Heart of Darkness

Joseph Conrad (originally Józef Teodor Konrad Nalecz Korzeniowski) was born in the Ukraine in 1857 and grew up under Tsarist autocracy. His parents, ardent Polish patriots, died when he was a child, following their exile for anti-Russian activities, and he came under the protection of his tradition-conscious uncle, Thaddeus Bobrowski, who watched over him for the next twenty-five years. In 1874 Bobrowski conceded to his nephew's passionate desire to go to sea, and Conrad travelled to Marseilles, where he served in French merchant vessels before joining a British ship in 1878 as an apprentice.

.

In 1886 he obtained British nationality and his Master's certificate in the British Merchant Service. Eight years later he left the sea to devote himself to writing, publishing his first novel, Almayer's Folly, in 1895. The following year he married Jessie George and eventually settled in Kent, where he produced within fifteen years such modern classics as Youth, Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, Typhoon, Nostromo, The Secret Agent and Under Western Eyes. He continued to write until his death in 1924. Today Conrad is generally regarded as one of the greatest writers of fiction in English - his third language. He once described himself as being concerned "with the ideal value of things, events and people" in the Preface to The Nigger of the Narcissus he defined his task as "by the power of the written word ... before all, to make you see."

Originally published in 1902, Heart of Darkness remains one of this century's most enduring - and harrowing - works of fiction. Written several years after Conrad's grueling sojourn in the Belgian Congo, the novel tells the story of Marlow, a seaman who undertakes his own journey into the African jungle to find the tormented white trader Kurtz. Rich in irony and spellbinding prose, Heart of Darkness is a complex meditation on colonialism, evil, and the thin line between civilization and barbarity.

This edition contains selections from Conrad's Congo Diary of 1890 - the first notes, in effect, for the novel which was composed at the end of that decade. Virginia Woolf wrote of Conrad, "His books are full of moments of vision. They light up a whole character in a flash. . . . He could not write badly, one feels, to save his life."

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

黑暗深处有什么?这是个很恐怖的问题,谁知道黑暗深处会有什么?也许什么都没有,也许有美好的东西,也许是可怕的东西,因为看不到,所以一切都有可能,但是很奇怪,对这黑暗中的千万种可能总是下意识的觉得是不祥的所在。 约瑟夫·康拉德以及他的这本《黑暗深处》保...  

評分

1889年到90年期间,康拉德受一家比利时贸易公司之托前往刚果河一带,身份是一艘蒸汽船的船长---然而即使没有这段背景,我也总不由自主地把故事的第二讲述者---马洛---等同于作者:原因在于,我实在无法想象一位从来没有见识过河流和丛林、没有体验过神秘凄凉的黑暗、...  

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,...

嚇人倒怪的。。喜歡Intended的beautiful expression

Marlow作為貫穿康拉德四部作品的敘述者,在這部作品中保持瞭其對於理解的一貫渴望以及理解的一貫無果。The "heart" of darkness, heart其實可以用“中心”一義解,隨著Marlow追隨Kurtz的路徑逐漸深入剛果殖民地,在地理、心理兩個層麵抵達Kurtz墮落的終點站,Marlow對Kurtz的理解卻毫無進展,反而越發迷惑,一切理解對象自始至終處於光暈(haze)之中。臨終前的Kurtz臥於昏暗的房間,Marlow提著手中的一盞燈走近他,康拉德將這一刻的光影交錯描繪得細緻入微,燈下的Kurtz迎來瞭他在全書中最明亮的時刻,而Marlow這盞試圖理解的燈卻仍舊無法還原Kurtz墮落的過程。地理、心理兩個層麵抵達Kurtz墮落的終點站,Marlow對Kurtz的理解卻...
