Moby dick, английский
The mythical great white whale featured in herman melville’s 1851 classic novel was based on mocha dick, a scarred bull whale who attacked many whaleboats, the first being near mocha island off south america in 1810. his fictitious description of moby dick’s attack on pequod was doubtless inspired by the true story of nantucket whaler essex, sunk by a whale in mid–pacific in 1820.
