Text of Note

Along with an authoritative text of Heart of Darkness, this volume presents critical essays, selected or prepared especially for students, that approach the work from several contemporary critical perspectives, such as gender criticism and cultural studies. Each essay is accompanied by an introduction (with bibliography) to the history, principles, and practice of its critical perspective. The book also surveys the biographical, historical, and critical contexts of the literary work and concludes with a glossary of critical terms.
