Observing the conspicuous similarities between Melville’s short stories published in literary magazines in mid-1850s and the works by popular authors in terms of their subject matter and styles, some critics argue either that Melville has traded in the literary market by adjusting his writing or that he has employed deceptive story-telling to explore serious topics in his works. Most critics agree, however, that throughout his writing career Melville never earnestly compromised his “great Art of Telling the Truth” (MD 523). Nevertheless, these critics have not satisfactorily elucidated the continuity between Melville’s more serious novels and his “humorous, magazinish” stories. Focusing on “The Paradise of Bachelors and the Tartarus of Maids,” a story published in 1855 in Harper’s Magazine, this essay illustrates the continuity of Melville’s writing discernable even while he assumes the identity of a “magazinist.” In particular, this essay examines Melville’s exploration of the possibility of fiction writing by understanding the narrator’s realization of the connection between color and pain in relation to Ishmael’s philosophical speculation on the two contradictory meanings of whiteness in Moby-Dick. The narrator’s observation that the lives of both the pain-denying bachelors and the pain-deprived maids are empty and infertile allows him to gain a new perspective on whiteness which is comparable to “a colorless, all-color of atheism” (MD 165) that leads to “the thought of annihilation.” Melville’s figuring himself in the narrator who changes his perspective on his job as a seedsman after his painful visits to the Paradise and the Tartarus thus suggests that despite his frustration about the reception of his serious novels by his reading public, he still endeavored to conduct an agonizing but inevitable interrogation of the meaning of human existence.
