Israel Potter Fifty Years in Exile
Israel Potter A masterpiece that combines the War of Independence, one of the crossroads in American history, with the themes of captivity, exile and travel. In this historical novel, written at the peak of his literary prowess, Melville is based on the autobiography of War of Independence veteran Israel Potter, written by a ghost writer. In the background of the novel's hero's years of exile, there are improvised depictions of famous naval battles, unique to Melville. While Israel Potter's arduous journey and historical mission in England and France transform him into an almost mythical-sacred figure, the rhetoric of independence is woven with various references from the Old Testament to Greek mythology. Israel Potter is a unique narrative about the new temperament created by the legacy of Western civilization in the American War of Independence.
"Melville emphasizes the peak reached by the common man in Israel Potter."
