Whether meditating on the bloody battlefields of the Civil War, the mysteries of faith and doubt in the Holy Land, or the strange relationship between the Maldive Shark and the pilot fish that glide before "his Gorgonian head," Melville's verse combines precise physical detail and rich metaphysical speculation in an unorthodox style and with a compressed power uniquely his own. The fruit of decades of textual scholarship, this fourth and final volume of the Library of America Melville edition gathers for the first time in one volume all of Melville's poems: the four books of poetry published in his lifetime, his uncollected poems, and the poems from two projected volumes of poetry and prose left unfinished at his death. Battle-Pieces and Aspects of the War is both a deeply philosophical work of mourning for the Civil War dead and a fascinating record of campaigns and battles and the war's immediate aftermath. With a cast of characters to rival Moby-Dick, the epic poem Clarel, about a young American divinity student's pilgrimage to the Holy Land, plumbs the profound existential and religious questions that haunted Melville throughout his life. In two late privately issued books, the retrospective John Marr and Other Sailors and Timoleon Etc., the aging poet returns to the nautical scenes and reading of his youth. Many of the poems in the two manuscripts left unfinished at Melville's death, Weeds and Wildings and Parthenope, have not been previously available in a reliable trade edition."--Publisher. 000904091 650_0 $$aChristian pilgrims and pilgrimages$$vPoetry. 000904091 650_0 $$aSailing$$vPoetry. 000904091 650_0 $$aAmerican poetry$$y19th century. 000904091 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xHistory$$yCivil War, 1861-1865$$vPoetry. 000904091 655_7 $$aPoetry.$$2lcgft 000904091 7001_ $$aParker, Hershel,$$eeditor. 000904091 7001_ $$aSandberg, Robert A.$$q(Robert Allen),$$econtributor. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tBattle-pieces and aspects of the war. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tClarel. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tJohn Marr and other sailors. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tTimoleon. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tWeeds and wildings. 000904091 70012 $$aMelville, Herman,$$d1819-1891.$$tParthenope. 000904091 7400_ $$aBattle-pieces and aspects of the war. 000904091 7400_ $$aClarel: a poem and pilgrimage in the Holy Land. 000904091 7400_ $$aJohn Marr and other sailors with some sea pieces. 000904091 7400_ $$aTimoleon etc.. 000904091 7400_ $$aWeeds and wildings chiefly: with A rose or two. 000904091 7400_ $$aParthenope. 000904091 7400_ $$aUncollected poetry and prose-and-verse. 000904091 830_0 $$aLibrary of America ;$$v320. 000904091 85200 $$bgen$$hPS2382$$i.P37$$i2019 000904091 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:904091$$pGLOBAL_SET 000904091 980__ $$aBIB 000904091 980__ $$aBOOK
