Frederick Douglass (1818-1895) and Herman Melville (1819-1891) addressed in their writings a range of issues: the reach and limits of democracy; the nature of freedom; and, the roles of race, gender, and sexuality. This collection of eighteen essays explores the convergences and divergences of these two literary lives.
