Visualizing the Scene

Try It

Highlight words that help you visualize the setting.

There was no sun nor hint of sun, though there was not a

cloud in the sky. It was a clear day, and yet there seemed

an intangible pall over the face of things, a subtle gloom

that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence

of sun. This fact did not worry the man.

Jack London

Question

3 DISCUSS the following questions.

The border between the villain and the victim is made

deliberately ambiguous by Melville. On whose side do you think

he is, Ahab's or Moby Dick's? Who is the victim and who the

villain?

What do you think of Ahab's obsession to chase Moby Dick?

Can you justify it? Do you understand his reasons?

5. The Victorian Age

Answer

Melville deliberately leaves the border between Ahab and Moby Dick ambiguous, making it difficult to determine who is the villain and who is the victim. Ahab's obsession to chase Moby Dick can be justified by his desire for revenge and his need to prove his own power and strength. His reasons are understandable, but his actions are extreme. The themes of revenge and obsession are common in literature of the Victorian Age.
