Abstract

    Since the publication of Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, it has achieved great popularity among readers and got too much attention from numerous scholars. This thesis holds that Heart of Darkness is filled with rich color of humanism and strong inclination of anti-colonialism. Through Marlow’s narration, Conrad reveals the hypocrisy and greed of European colonizers and expresses his strong criticism to their cruelty and evil acts. Conrad describes the native blacks’ miserable lives under colonizers’ oppression and satirizes their hypocrisy, which tells us Conrad’s conspicuous anti-colonial thought. In this thesis, I will analyze the images of the dark Africa and the oppressed blacks, study the hypocritical and evil images of European colonizers intensively and look into Conrad’s anti-colonial thought in Heart of Darkness.

Keywords  anti-colonialism,Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness

1  Introduction
1.1  Conrad and Heart of Darkness
    Joseph Conrad is a polish-born English novelist who is considered to be one of the greatest modern English writers. His mother tongue is not English but in F.R. Leavis’s The Great Tradition, he is ranked among the top four greatest English novelists. Conrad was born in Poland and exiled from his own country with his parents. At eight, His mother died owing to the harsh conditions of exile. After his mother’s death, he lived with his father until his father’s death. In 1872, an idea that he wanted to go to the sea struck this young boy. Then regardless of all relatives’ objections, in 1874, he traveled to Marseilles and became a seaman. During his seaman’s career, he sailed to many places of the world which made a great difference to his life and his writing career. In 1895, he published his first novel Almayer’s Folly. Then he published many great novels during 1897-1911, including The nigger of the Narcissus (1897), Heart of Darkness (1898), Nostromo (1904), The secret Agent (1907),etc.
