    Identifying Conflicts

    What would you say are the major conflicts in Moby Dick
    I thought they were
    Ahab vs. Moby Dick (Man vs. nature)
    Ahab vs. crew (Man vs. Man)
    Ahab vs. himself (Man vs. himself)
    Crew vs. Moby Dick/ (Man vs. nature)
    I just wanted to know what everyone else's opinions on this were, and if there were any I might have missed.

    Wouldn't Crew vs. Moby Dick be more 'Humanity vs. Nature'? and perhaps the Ahab vs. Crew is Man vs. Society?

    Tbh I think you are over-analyzing
