He explains when and where in Melville's wanderings throughout America, Europe, and the Near East he saw these works, then describes how Melville made use of the life and work of these artists in his own fiction and poetry. The collection includes new essays on Moby Dick and J.M.W. Turner; Melville's fascination with Dutch genre painting; his appropriation of work by Cole and Vanderlyn for his magazine fiction; his use of early representations of the plague in Israel Potter; the relationship between the satirical cartoons of Daumier and the figures of The Confidence-Man; Timoleon's many artistic subjects; and the power of classical icons to shape the moral and aesthetic conflicts in Billy Budd. Also found here are theoretical essays on Melville and the picturesque; the modernism of Melville's aesthetic vision; his "anti-architectural" theory of literature; and his extensive reading in art history and art theory, from the classical to his own period.

Book Description
It's the long, hot summer of 1958, and on the surface, everything is swinging in Los Angeles, the City of Angels. But for struggling private eye Johnny Davis, behind the ring-a-ding-ding veneer of sharp suits, bottle blondes and Tiki bars lies something far more unsettling and sinister. What starts out as just another case quickly turns into a nightmare of mind-altering drugs, deception, lust and murder. And, in an era when the old certainties are being challenged, the biggest betrayal of all is yet to come as Johnny begins to question his own loyalties.
