Racism in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page essay that discusses racism within Joseph Conrad’s 1903 novel Heart of Darkness, which is generally acknowledged as a literary classic due to the insight that Conrad provides into the human psyche. In many ways, Conrad foreshadowed the atrocities committed in the twentieth century by offering an explanation for Kurtz’s descent into barbarity. This aspect of the novel is undisputed by scholarship. However, there is debate concerning whether or not Conrad’s text is racist in the manner in which Conrad makes this point. Citing Chinua Achebe, the writer discusses this debate, siding with Achebe. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Racism in Joseph Conrad’s “Heart of Darkness”
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing racism in Conrad’s “Heart of Darkness”. Joseph Conrad’s novella “Heart of Darkness” (1901) is highly controversial in regards to its racist perspective towards the African native. Although “darkness” within the story is also used to describe the darkness within all men and societies, even those within England and Europe, overall Conrad, through the character of Marlow whose background is very much like his own, shows the racist perspective which was generally accepted at the time in that Africans were considered “prehistoric”, “frenzied” and the environment in which they lived appeared “unearthly” and at times the natives appeared to be nearly “inhuman” in their differences and contrasts to the white man. Europeans, on the other hand, while they may have apparent elements of darkness within, are described in terms of purity, fairness, orderliness, and are civilized and those who, including Conrad, can only appreciate the African native in his own environment but in no means could extend that appreciation beyond that in comparison with Europeans and European society; a racist attitude which was reflected by Conrad within the story. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Racism, "Huck Finn," and "Pudd'nhead Wilson"
[ send me this essay ]
A 20 page paper looking at the historical identity of American blacks between 1850-1900 as related to the racial theories of the time, and in the context of Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" and "The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson." The paper points out that Twain was a white man who wrote of racism, but he was not a racist author. Rather, Twain recognized that blacks of the late nineteenth century faced challenges just as great as those they faced under slavery: denigration at the hands of white society, and their own lack of self-esteem. Bibliography lists nine sources.

Radical Innocence: Rebel Depiction
[ send me this essay ]
This 7 page paper argues that in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, the protagonist's character includes aspects that deny him the status of hero, but allow him the stature associated with martyrdom. In both Ellison's Invisible Man and Faulkner's Light In August, the social limitations (and brutalities) of race form the basis for the protagonist's journey to an acceptance of self over the acceptance of society. These three stories are analyzed in terms of Ihab Hassan's book, Radical Innocence. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
