Billy Budd and Typee: Notes
By O.B. EmersonForty years separate the writing of these books, and Melville's moral concerns are highly visible in "Billy Budd," in which a young sailor willingly accepts his punishment after accidentally killing an evil man. In "Typee," Melville romanticized his own adventures as a merchant seaman on a Polynesian island. "Typee" is generally considered nothing more than adventure and travel writing, whereas "Billy Budd" is open to interpretation and is considered a much more literary work.
