A multidisciplinary and international collection of essays, this volume contains contributions by writers from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Sweden, and South Africa. They employ a variety of methodological approaches, from detailed archival schoarship to theoretical perspectives on textuality and discursivity. Topics include the development of narrative voice in "Heart of Darkness"; the relationship between fictionality and missionary discourse; the notion of race in Conrad's work; and "Heart of Darkness" in contemporary classroom practice in European and South African contexts.
