HEART OF DARKNESS*AN OUTPOST OF PROGRESS*KARAIN*YOUTH The finest of all Conrad's tales, 'Heart of Darkness' is set in an atmosphere of mystery and menace, and tells of Marlow's perilous journey up the Congo River to relieve his employer's agent, the renowned and formidable Mr Kurtz. What he sees on his journey, and his eventual encounter with Kurtz, horrify and perplex him, and call into question the very bases of civilization and human nature. Endlessly reinterpreted by critics and adapted for film, radio, and television, the story shows Conrad at his most intense and sophisticated. The other three tales in this volume depict corruption and obsession, and question racial assumptions. Set in the exotic surroundings of Africa, Malaysia. and the east, they variously appraise the glamour, folly, and rapacity of imperial adventure. This revised edition uses the English first edition texts and has a new chronology and bibliography.

评分雖然課很無聊，好歹有瞭次重溫經典的機會。讀瞭一堆postcolonial的批評，森森覺得文學文本給人帶來的愉悅永遠是文學批評比不上的。人類情感與想象之豐富偉大，遠非任何理論框架可以圈劃。經典之所以為經典，確有其難以顛覆的道理，而摻雜瞭政治種族意識形態的解讀，即使一時引起轟動，終究逃脫不瞭曆史與共識的評判。難怪連Eagleton都要呼籲迴歸審美，迴歸文學本質。這本不遠萬裏帶迴來的書終於不再沉睡在書架上瞭……

评分沒想到是接近現代筆法的類型。敘事很不傳統。expressionist，symbolic，even stream of consciousness。揭露瞭許多Belgian的colonial vice。可當canonic之名。
评分An unwitting expedition into the deepest and darkest core of human nature. How utterly hopeless and helpless must one be in the face of the immense dark power of the world in solitude. Brutal and shocking
