Colin Spears Discussion Question 4

Discussion Question 4

1. What is the significance that the Rachel, an obvious illusion to the biblical figure, picks up the "orphan" Ishamael?

2. In chapter 125, after the log and line snap and Ahab gets in a fight with the Manxman, Ahab says to Pip, "I feel prouder leading thee by thy black hand, than though I grasped an Emperor's" (392). Does Ahab share abolitionist views, or is he just a crazy mad man on the seas?
