    “Over the Edge”: Liminal aspects of Conrad’s Heart of Darkness

    Opis:
    Heart of Darkness is often seen as a parable on the subject of human nature or as a critique of modern Western civilization and its colonial crimes. The novella was obviously planned not as a story ‘about’ Africa, but above all as a story that makes the reader – like Marlow – confront the experience of an unknown cultural context. As such, it is an exemplary tale about the meeting of cultures and the experience of cultural otherness, which cannot be reduced to a mere epistemological pattern. This article is an attempt to apply the concept of the ritual of passing and Victor Turner’s theory of liminality to a reading of Conrad’s novella.

    Opis:
    This article consists of excerpts from two chapters of Margreta Grigorova’s monograph entitled Joseph Conrad – the Creator as Seafarer. The titles of the chapters are: “The Captain and the Sea” and “Locating Heart of Darkness. A Journey to the Centre of Africa. The Belgian Congo in Conrad’s Works.” These chapters focus on the figure of the captain in Conrad’s works and on one of its particular manifestations in Heart of Darkness. The figure of the captain provides crucial insights into Conrad’s work. It shapes his narratives biographically and is at the core of their creative design. Conrad’s dream of captainship dominates both his real-life and creative quests. It is related both to the romantic heroism of sailing and to the sober responsibility and art of ship navigation. The triumph of this dream represents one of the force lines that draw Conrad’s readers to his works. The “heart” of “darkness” represents one of the emblematic topoi in his work. Confronting the empirical manifestations of “darkness” and its metaphysical significance is a salient feature of Conrad’s fiction, but it acquires its innermost and universal meaning in the eponymous novella, which demonstrates the culmination of his creative eloquence. It is a work that invites the critical reader to undergo a remarkable hermeneutic journey into a world which is under the gravity force of powerful insights and word gestures.

    Opis:
    The aim of this paper is to analyse the link between understanding another person and understanding the Self in Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness – a complex novella which raises a whole array of themes connected with human nature and the consequences of the lack of an established frame of reference. In a world where individual subjective consciousness appears to be not only the basic means of cognizance, but also the sole judge, Man is isolated from others and overwhelmed by the dark forces which seem to govern a hostile universe and also his own nature. The possibilities of arriving at any conclusive truths and achieving genuine communication with others are severely limited. However, the disquieting awareness of mortality, the darkness inherent in human nature, the apparent hostility of the universe, the dire lack of universal absolutes and the relativism and scepticism which result from all these circumstances do not in any way exempt us from the moral obligation to at least strive to fulfil the injunction “Know thyself!” – as it is self-delusion that Conrad abhors most of all. In order to overcome these difficulties and existential dilemmas, he proposes a set of simple principles concerning work, discipline, self-restraint, honour, solidarity and human interdependence, for it is usually because of others or in others that we realize the truth about our own nature.

    Heart of Darkness
    Opis:
    In contemporary visual culture, we may observe various transformations of Conrad’s Heart of Darkness. Artists adapt the classic tale to various media. The novella appears in a theatrical form on the Bulgarian and British stages (a performance by Museum Theatre directed by Valeriya Valcheva in Sofia and the production by the imitating the dog theatre company in London). In film, there is a sand-on-glass animation directed by Gerald Conn and the animeinfluenced Brazilian/French animated feature Heart of Darkness by Rogério Nunes. Additionally, there are video games (Spec Ops, Far Cry 2) based on its plot as well as numerous comics and graphic novels depicting the story, starting with the famous version by C. Anyango and D. Mairowitz through T. Tirabosco and Ch. Perrissin’s (Adamowicz-Pośpiech, 2024) and P. Kuper’s adaptations. On top of that, we have latest Instagram videos by Sascha Ciezata. In this paper, I argue that contemporary interpretations of Heart of Darkness to resonate with present-day audiences must inevitably modernize the novella formally and/or ideologically. I will substantiate this claim through an examination of two instances of the novella’s adaptation in distinct media: specifically, on Instagram and within the theatrical realm.
    We współczesnej kulturze wizualnej możemy zaobserwować różne transformacje noweli Jądro ciemności Josepha Conrada. Artyści adaptują tę klasyczną opowieść dla odmiennych mediów: nowela w formie teatralnej pojawia się na scenach bułgarskich i brytyjskich teatrów, w formie animacji piaskiem na szkle w reżyserii Geralda Conna lub brazylijsko-francuskiego filmu animowanego Heart of Darkness autorstwa Rogério Nunesa. Oprócz tego istnieją gry wideo (Spec Ops, Far Cry 2) oparte na jej fabule, a także liczne komiksy i powieści graficzne przedstawiające tę historię, począwszy od słynnej wersji C. Anyango i D. Mairowitza, poprzez T. Tirabosco i Ch. Perrissina i P. Kupera, a kończąc na najnowszych klipach na Instagramie autorstwa Saschy Ciezaty. W niniejszym artykule moim celem jest udowodnienie, że współczesne realizacje Jądra ciemności, które dążą do przekazania tekstu współczesnej publiczności, modernizują go formalnie i/lub ideologicznie. Tę tezę poprę analizą dwóch najnowszych przypadków adaptacji noweli w różnych mediach, a mianowicie na Instagramie i w teatrze.

