The 18th century is a turbulent time for the British Royal Navy, with several mutinies following each other and the looming French Navy on the horizon. Young Billy Budd is pressed into naval service against will, with his innocence and charm belying the harsh realities of life at sea. The good-natured and physically impressive Billy quickly becomes the embodiment of both admiration and envy among the crew. As the narrative unfolds, Billy’s moral integrity clashes with the strict and unforgiving naval code, leading to a tragic confrontation with the conflicted master-at-arms, John Claggart. Herman Melville crafts a gripping tale that explores the complexities of morality, justice, and the inherent tensions between the individual and the institution.
HERMAN MELVILLE [1819-1891] was an American poet and novelist. Melville was not popular during his own lifetime and largely forgotten upon his death, however, during the 20th century his work was rediscovered and his novel Moby-Dick [1851] is today considered one of the great American novels.
