This collection, part of the series Conrad: Eastern and Western Perspectives, examines the literary, cultural and linguistic significance of Joseph Conrad's Polish background. Essays address such issues as Conrad's knowledge and use of the Polish literary canon, his politics, the role of the Polish courtly tradition in his fiction, his representation of women, the impact of Polish grammar on Conrad's English style, and the influence of his works on 20th-century Polish artists such as Andrzej Wajda and Czeslaw Milosz.
