Book Synopsis Heart of Darkness by : Joseph Conrad
Download or read book Heart of Darkness written by Joseph Conrad and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 1993-10-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a novella which remains highly controversial to this day, Conrad explores the relations between Africa and Europe. On the surface, this is a horrifying tale of colonial exploitation. The narrator, Marlowe journeys on business deep into the heart of Africa. But there he encounters Kurtz, an idealist apparently crazed and depraved by his power over the natives, and the meeting prompts Marlowe to reflect on the darkness at the heart of all men. This short but complex and often ambiguous story, which has been the basis of several films and plays, continues to provoke interpretation and discussion. Heart of Darkness grew out of a journey Joseph Conrad took up the Congo River; the verisimilitude that the great novelist thereby brought to his most famous tale everywhere enhances its dense and shattering power. Apparently a sailor’s yarn, it is in fact a grim parody of the adventure story, in which the narrator, Marlow, travels deep into the heart of the Congo where he encounters the crazed idealist Kurtz and discovers that the relative values of the civilized and the primitive are not what they seem. Heart of Darkness is a model of economic storytelling, an indictment of the inner and outer turmoil caused by the European imperial misadventure, and a piercing account of the fragility of the human soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: »Das Herz der Finsternis« von 1899 ist das bekannteste Werk des Bestsellerautors Joseph Conrad. In dem Roman verarbeitet Joseph Conrad seine eigenen Erfahrungen als Kapitän eines Flussdampfers auf dem Kongo. Joseph Conrad war Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts im Auftrag einer belgischen Handelsgesellschaft in Afrika unterwegs. Der Roman kann als Kritik am Verhalten der belgischen Kolonialherren verstanden werden. Im Roman »Das Herz der Finsternis« wundert sich der Flussdampferkapitän Marlowe bei seiner Handelsfahrt auf dem Kongo-Fluss über die Ausbeutung und Misshandlung von Schwarzen, die auf den belgischen Handelsposten entlang des Flusses zum Alltag gehört. Die lange Reise auf dem Boot führt Marlowe und seine Besatzung immer tiefer aus der Zivilisation in die Wildnis. Man erzählt ihm von dem legendären Elfenbeinhändler Kurtz, der sich auf seinem Handelsposten tief im Dschungel ein Reich nach ganz eigenen Regeln geschaffen hat. Kurtz führt seinen Posten gewaltsam und rücksichtslos. Er folgt in wilden Ausschweifungen seinen Instinkten. Marlow nimmt mit dem offenbar wahnsinnig gewordenen Kurtz Kontakt auf und versucht, ihn zur Rückreise nach Europa zu überreden. Doch der Aufenthalt im Einflussbereich des Unberechenbaren stellt sich als großes Risiko für Marlowes eigenes Leben heraus. »Das Herz der Finsternis« (engl. Heart of Darkness) diente als Romanvorlage für den Kinoerfolg »Apocalypse Now« mit Martin Sheen und Marlon Brando in den Hauptrollen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heart of Darkness, a novel by Joseph Conrad, was originally a three-part series in Blackwood's Magazine in 1899. It is a story within a story, following a character named Charlie Marlow, who recounts his adventure to a group of men onboard an anchored ship. The story told is of his early life as a ferry boat captain. Although his job was to transport ivory downriver, Charlie develops an interest in investing an ivory procurement agent, Kurtz, who is employed by the government. Preceded by his reputation as a brilliant emissary of progress, Kurtz has now established himself as a god among the natives in "one of the darkest places on earth." Marlow suspects something else of Kurtz: he has gone mad. A reflection on corruptive European colonialism and a journey into the nightmare psyche of one of the corrupted, Heart of Darkness is considered one of the most influential works ever written.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In seinem berühmten Roman ›Herz der Finsternis‹ verarbeitet Joseph Conrad seine abenteuerliche letzte Reise nach Afrika, die er nur mit viel Glück überlebte und die ihm für den Rest seines Lebens eine zerrüttete Gesundheit und alptraumhafte Erinnerungen bescherte. Kapitän Marlow berichtet von seiner Fahrt ins Innere eines unbekannten Kontinents. Die Reise in den Dschungel öffnet ihm nicht nur die Augen über die dunklen Abwege europäischer Eroberungen; sie wird zur Entdeckungsreise: ins Ungewisse der eigenen Existenz, in die Untiefen des Halb- und Unterbewusstseins, ins finstere Labyrinth von Lüge und Schuld. ›Herz der Finsternis‹ hat von Anfang an Leser und Interpreten fasziniert und hat bis heute nichts von seiner Aktualität eingebüßt. Die Neuübersetzung des berühmten Kongo-Thrillers: ein Meisterwerk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herz der Finsternis (engl. Originaltitel Heart of Darkness) ist eine Erzählung aus dem Jahre 1899 von Joseph Conrad. Die Novelle ist in eine Rahmenhandlung eingebettet: Auf der nächtlich an der Themsemündung in Gravesend stillliegenden Seeyacht Nellie erzählt der ehemalige Seemann Marlow seinen vier Freunden, die das Band der See eint, eine Episode aus seinem Leben. Er beschreibt seine Sehnsucht, die letzten weißen Flecken des Globus kennenzulernen, und wie sie nach einigen Mühen dazu führte, dass er Flusskapitän wurde. Der Leser kann unschwer erkennen, dass die Geschichte am Kongo zu Zeiten des Kongo-Freistaats spielt. Marlow, der den Indischen Ozean, den Pazifik, das Gelbe Meer bereits kennt, reist also entlang der Küste eines ihm unverständlichen Afrika zur Mündung des großen Stroms und übernimmt, flussaufwärts oberhalb der Stromschnellen, seinen Flussdampfer, der zwischenzeitlich auf Grund gelaufen und leckgeschlagen ist.

