Tracing the Aesthetic Principle in Conrad s Novels sets out to
revolutionize our reading of Joseph Conrad s works and challenge
the critical heritage that accompanies them. Levin identifies the
emergence of an aesthetic principle in Conrad s novels and
theorizes that principle through the concept of the otherwise
present, which Levin defines as that which provokes desire and
perpetuates it by barring its appeasement. This book offers a
detailed analysis of Lord Jim, Nostromo, Under Western Eyes, The
Arrow of Gold and Suspense, alongside a poststructuralist-inspired
explication of Conrad s literary vision and its defining principle.
This study is an important source for both the newcomers and the
initiated to Conrad s oeuvre.
