Paper Summary:

A paper which compares and discusses the main character, Bartleby, and the narrator, in "Bartleby, the Scrivener" by Herman Melville, the great American author. The paper explores who they were and what their lives meant.

From the Paper:

"Melville is one of America's greatest writers. His best-known work is "Moby Dick," and "Billy Budd." Much of Melville's work was not published until after his death, including a book of poems, and many short stories. "Melville wrote because he 'he could not keep from writing,' but he rewrote so frequently, even after he had sent his work to the printer, that any lover of Melville is almost inevitably drawn into examining his 'fluid text.' ' multiple versions can give us tremendous insight into the writer's creative process and how a piece of writing evolves'" (Briggs)."
