評分Truly weird... 康拉德果真不是英國人,波蘭血統誠不我欺。讀Heart of Darkness的時候很輕易地就被康拉德的文字帶入剛果的黑暗腹地,並被捲入一片深邃的未知,這可能也就是Kurtz的恐懼來源,相比之下第二篇Secret Sharer就要好讀得多。讀過這兩篇後纔真切理解Sunless Sea裏晦澀文本的啓發來自康拉德而非愛手藝,初玩無光之海的時候,誰還不是Secret Sharer裏孤立無援的年輕船長呢。Heart of Darkness真乃神品中篇,待精讀重刷。另,開頭的序言寫得很好,比網上那些雜七雜八的書評分析得透徹多瞭。
評分Its not the story but the way of telling that captured me. A call of the wild for we who live in such a so called civiled world.
評分真是英式英語啊。。。最終還是沒看下去。。
評分a rare and weird beauty
Conrad was born on 12/3/1857, in a part of Russia that had once belonged to Poland. His parents were members of the landed gentry, but as ardent Polish patriots they suffered considerably for their political views. Orphaned at 11, Conrad attended school in Cracow but concluded that there was no future for him in occupied Poland, and at 16 he left forever. The sea was Conrad's love and career for the next 20 years; in the British merchant navy, he rose finally to captain, sailing to Australia and Borneo and surviving at least one shipwreck. In 1890 he became captain of a Congo River steamer, but this led only to disillusionment and ill health and this would become the basis for Conrad's masterpiece, Heart of Darkness. Reluctantly leaving the merchant service, he settled in England and completed his first novel, Almayer's Folly, already begun at sea.
Heart of Darkness is a novella by Joseph Conrad. Before publication, it appeared in a three-part series in Blackwood's Magazine (1899). This highly symbolic story is actually a story within a story, or frame tale, following a man named Charlie Marlow, as he recounts his adventure to a group of men, onboard a ship anchored in the Thames Estuary, at dusk and continuing into the evening. It details an incident earlier in Marlow's life when he, an Englishman, takes a foreign assignment as a ferry boat captain on what readers can assume is the Congo River in the Belgian owned Congo Free State; the name of the country is never specified in the text. Though his job is to transport ivory downriver, Marlow quickly develops an intense interest in investigating Kurtz, an ivory procurement agent in the employment of the government. Kurtz's reputation extends throughout the region.
Publisher Comments:
Heart Of Darkness. The story of the civilized, enlightened Mr. Kurtz who embarks on a harrowing "night journey" into the savage heart of Africa, only to find his dark and evil soul. The Secret Sharer. The saga of a young, inexperienced skipper forced to decide the fate of a fugitive sailor who killed a man in self-defense. As he faces his first moral test the skipper discovers a terrifying truth — and comes face to face with the secret itself. Heart Of Darkness and The Secret Sharer draw on actual events and people that Conrad met or heard about during his many far-flung travels. In portraying men whose incredible journeys on land and at sea are also symbolic voyages into their own mysterious depths, these two masterful works give credence to Conrad's acclaim as a major psychological writer.
康拉德的法语比英语好,当时据说英语写作更利于出版,他在20岁时开始学习英语。 F.R.利维斯在《伟大的传统》中列举大量的例子批评康拉德的英语: The same vocabulary, the same adjective insistence upon inexpressible and incomprehensible mystery, is applied to the evo...
評分刚读完黑暗的心,诚如许多评论所言,阅读过程比较费劲,或许是情节不对胃口,或许是语言有点晦涩,或许是叙事方式有点跳跃,可能都有点吧,但是,我觉得康拉德的厉害之处在于他跳脱了英国当时流行的叙事范式:多次变换的叙事视角,嵌套故事,放弃对故事情节的执念,注重人物心...

評分英国文学史课上初读约瑟夫·康拉德的英文版《黑暗之心》(The Heart of Darkness)时,我毫不例外被作者笔下刻画出的十九与二十世纪之交,帝国主义和殖民主义所衍生出的霸权统治的野蛮、种族压迫的晦暗、现代文明的矛盾所深深震撼。然而,当体验了社会性别与女性研究的知识后,...
