The Strange Short Fiction of Joseph Conrad - Writing, Culture, and Subjectivity (Hardcover)

Through an examination of short stories spanning Conrad's entire writing career, Daphna Erdinast-Vulcan engages with the question of authorial subjectivity and ethics in Modernism in general, and in Conrad's short fiction in particular. Part One of the study, inspired by Derrida and the early philosophical writings of M. M. Bakhtin, establishes an original theoretical matrix, which turns on the principle of 'heterobiography'. Part Two applies this cultural-historical perspective through close readings of ten short stories, linking Conrad's essentially Romantic sensibility and his unique position on the threshold of Modernism with some of the philosophical issues that have emerged from the 'Postmodern turn'.
