Descent Into Madness

About Me

My name is Kelsi James. I am a junior at Washington State University in the Data Analytics program. My focus is on Data Visualization. This class was my first experience with HTML and Web Design. Although challenging at first, I've been able to explore a new avenue of creativity through web design.

I chose Moby-Dick as the subject of my website because it is a timeless work of literature that offers profound insights into themes such as obsession, the human condition, and the natural world. Herman Melville’s intricate narrative and rich symbolism continue to captivate readers and provoke thought, making it a perfect subject for exploration. The novel’s complex characters, particularly Captain Ahab and the elusive white whale, invite deep analysis and interpretation, while its blend of adventure, philosophy, and literary innovation provides endless avenues for discussion. By focusing on Moby-Dick, I hope to share my appreciation for this literary masterpiece and invite others to engage with its enduring relevance and significance.
