 Jacket 24 - James Keery - ‘Schönheit Apocalyptica’: An Approach to "The White Stones" by J.H. Prynne
St John the Divine’s image of the gift of a stone is a paradoxical renewal of the Sermon on the Mount: ‘Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?’ (Matthew 7:9).
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
Scott is reluctant to consider the possibility that what appears on the white stone — ‘a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it’ — might be the Logos itself.

 Amazon.ca: Books: White-Jacket: Or, the World in a Man-of-War
The introductory essay to this book discusses White Jacket in relationship to the growing bro-ha-ha over slavery, but I thought the book was much more interesting then that.
It's a melange of events, descriptive passages and polemic, narrated by the eponymous White-Jacket, whom I suspect of being Melville himself.
And much of the description of life aboard a man-of-war is fascinating -- the book would make a helpful companion for people reading modern novels such as O'Brian's series.

 White-Jacket; or, The World in a Man-of-War
I have no reason to love the particular gentleman who filled that post aboard of our frigate, for it was he who refused my petition for as much black paint as would render water-proof that white jacket of mine.
I proposed, that not only should my jacket keep me warm, but that it should also be so constructed as to contain a shirt or two, a pair of trowsers, and divers knick-knacks—sewing utensils, books, biscuits, and the like.
Prepare for white squalls, living gales and Typhoons; read accounts of shipwrecks and horrible disasters; peruse the Narratives of Byron and Bligh; familiarize yourselves with the story of the English frigate Alceste, and the French frigate Medusa.

 Jacket # 4 - Tom Clark's White Thought reviewed by Dale Smith
They also are crafted with great focus and sealed with the perfection of a poet's intimate knowledge of lives that fall apart inside and out.
What was once familiar turns strange as, in "Light Sleeper," "the shapes before my eyes became / obscure as all those lost relationships, / as all the ballast of familiar life" (p.
The failure of life, the aging body and the enduring pain of mortal awareness, conflicted by "the blood of good and 'simple' people," connect these poems under the hermetic cloud of "white thought." In "Time Goes By, We Are Here," Clark writes:

 Amazon.com: Books: Stupid White Men ...and Other Sorry Excuses for the State of the Nation!
Michael Moore, the award-winning provocateur behind Roger & Me and the bestseller Downsize This!, now returns to size up the new century -- and that big, ugly special-interest group that's laying waste to the world as we know it: stupid white men.
But Moore's rage is outrageous, couched in shameless gags and madcap comedy: "Old white men wielding martinis and wearing dickies have occupied our nation's capital....
The government has been seized by a ne'er-do-well rich boy and his elderly henchmen.

 Blue Jacket wasn't white man, DNA suggests
Van Swearingen but grew interested in the story while researching his own family tree.
According to the book, Blue Jacket was the son of white settlers who was adopted by the Shawnee when a hunting party came upon the 17-year-old boy in a West Virginia woods in 1771.
Descendants of celebrated Shawnee war chief Blue Jacket for years have fought the story that he really was a white man who started life as Marmaduke Van Swearingen.

 Melville White Jacket Essays - Melville's White Jacket as Public Forum on Corporal Punishment
Melville stated, "He knows the same law which impels it-the same law by which the culprits of the day must suffer; that by that very law he also is liable at any time to be judged and condemned.
In his frantic last moments prior to flogging, White Jacket envisioned himself grabbing Captain Claret and flinging them both over the side to the more forgiving sea.
Each of these characters spoke out against corporal punishment in the narrative; however, the ultimate decision to punish the men remained in the hands of the unforgiving captains at sea.

 The White Jacket - or World on a Man-of-War by Herman Melville e-Book
In due time the Portuguese paid the penalty of his rashness at the gangway; while once again the officers shipped their quarter-deck faces.
Gangs of men, in all sorts of outlandish habiliments, wild as those worn at some crazy carnival, rushed to and fro, seizing upon whomsoever they pleased—­warrant-officers and dangerous pugilists excepted—­pulling and hauling the luckless tars about, till fairly baited into a genial warmth.
