Produktbeschreibung

A hundred years after his death, the life and legacy of the Polish-British novelist Joseph Conrad remains deeply felt in a wide range of global cultural contexts. The Resonance of Joseph Conrad in Contemporary Culture brings together scholars of wide-ranging backgrounds to provide a holistic assessment of the afterlife of Conrad's work. Ranging from Conrad's influence upon contemporary writers, to the impact of his translators and his adaptation within film and graphic novels, this volume illuminates how Conrad's approach to questions of moral ambiguity and the haunting complexities of colonialism continues to inform the cultural output of our modern, globalized world.