    Opis:
    Since 1989 (the fall of Communism) the performing arts in Bulgaria have suffered a long process of transition dominated by a certain dialectic tension between the necessity to meet economic needs and the desire to open new venues for dramatic art. Against this background and contributing its own perceptive “reading” of Heart of Darkness to Conrad’s Bulgarian reception, on the eve of the vigorous celebration of his 160th anniversary in 2017, stage director Valeria Valcheva’s theatrical adaptation represents a remarkable debut rendition of Conrad’s fiction. The aim of this article is to explore how her idiosyncratic, creative, poetically recognizable approach lends a new form to Conrad’s recurrent relocation in modern and contemporary Bulgarian art.

    Opis:
    W studium usiłuję wykazać, jak w tekstualnym planie Jądra ciemności Josepha Conrada funkcjonuje tzw. polskoromantyczna intertekstualność. Nie rozstrzygając zarazem ostatecznie, czy kształtująca się relacja intertekstualna manifestuje się poprzez aluzje, czy poprzez reminiscencje, wyróżniam wiązkę prototypowych, polskoromantycznych intertekstów, które – jak uważam – mogą pozostawać kluczowe w procesie kontekstowej lektury dzieła Conrada. Są to z jednej strony dzieła Adama Mickiewicza – Pan Tadeusz, Ustęp III części Dziadów, Księgi narodu polskiego i pielgrzymstwa polskiego, z drugiej – niemniej funkcjonalne w wypadku Jądra ciemności – Anhelli Juliusza Słowackiego czy polska gawęda szlachecka – w rodzaju Pamiątek Soplicy Henryka Rzewuskiego. W porównaniu – bezpośrednio posługuję się metodą close reading, pośrednio zaś – wykorzystuję strategie widmontologicznego i palimpsestowego czytania tekstu literatury. Dyskutuję także z conradystycznym status quo, polemizując m.in. z ujęciem postaci arlekina obecnym w najklasyczniejszych, światowych odczytaniach Heart of Darkness: Škvorecký’ego, Burgessa, d’Avanza, Canaria i innych.
    In the study I attempt to demonstrate how so called Polish-Romantic intertextuality runs in the textual plan of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness. Without concluding ultimately whether the forming intertextual relation is manifested here through allusions or through reminiscences, I distinguish a bunch of prototypical, Polish-Romantic intertexts which, as I suppose, may remain crucial in the process of contextual reading of Conrad’s masterpiece. On the one hand, these are the works of Adam Mickiewicz – Pan Tadeusz, Forefathers’ Eve Part III, The Books and the Pilgrimage of the Polish Nation, on the other – still functional in the case of Heart of Darkness – Juliusz Słowacki’s Anhelli as well as Polish ‘gaweda szlachecka’ represented by Henryk Rzewuski’s Soplica’s Memoirs. In comparing – I use the close reading method directly, and indirectly – the strategies of the hauntology and palimpsest reading of the literature. I also discuss the conradists’ status quo – polemizing among others with the representation of the Harlequin’s motive present in the most classic world readings of Heart of Darkness: Škvorecký’s, Burgess’s, d’Avanza’s, Canaria’s and others.

