Billy Budd, Sailor is a novella by American writer Herman Melville left unfinished at Melville's death in 1891. Acclaimed by critics as a masterpiece when a hastily transcribed version was finally published in 1924, it quickly took its place as a classic second only to Moby-Dick among Melville's works. Budd is a ""handsome sailor"" who strikes and inadvertently kills his false accuser, Master-at-arms John Claggart. The ship's Captain, Edward Vere, recognizes the innocence of Budd's intent but the law of mutiny requires him to sentence Billy to be hanged. Melville began work on it in November 1886, revising and expanding from time to time, but left the manuscript in disarray. Melville's widow Elizabeth began to edit the manuscript for publication, but was not able to decide her husband's intentions at key points, even his intended title. Raymond M. Weaver, Melville's first biographer, was given the manuscript and published the 1924 version, which was marred by misinterpretation of Elizabeth's queries, misreadings of Melville's difficult handwriting, and even inclusion of a preface Melville had cut. Melville scholars Harrison Hayford and Merton M. Sealts Jr. published what is considered the best transcription and critical reading text in 1962. In 2017, Northwestern University Press published a ""new reading text"" based on a ""corrected version"" of Hayford and Sealts' genetic text prepared by G. Thomas Tanselle.

A beautifully designed, classic edition of Melville's original tale...discovered unfinished in the author's desk shortly after his death. Billy Budd, a cheerful, good looking sailor with a natural charisma and innocence that makes him popular with the crew, is aboard a British ship during the Napoleonic wars. His only physical defect is a stutter which grows worse when under intense stress. Budd arouses the antagonism of the ship's bitter master-at-arms, John Claggart, who falsely accuses Billy of conspiring to mutiny. Billy, dumfounded by the accusation, becomes unable to defend himself because of his stuttering and in frustration strikes the lying Claggart with a blow so powerful that it kills the man instantly. In the ensuing trial Melville explores good and evil, justice and mercy, right and wrong, and natural law verses man's law as the ship's Captain recognizes the innocence of Budd's intent, but the law of mutiny requires him to sentence Billy to be hanged. Billy Budd, Sailor is the last novel written by American writer Herman Melville. Beginning the original work in 1888, it was left unfinished at the time of his death in 1891, remaining unpublished until 1924. Melville scholars engaged in study and scrupulous research of the book for many years that resulted in this final text. This classic edition offers all lovers of literature the best and most authentic version of the American storyteller's final masterpiece, which has been acclaimed as second only to Moby Dick among Melville's Work.

Söderhavet som litterärt landskap av Redaktör Ulf Johansson Dahre:Tänk att vara född som en så kallad vilde på en av Söderhavsöarna, att kunna njuta av den rena och obefläckade mänskliga existensen, J. W. GOETHE, 1828Söderhavet, Romantiskt, mytiskt, äventyrligt. Att tala och skriva om Söderhavet framkallar inte sällan längtansfulla suckar om blått hav, vajande palmer och ett lättjefullt liv. Det är inget fenomen som har med den moderna turistindustrin att göra. Föreställningen om Söderhavet som ett jordiskt paradis har en lång historia. I mitten av 1800-talet gav denna dröm upphov till det som idag är en egen litterär genre som kan kallas för Söderhavslitteratur. Det är en litteratur som kännetecknas av kraftfull romantik och exoticism, men emellanåt också av nykter realism. Den romantiska ådran har utan tvekan blivit en del av det västerländska kulturarvet även om de flesta västerlänningar inte varit i Söderhavet. För vem har inte längtat efter den där härliga vykortstranden eller läst fantastiska historier om livet och människorna på det som ibland kallats de lata latituderna? Samtidigt har många fascinerats eller förfärats över skildringarna över det primitiva livet eller över kannibalerna hunger.

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee…’ Few literary masterpieces cast quite as awesome a shadow as Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. Captain Ahab’s quest for the white whale is a timeless epic – a thrilling tale of vengeance and obsession, and a searing parable about humanity lost in a universe of moral ambiguity. Inspired by true events, Moby Dick is a work of astonishing psychological depth. It is perhaps the finest sea story ever told and one of the great classics of literature.
