The dissertation applies key concepts in the archetypal psychology of James Hillman to Herman Melville's Mardi and Pierre. By following the activities that Hillman refers to as pathologizing, psychologizing, personifying, dying, fictionalizing and imaging, and resisting interpretation, this study argues for a return to aesthetic readings of the novels and for a re-visioning of Melville's "psychic style." the thesis asserts that Melville was not simply examining political, philosophical, or cultural issues in Mardi and Pierre; he was "following the image" that is at the very core of what Hillman advocates and what Melville's narrators accomplish so well.
