Melville’s paragraphing in his best work Berthoff considers to be the virtuous result of “compactness of form and free assembling of unanticipated further data”, such as when the mysterious sperm whale is compared with Exodus’s invisibility of God’s face in the final paragraph of Chapter 86 (“The Tail”). Over time Melville’s paragraphs became shorter as his sentences grew longer, until he arrived at the “one-sentence paragraphing characteristic of his later prose”. Berthoff points to the opening chapter of The Confidence-Man for an example, as it counts fifteen paragraphs, seven of which consist of only one elaborate sentence, and four that have only two sentences. The use of similar technique in Billy Budd contributes in large part, Berthoff says, to its “remarkable narrative economy”.
