[PAR] [TLE] Herman Melville [SEP] Herman Melville (August 1, 1819 – September 28, 1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period.  His best known works include "Typee" (1846), a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, and his whaling novel "Moby-Dick" (1851).  His work was almost forgotten during his last thirty years.  His writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change.  He developed a complex, baroque style: the vocabulary is rich and original, a strong sense of rhythm infuses the elaborate sentences, the imagery is often mystical or ironic, and the abundance of allusion extends to biblical scripture, myth, philosophy, literature, and the visual arts. [PAR] [TLE] Capitaine Achab [SEP] Capitaine Achab (in English, "Captain Ahab") is a 2004 French short film directed by Philippe Ramos.  It is an interpretation of "Moby-Dick" by Herman Melville.  In the film, Albert falls in love with Louise, whose white skin is symbolized in his dreams by the whale Moby Dick.  The film was presented at the Cannes Film Festival and Pantin in 2004.
