Includes a collection of nineteen papers covering Conrad's writing career, beginning with "Almayer's Folly" and concluding with "The Rescue". This volume discusses a range of issues in the Conrad canon, including ethics, politics, and imperialism. It also consists of comparative studies linking Conrad with other English authors, including Milton.

Conrad's relationship to Poland - the evolution of his attitude toward his homeland, the influence of Polish literature on his work, his reception by Polish audiences - and to Russian literature, particularly Dostoevsky and Turgenev, is discussed in fourteen papers written by scholars from the United States, Europe and beyond.
