A great novelist and short-story writer of the late nineteenth century, Joseph Conrad remains one of the most important literary figures of English literature. The present book is a compilation of critical articles of eminent writers deeply involved in studies on Conrad. By exploiting all major works of Conrad and also his critics who took interest in his art, the contributors have attempted to present an incisive and insightful analysis of Conrads literary genius. His masterpiece Heart of Darkness has been particularly studied with lucidity and profundity, and various elements like myth, loneliness, evil and racism contained in this well-knit work have been explored. Critical study of Conrads political vision and myth is another attraction of the present book. In addition, it aims at probing into Conrads sectarian penchant for his essentially literary perspective. It is hoped that the students and teachers of English literature and research scholars in fictionparticularly those interested in the study of Conradwill immensely benefit from this book while the general readers too will find it interesting and enjoyable.
