He's a mean man for wanting to kill Moby Dick
Moby Dick is a fictional character in the novel of the same name by Herman Melville. The whale Moby Dick is depicted as a powerful and formidable creature, often seen as a symbol of nature's unpredictability and indifference towards humans. In the story, Moby Dick's actions are driven more by survival instincts and natural instincts rather than any moral intentions of being nice or mean.
captin ahab is the only "mean one" i can think of
"Populous" means having a large population or being densely populated. In the context of Moby Dick, it may refer to areas or cities with a significant number of people.
There are many who debate this. Some believe the name refers to the Whales place of origin the isles of mocha and dik. However Melville did not name his whale Mocha Dick and thank god for that could you imagine all the contemporary papers that would have been wirtten on the white man's fear of the African American phaleus. I will state the answer is more obvious. Moby is simply from word mob a shortening of mobile a moving organized unit and and dick which origins mean powerful. Moby Dick is simply moving power.
Ahab uses this metaphor to represent why he needs to kill Moby Dick. He compares his revenge and hate to pasteboard (cardboard) masks or walls around his mind allowing him to think of nothing else but his revenge. He says that unless he breaks through these masks (kills the whale) he will not be at peace and it will drive him crazy. He is talking about the Power or Force behind all parts of Nature. Ahab believes it is a malicious Force that creates everything man sees; so, when we see beauty in the world and experience benevolence in Nature, we are being deceived if we believe the Force is kind or benevolent or loving. It is evil; and Moby Dick is not a just a whale-he is the embodiment of the Evil that creates human suffering for his own pleasure. And the closest thing Ahab can do to striking the Force is to kill its embodiment-the white whale that caused his suffering. Ahab believes GOD is evil. Ralph Waldo Emerson admired Melville's work, but he thought this belief went a little "overboard" (if you'll excuse the pun).
Ahab is a biblical name meaning "uncle" or "father's brother." It is commonly associated with the character in the Book of Kings who was a wicked king of Israel. In literature, Ahab is also known as the obsessed captain in Herman Melville's novel "Moby-Dick."
Pequod is the name of a fictional whaling ship in Herman Melville's novel Moby Dick. The name is derived from the Pequot, a Native American tribe that once inhabited parts of New England. it represents a connection to the maritime history and culture of the region where the story is set.
It depends on the context. If you mean "Call me, Ishmael" as in that you wish for an Ishmael to call you (usually by phone), the translation would be: Attasel bi, Esma3il (أتصل بي إسماعيل) If you are referring to the first line of Moby Dick, where the verb "to call" is used to to mean "to be named". Most Arab translations of Moby Dick translate the line as My name is Ishmael: Esmi Esma3il (إسمي إسماعيل)
