Cries in the deepness: utopical allegories in Moby Dick and the nominalism in the William of Ockham's work. The Herman Melville's work, Moby Dick, is a constituted utopia inside condensed circumstances in the whale and in captain Ahab figures. The psychoanalysis in its semantic understanding, in which implication involves the psychological subject, potentiates the singularity and puts it to a challenge that oversteps the logic time when there is a meeting on the utopian creation. The nominalism from the Brittan philosophy Ockham problematizes the knowledge dynamic to formulate a method that cuts the excessive explanations (the razor) and inquires what the pathway to the human ownership making sense of discern field of knowledge, this trail is being searched in the Melville's work.
