Conor's Discussion Question (Ch. 36-42) 12/17/2012
In Chapter 42, Ishmael mentions how white symbolizes "terror". Should readers see Melville's depiction as a revisionist's view of society because he flips the universal meaning for peace and surrender for horror and despair?
If so, does this undermine Ahab's mission for revenge or indorse it?
