 Billy BuddHerman MelvilleHerman Melville's Billy Budd follows a good-hearted sailor who refuses to join a mutiny on the Bellipotent. A story of good and evil, Billy Budd is often interpreted with Billy as a savior figure and the weapons officer, Claggart — who seems to hate Billy only because of his goodness — as Satan. The novella has been central to the study of Hermann Melville's work since it was discovered in 1924, after Melville's death. Billy Budd was published later that same year. Search this CliffsNote
