Joseph Conrad's "Heart Of Darkness" - Economic Imperialism
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
4 pages in length. To say Joseph Conrad had a forthright objective when penning his celebrated Heart of Darkness is to acknowledge how the author utilized his literary prowess to expose a threatening component of an otherwise civilized human race. The time Conrad spent in the Congo opened his eyes to the pervasiveness of economic imperialism to such a degree that he was compelled to stage the public critique that took place at the turn of the twentieth century within the pages of his renowned novel, a bleak episode in Africa's history that was not entirely collaborative with Jules Ferry's claims. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
