Descrizione libro Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Perhaps Melville's most difficult and wildly textured work, 'Pierre; or, The Ambiguities', to this day evades easy categorization or critical interpretation. Now seen as an ambitious foray into proto-modernist composition, the text was initially met with utter consternation and was a commercial failure. Published a year after 'Moby Dick', this novel tracks the nineteen year old Pierre Glendinning through his life in New York City as a fledgling novelist. Mr. Melville himself can be seen in the melodramatic life of Pierre. Wrestling with the literary trends of transcendentalism that pervaded his day, the novel, on some level, also parodies the gothic tradition of grand morality. But it is this morality that is brought into focus, scrutinizing it only as Melville can. Spoken of as 'word piled upon word, and syllable heaped upon syllable, until the tongue grows as bewildered as the mind, and both refuse to perform their offices from sheer inability to grasp the magnitude of the absurdities.', the torrential dismay that this novel was met with now sounds like the unknown beginnings of a revolution. Experimental and without reservations, 'Pierre' will remain a glowing oddity of American literature. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper. Codice articolo 9781420978902
