that he refuses to submit to any higher power. he does not worship the superiority of forces beyond himself. and he is god-like in that he is larger than life.ahab gathers many crewmen and gives a speech which aims to ask their help for a single purpose tocatch the moby-dick, one large sperm whale with a snow-white head. he is mad and costs everything for killing moby-dick. he wants to revenge for the whale injured one of his legs. the other reason why they want to kill the whale is for the peace of pacific. starbuck, a sincere quaker and the fine leader, wants to persuade the captain to give up the plan. he argues repeatedly that the ships main purpose is to gatheroil and return home safely. unfortunately, the captain threats him and he acquiesces. eventually they find moby-dick and fight for a long time. ahab hits it by harpoon which angers it.moby-dick crashes the boat and all the crewmen miss in the sea except ishmael. at last the revenge fails. when the captain is irritable, these crewmen show their comprehension and forgiveness. they keep loyal to the captain even the captain condemns them. i appreciate these crewmens spirit fortheir cooperation, loyalty, bravery and

beings have a long history of whaling, and more and more people engage in the enterprise. from the film, we can see these seamen have killed many whales before they find the white whale moby-dick.these seamen destroy nature first, sothere are no reasons for human to revenge. the reason why the author chooses the main character white whale is that it represents pure and innocence. i think nature should be peaceful, quiet and kind. if people could understand the harmonious relationship between human and nature and do not disturb it, then nature will not destroy human beings. otherwise, human will be devastated inevitably by nature. in the film the battle between moby-dick seamen represents the battle betweenhumanand nature. whales originally live in the sea carelessly and never attack human beings forwardly. in the film the scene that people hit whales violently can prove it. the whale puts itself in dilemma just because it has torn off ahabs leg. moby dick has encountered numerous chases by ahab and these seamen. the whale just hides aw
