Point of View and Theme in Heart of Darkness

The views and themes of the dark center of Joseph Conrad's novel "The Heart of Darkness", the story of British Marlowe flowing through an unnamed river in Africa, the possibility of entering humanity psychologically, are related to the reader I will. The first-person narrator of the protagonist is a British yawning called "Nelly", telling the story Mahlow told him. There are some examples of Marlow's story when Marlow depends on others such as Russia, brickworkers, central station chief to get information.

There are many similarities to them, but these novels differ in several ways. The first is an overall perspective. The heart of the darkness is from the viewpoint of European sailor Marlow, Marlow has many attitudes in his country. This shows what we feel to local people in this story. On the other hand, the collapse of things is from the perspective of locals, which makes us look very different about the times and the influence of white settlers. This also means that Things Fall Apart will have a big impact on locals. And in a dark place it looks like a Marlow trip.

First, Heart of Darkness explores the themes of colonialism and imperialism. This novel was made in the late nineteenth century and the main character Marlow was heading from the outside station along the Congo River toward the inside station - a journey of the image of the cruel and tortured white's dominant territory. . On this journey, on another level, Marlow can see as a journey of philosophy that casts doubt on his own Kurtz, and in a larger view a doubt on the Western Europe / Europe / White 'civilization' itself. The dark heart, whether civilization, imperialism or human existence, is exploring the depth of the darkest. Conrad is exposing the hypocrisy of the central viewpoint of Europe as cruel and "dark" as Western European countries see the third world region and people. Just like Kurzu in this book, recognition is deceiving, fear of realization hurts.