    Opis:
    This article consists of two parts. The first part presents the main concepts and facts connected with the development of postcolonial studies as a relatively new academic discipline, while the second part discusses Conrad’s two ‘African’ works, which - containing as they do an implicit critique of colonialism and imperialism - are now seen as being one of the very first ‘postcolonial’ books. Over the last thirty years, postcolonial studies have not only gained the status of an academic discipline, but have become one of the main schools of literary criticism. The postcolonial approach is also critical towards those systems of presenting the world that have existed for decades and have thus come to be regarded as being natural; it undermines their position and shows that they are nothing but ideological discourses which have been created by world empires. To a great extent, postcolonial theory has relied on existing theories for its methodology and terminology. On the one hand it relies on Marxism, while on the other it leans towards poststructuralism and postmodernism. Postcolonial theory also participates in discussions concerning the position of the Other (Spivak). As well as outlining the framework of postcolonial theory, it is important that we define such terms as ‘colonial’ and ‘postcolonial’ literature. In her book entitled Colonial and Postcolonial Fiction (1995), Elleke Boehmer suggests limiting the field of research in order to concentrate on the modern colonial empires that have emerged over the last four or five centuries, laying particular emphasis on the British Empire, as it was here that the greatest textualization of the idea of colonial expansion took place. The terms ‘colonial’ and ‘post-colonial’ are understood differently in The Empire Writes Back (1989), whose authors (Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin) suggest that the the term ‘post-colonial’ should refer to all cultures affected by imperial expansion - from the beginnings of colonization to the present day - arguing that the expansion of colonial empires in previous centuries exerted a considerable influence on historical processes that have lasted down to our own times. Because these definitions of post(-)colonial literature do not encompass such phenomena as the literatures of multicultural metropolies or literatures going beyond the realm of the English language or beyond the literature of British or French colonialism, critics now often prefer to use expressions such as ‘literature in English’, ‘French-language literature’ or ‘literature of the Caribbean’ (which indicate the language or the region where a given type of literature has emerged) instead of the term ‘postcolonial literature’. Most contemporary scholars see Conrad as being one of the first postcolonial writers - someone who criticized the ruthless colonial expansion of European empires and the concept of the “White Man’s Burden”. The works which attract particular attention are, of course, those which relate to Conrad’s African experience: An Outpost of Progress and the excellent, albeit overexploited novella Heart of Darkness, which - despite its having been mentioned and referred to so many times by postcolonial critics - still evokes a great deal of controversy. In 1975 the Nigerian writer Chinua Achebe famously declared Joseph Conrad to be “a bloody racist”. Since the publication of Achebe’s An image of Africa many scholars have defended the position of Conrad as one of the chief opponents of colonialism, stressing the fictitious nature of Heart of Darkness, its experimental narration and its metaphorical and symbolic character. This controversy has by no means been laid to rest.

    Opis:
    The similarities between the works of Alexander Fredro and Joseph Conrad beg the question of the extent to which a comparative interpretation can be made. However, before this question can be answered, we must first redefine the concept of the comic for the purpose of making such a comparison. The aim of this article is to show both authors in a new light as (unwitting?) deconstructors of the traditional concept of the comic (which for Fredro was still associated with that of Molière) and as creators of a new, existential concept of the comic that is tied up with human existence and that can be understood as being heightened by the tragic. An excellent example of this is provided by Fredro’s memoirs of the Napoleonic campaign entitled Trzy po trzy (Tittle-Tattle), which – thanks to the testimony of Aniela Zagórska – we know Conrad read in 1922. The manner of Fredro’s narration – which he himself likens to playing with a shuttlecock – in time proves to be that of a particular literary commemoration, i.e. bearing witness. Identified thus as a component of human existence, the comic serves to provide an escape from the “trauma of death”. A similar evolution can be traced in the style of Marlow’s narration in Conrad’s Youth and Heart of Darkness. Like the narrator of Fredro’s memoirs, Marlow makes the transition from “feat” to “testimony”.

