About This Book
The Routledge Companion to Joseph Conrad attests to the global significance and enduring importance of Conrad's works, reception, and legacy.
This volume brings together an international roster of scholars who consider his works in relation to biography, narrative, politics, women's studies, comparative literature, and other forms of art. They offer approaches as diverse as re-examining Conrad's sea voyages using newly available digital materials, analyzing his archipelagic narrative techniques, applying Chinese philosophy to Lord Jim, interrogating gendered epistemology in the neglected story "The Tale, " considering Conrad alongside W.E.B. Du Bois, Graham Greene, Virginia Woolf, or Orhan Pamuk, or alongside sound, gesture, opera, graphic novels, or contemporary events.
An invaluable resource for students and scholars of Conrad and twentieth-century literature, this groundbreaking collection shows how Conrad's works â their artistry, vision, and ideas â continue to challenge, perplex, and delight.
