Abstract of the article; @melville-society.bsky.social
Very happy to share that my article in the new issue of #Leviathan is out! It discusses Melville's Clarel, and the possibility of reading a philosophy of secularization at work in the poem. Many thanks to Melville scholars far and near for their friendship and support!🐋

#AmLit friends! A student asked if the "Shafters" referred to in chapter 9 of The Great Gatsby ("No wasting time at Shafters") in Gatsby's list of general resolves actually refers to something existent in 19th c. middle-town life? I thought of a mere "effet de réel" but who knows...?

Ne dites plus "le fond de l'air est frais", mais "it was the most delightful of all days for a walk, with a dash of invigorating ice-temper in the air, but a coolness that soon gave place to the brisk glow of exercise, while the vigor remained as elastic as before." (The Blithedale Romance)

A pinhole camera photo taken from Summer to Winter Solstice. It's a bit blurry as the aperture was made with a tiny needle and no focus mechanism. There are yellow to green lines across the photo, that's the Sun moving across the sky over the course of a day. The top line is from the Summer Solstice, the bottom line from the Winter Solstice. Cloudy days don't have any lines or broken lines as the Sun was obscured by clouds. There are some trees on the left, right and in the background.
A pinhole camera photo, a 6 month exposure from Summer to Winter solstice. There are trees on the right side and background. A house with two cars in the drive are visible almost in the center of the photo. The lines are made from the Sun moving across the sky with the bottom line being the Winter Solstice and the top line the Summer solstice. On cloudy days the lines are broken or not visible as the sun was obscured by clouds. The lines show some reflections from a tree trunk. The lines are mostly a white color with some hints of blue, green and yellow in places. Some of the colors could be from rain or snow staining the paper I was using.
Happy Winter Solstice!
These photos were taken with a pinhole camera I made from a beer can and left out from Summer to Winter Solstice - a 6 month exposure.
Bottom line = Winter Solstice. Top line = Summer Solstice.
The lines are the Sun moving across the sky w/some reflections. No line = clouds