    Opis:
    Chinua Achebe, author of Things Fall Apart, states in an interview that Joseph Conrad ensconces racism in his adjective-ridden writing style. More than that, Achebe even states that Conrad intentionally tries to confuse his readers so that they do not detect his racism. Arguments of intention are dangerous, especially when the author that is subjected to one is deceased. They cannot defend themselves. In order to see if Achebe’s claim of hidden racism in Heart of Darkness is true or not, I have read two other works by Conrad, The Secret Sharer and The Shadow Line: A Confession, and compared their writing. Using more analyses of Conrad’s works, I discover that Conrad is not too confusing for his readers; most people understand him. However, I notice that Heart of Darkness is written in a more confusing style. Adding Conrad’s philosophy and reviewing it with Nietzsche’s philosophy, we see that Conrad doesn’t seem like someone who would try to be racist and then hide it. The argument of intention would also seem to have an air of arrogance, as it appears Achebe thinks other readers are unable to comprehend Conrad’s text the way he can, or at least without his guidance. In conclusion, I surmise that arguments of intention are dangerous and that no one should make them because they are largely insupportable. If anything, an argument of intention has all the qualities of prejudice and once investigated, seems just as absurd as arguments for racism.

    Opis:
    It would appear that Czesław Miłosz’s Treatise on Morality - one of whose aims was to “stave off despair” - was largely inspired by the writings of Joseph Conrad. That Miłosz had no wish to draw his readers’ attention to this is perfectly understandable, given Conrad’s particularly low standing in the eyes of communist State censors. This long poem, which extols human freedom and pours scorn on socialist realism (together with its ideological premises), is one of Miłosz’s best known works in his native Poland, where it was published in 1948. The Treatise on Morality may well have been inspired by three of Conrad’s essays that were banned in communist Poland: Autocracy and War, A Note on the Polish Problem and The Crime of Partition. Conrad’s writings would appear to have helped Miłosz to diagnose Poland’s political predicament from a historical perspective and to look for a way out of it without losing all hope. An analysis of the Treatise on Morality shows that only by reconstructing the Conradian atmosphere and context - alluded to in the text - can we fully grasp all the levels of the poet’s irony, which culminates in a final “punchline” alluding to Heart of Darkness. Apart from suggestive allusions to the brutal colonization of the Congo, the fate of post-war Poland is also seen through the optic of those of Conrad’s novels that deal with the subject of depraved revolutionaries: Nostromo, The Secret Agent and Under Western Eyes. Conrad’s ideas for ways to fight against bad fortune and despair are suggested not only by his stories Youth and Typhoon - and by his novels The Nigger of the “Narcissus” and Lord Jim - but also and above all by his volume of memoirs entitled A Personal Record, in which he relates his yearning for freedom as the young, tragic victim of a foreign empire. In an article entitled Joseph Conrad in Polish Eyes and published in 1957 - on the hundredth anniversary of Conrad’s birth - Miłosz writes that, through his writings, Conrad fulfilled the hopes of his father (who gave him the name “Konrad”) and that although “the son did not want to assume a burden that had crushed his father, he had nevertheless become the defender of freedom against the blights of autocracy.”

    Opis:
    In an essay entitled Conrad’s Stereotypes – published in 1957 – Miłosz sees Conrad as “the typical old Polish nobleman who remained faithful to the way in which he had lived and thought as a young man.” Miłosz speaks of his own affinity with Conrad (and Mickiewicz), explaining that it derives from a set of shared emotional and historical experiences that were deeply ingrained in the minds of the inhabitants of the ‘Eastern Borderlands’of the old Polish-Lithuanian-Ruthenian Commonwealth. This ‘Eastern Borderlands’ cultural identity may well have enabled Conrad to give an authentic portrayal of the Russian characters in Under Western Eyes. The counterpart to Mickiewicz’s and Conrad’s condemnation of autocracy and the fairness of their attitude towards Russians was Miłosz’s willingness to maintain friendly relations with contemporary Russian ‘dissidents’ who had stood up against the oppressive political system of the Soviet Union. Surprisingly, however, he does not draw any parallels between the Polish stereotype of Russia and the portrayal of Russia which is to be found in Russian political literature. Miłosz concludes by observing that in Under Western Eyes it was only through the purely artistic merits of his writing that Conrad could have hoped to win over his English-speaking readers, while at the same time remaining “faithful to a tradition that would have seemed exotic to anyone living in another country” – and for this achievement he deserves praise.
