Read through the lens of copyright experience, and the Pequod's voyage becomes a hallucinatory odyssey. Captain Ahab, driven by his monomania, embodies the mad prophet, consumed by visions that blur the line between the grand design. The whale itself, Moby Dick, becomes a manifestation of Ahab's trauma, a leviathan whose presence ripples through the very fabric of the narrative.
