Herman Melville

Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 – September 28, 1891) was an American writer and poet of the American Renaissance period. He is best known for his novel, Moby Dick. Melville’s works emphasized the importance of human communication and the problems that arise from a lack of it. Melville’s own metaphysical ponderings were also a huge influence on his work.
