Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - For one hundred years, Heart of Darkness has been among the most widely read and taught novels in the English language. Hailed as an incisive indictment of European imperialism in Africa upon its publication in 1899, more recently it has been repeatedly denounced as racist and imperialist. Peter Firchow counters these claims, and his carefully argued response allows the charges of Conrad's alleged bias to be evaluated as objectively as possible. He begins by contrasting the meanings of race, racism, and imperialism in Conrad's day to those of our own time. Firchow then argues that Heart of Darkness is a novel rather than a sociological treatise; only in relation to its aesthetic significance can real social and intellectual-historical meaning be established. Envisioning Africa responds in detail to negative interpretations of the novel by revealing what they distort, misconstrue, or fail to take into account. Firchow uses a framework of imagology to examine how national, ethnic, and racial images are portrayed in the text, differentiating the idea of a national stereotype from that of national character. He believes that what Conrad saw personally in Africa should not be confused with the Africa he describes in the novel; Heart of Darkness is instead an envisioning and a revisioning of Conrad's experiences in the medium of fiction.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - While tracing the development of fiction in the writing of modern utopias, the author seeks to demonstrate in specific ways how those utopias have become increasingly literary. After an introductory discussion of how we understand - and how we should understand - modern utopian fictions, the book provides several examples of the ways in which those understandings affect our appreciation of utopian fiction. There are chapters on H. G. Wells' ''Time Machine''; Bernard Shaw's ''Major Barbara''; Aldous Huxley's ''Brave New World''; George Orwell's ''Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four''; William Golding's ''Lord of the Flies''; and, Iris Murdoch's ''The Bell''. 'This book will inspire readers to devote more time to this literature, and it will be invaluable to those designing courses on utopian fiction. Highly recommended' - ''Choice''. …