Download or read book The Reception of Joseph Conrad in Europe written by Robert Hampson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-05 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born and brought up in Poland bilingually in French and Polish but living for most of his professional life in England and writing in English, Joseph Conrad was, from the start, as much a European writer as he was a British one and his work – from his earliest fictions through Heart of Darkness, Nostromo and The Secret Agent to his later novels– has repeatedly been the focal point of discussions about key issues of the modern age. With chapters written by leading international scholars, this book provides a wide-ranging survey of the reception, translation and publication history of Conrad's works across Europe. Covering reviews and critical discussion, and with some attention to adaptations in other media, these chapters situate Conrad's works in their social and political context. The book also includes bibliographies of key translations in each of the European countries covered and a timeline of Conrad's reception throughout the continent.

This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting Heart of Darkness (Large Print Edition) by Joseph Conrad. This classic is part of The Great Books Series by Golding Books. An allegorical novel (or precisely a novella) like no other, Heart of Darkness is a masterpiece of psychological fiction and one of many classic sea stories from Joseph Conrad, though the action predominantly takes place on the Congo River. Charles Marlow captains a steamboat for an ivory trading company, and grows obsessed with ivory trader Kurtz, who has turned himself into a charismatic demigod of the local tribes. Heart of Darkness examines what it means to be civilized, and in asking questions about imperialism and racism it suggests much about who people at the time called "savages" and who is the cause of darkness. It is one of the most gripping and incisive of dark classics, and is also an excellent introductory point to classic and complex short novels or more serious literature (including its suitability as young adult literature). Golding Books' Great Books Series, along with its Essential Series, comprises a wide variety of classic, influential and important books. These two series aim to champion not only remarkable and recognized literary achievements, but also to highlight the meaningful and significant works of lesser-known authors.

Joseph Conrad was born Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski in the Russian Empire (now Ukraine, and once part of the Kingdom of Poland) in 1857. Because of his father's attempts at farming and political activism, the family moved repeatedly (such as to Warsaw, Vologda, and Chernihiv) and Conrad was home-schooled. An aloof and often depressed man, 20-year-old Conrad attempted suicide by shooting himself in the chest with a revolver. Born a Russian subject, he was granted British nationality in 1886 after joining the British merchant marine in 1878, and eventually settled in Kent, England. About half of his 19-year merchant marine career was spent at sea; he achieved captain's rank after working in numerous crew roles. His most popular novels include The Nigger of the 'Narcissus' (1897), Heart of Darkness (1899), Lord Jim (1900), Typhoon (1902), Nostromo (1904), and The Secret Agent (1907). After suffering throughout his life from issues with his physical and mental health, Conrad died of a likely heart attack at the age of 66.
