Help with The Story Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad?
I need help with this question regarding the story , Heart of Darkness.
I don’t understand that story D=
1.Different settings. Consider how Kurtz and the pilgrims act differently in the following settings.
·Belgium
·The Congo
·On the steamer
any help would be appreciated.
They acted different Not Only because the people were different, but because there were different standards of living. In Belgium people’s main priorities were marrying the richest man and having the most beautiful dress. This is in complete contrast to the people and priorities in the Congo and on the steamer. They’re worried about more basic things like food, and surviving people shooting arrows at them and navigating their steamer safely to shore. Another thing that’s different is Conrad’s usage of contrast between the native people and the Belgians. Natives were considered uncivilized and less knowledgeable, and this is also shown in the fact that some of the natives were carnivores. This is not to say that many natives during this time were not carnivores, but I think Conrad uses it to help show the contrast between the natives and the Belgians.
