Abstract
Unlike other poets who wrote headnotes for each major division of their epics, Herman Melville offers little in the way of interpretive aids for readers of his 1876 epic Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land. This guide provides readers an interpretive summary of each of Clarel’s 150 cantos, highlighting the major themes of Melville’s poem.
