The book belongs to the so-called American Renaissance and has been classified from late Romanticism to early symbolism.. When it was published it received mixed reviews and was a commercial failure and when its authors died in 1891 it was no longer printed. His reputation as a great American novel began to spread in the early 20th century., on the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Herman Melville.
It is now considered one of the masterpieces of American and world literature. The book was first published in England on 18 October 1851 with the title "The Whale" and a little later, at 14 November 1851, in the USA, with the title "Moby Dick or The Whale". This is a sea adventure, full of symbolism and metaphors.
