Moby-Dick; or, The Whale est mythistoria de inceptis audacibus ab Arminio Melville die 18 Octobris anno 1851 divulgata, quae more Romantismi putatur. Fabulam historiam enarrat magni Physeteri macrocephali albi, cuius nomen est titulus libri; navarchae quoque Ahab, qui hunc cetum adeo odit ut saeve eum delere velit; nautarum praeterea navis Pequod, quae maria hunc cetum quaerens metitur.
Opus themata philosophiae sicut statum socialem, classem, existentiam Dei scribit. Nomina personarum sicut Ahab et Ismael ex Vetere Testamento carpta sunt.
