Herman Melville's 'Benito Cereno'
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of Melville's story, focusing on the denial and rationalization abilities of Captain Delano. The story ultimately is the illustration of the unthinking prejudice of race based on a lack of understanding, and the author makes his points against the backdrop of mental instability and lack of mental wholeness. To the charges of Melville's day that the black race was somehow intellectually inferior so that the white race could continue their rationalization for enslaving a segment of their human brothers, Melville takes the less-than-sane notion and uses the backdrop of lack of awareness to magnify the ultimate futility and irrationality in adhering to such views. No additional sources cited.

Herman Melville's 'Billy Budd'
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. What message was Herman Melville attempting to get across within his story of 'Billy Budd'? Melville, himself was considerably preoccupied with the problems of God and God's design of the world as they related to good and evil, right and wrong. To Melville, human nature represented a dichotomy of description in that it was the author's interpretation that humanity was at the crux of many world problems. In one's assessment of Melville's intention, it is important to note that the nautical theme is extremely crucial to the author's overall objective with regard to defining the limitations of human nature. The writer discusses the message of 'Billy Budd.' No additional sources cited.
