. In these we see the young Melville's wide, democratic experience and hatred of tyranny and injustice. His first book, Typee , was based on his time spent among the supposedly cannibalistic but hospitable tribe of the Taipis in the Marquesas Islands of the South Pacific. The book praises the islanders and their natural, harmonious life, and criticizes the Christian missionaries, who Melville found less genuinely civilized than the people they came to convert. Moby-Dick; or, The Whale
