Herman Melville (1819-1891) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist, and poet. His first two books gained much attention, though they were not bestsellers, and his popularity declined precipitously only a few years later. By the time of his death he had been almost completely forgotten, but his longest novel, Moby-Dick-largely considered a failure during his lifetime, and most responsible for Melville's fall from favor with the reading public-was rediscovered in the 20th century as one of the chief literary masterpieces of both American and world literature.
