Conrad's Narrative Method (Clarendon Paperbacks) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This is the first full-length study to apply recent developments in critical theory and practice to the whole canon of Conrad's works. Using a structuralist approach, the book analyzes the author's sophisticated narrative method, focusing on its devices, functions, variations, and thematic implications. Lothe demonstrates that the narrative method is an integral aspect of textual structure, and discusses the methods of major post-structuralist critics such as Edward W. Said and J. Hillis Miller as they apply to the body of Conrad's work. By means of a critical methodology that can be applied to the various interpretations of Conrad's works, this book makes a a significant contribution to Conrad studies, as well as to the study of narrative.
