    Grapple with Herman Melville’s classic whale of a tale! Led by Melville scholar and Associate Professor at St. Joseph’s University Dr. Peter Norberg, the first course in this six-session reading group charts a passage through "Moby-Dick", taking bearings from Melville’s life and from the novel’s context in classic literature.

    Participants will also investigate related objects in the Rosenbach collections, including Melville’s bookcase.
