AUTHOR

Dimock, Wai-Chee

SUMMARY

Wai Chee Dimock approaches Herman Melville not as a timeless genius, but as a historical figure caught in the politics of an imperial nation and an "imperial self." She challenges our customary view by demonstrating a link between the individualism that enabled Melville to write as a sovereign author and the nationalism that allowed America to grow into what Jefferson hoped would be an "empire for liberty."Dimock, Wai-Chee is the author of 'Empire for Liberty: Melville and the Poetics of Individualism - Wa' with ISBN 9780691067582 and ISBN 0691067589.
