Herman
Melville
examines
the
physical
appearances
of his
characters
through
a
focus
on
tattoos
and
disguises
. The
physical
appearance
of the
body
or
changes
to
it
become
central
to the
personal
identity
of the
character
within
the
story
and the
interpretation
of that
character
made
by
other
characters
within
the
stories
or by the
reading
audience
. The
focus
on
appearance
objectifies
the
character
in the
eyes
of
another
and at
times
causes
assumptions
on the
part
of the
observer
as to the
underlying
personality
of the
character
.
