- W2501534835 abstract "“Though I wrote the Gospels in this century, I should die in the gutter,” wrote Melville in June 1851, while putting the final touches on his “Whale” (Corr 192). That Melville could anticipate the failure of his grand, all-encompassing Bible did not make the lack of recognition that followed the publication of Moby-Dick any easier. Melville kept on writing after this major blow, but he did not venture to fashion a new text of scriptural scope until he set to work on Clarel. Published in 1876, Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land is a four-part poem of 18,000 dense, constricted, labyrinthine lines that offers an even more obsessive and excessive juggling of biblical texts than Moby-Dick. Years after its publication, Melville would describe Clarel as a “metrical affair, a pilgrimage or what not, of several thousand lines, eminently adapted for unpopularity” (Corr 483).2 His new Bible was by no means an attempt to make his exegetical imagination more palatable to the reading public. It remains a sealed book for most readers until today, though it has drawn an increasing number of admirers in the past two decades." @default.
