About this book
In the late 19th century, as imperial ambitions surged, Joseph Conrad's "Jeunesse, suivi du Cœur des ténèbres" delves into the complexities of human experience against the backdrop of colonial exploration. This collection features two pivotal narratives: "Jeunesse," which captures the fervor and naïveté of youth, and "Cœur des ténèbres," a haunting exploration of civilization's darkness. Through Marlow's journey, Conrad illuminates the stark contrasts between innocence and the harsh realities of existence. Ideal for students and historians alike, this work invites readers to reflect on the moral dilemmas of adventure and the psychological toll of imperialism. Engage with Conrad's profound insights into the human condition and the shadows that linger in the pursuit of ambition.
