Billy Budd is a novella begun around 1886 by American author Herman Melville, left unfinished at his death in 1891 and not published until 1924. The work has been central to Melville scholarship since it was discovered in manuscript form among Melvilles papers in 1924 by Raymond Weaver, his first biographer, and subsequently published the same year.
