Leviathan features a bounty of scholarly articles, notes, reviews, and creative writing of a critical, theoretical, cultural, or historical nature on the impressive body of work of American novelist and poet Herman Melville (1819-1891).

Leviathan also regularly publishes special issues, book reviews, interviews, and poems.
