Giới thiệu tác giả
Joseph Conrad, born Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski on December 3, 1857, in Berdychiv, Ukraine, then part of the Russian Empire, is a literary figure of immense importance and influence. Conrad's writing career spans the late Victorian and early modernist eras, with a unique style that reflects his multicultural and multilingual upbringing. An English writer of Polish descent, Conrad's voyages as a merchant marine deeply shaped his worldview and narrative style, often reflecting themes of sea adventure, personal depth, and critique of imperialism. Despite English being his third language, Conrad's mastery is evident in works such as 'Heart of Darkness' (Unabridged Deluxe Edition), which explores the harrowing journey into the African Congo and the psychological depths of the human condition. This novella has been scrutinized for its portrayal of colonialism and the complexities of human nature. Conrad's narrative techniques, including non-linear storytelling and framed narratives, along with his rich prose, position him as a pivotal figure in shaping 20th-century literature. He authored numerous novels and stories, notable among them are 'Lord Jim,' 'The Secret Agent,' and 'Nostromo,' all of which seal his reputation for psychologically complex and morally ambiguous writing. Conrad's influence extends beyond literature into the realm of cinematography and cultural studies, making him an enduring subject of scholarly interest. He died on August 3, 1924, but his works continue to be read, discussed, and analyzed to this day.
