2. Derwent: Revisiting Melville's Clarel.

Abstract

Derwent may have more speaking lines and appearances than any other character in Herman Melville's Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land (1876); in dramatic terms, he emerges as a major philosophical voice embracing and synthesizing the optimistic Romanticism of William Wordsworth and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Derwent brings to Clarel a persistent hope that lasts throughout Melville's conception of the otherwise largely despairing poem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
