  • Introduction
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-19192-0 - The Selected Letters of Joseph Conrad Edited by: Laurence Davies Excerpt More information INTRODUCTION i Biography frequently relies on diaries and letters, but because few let- ters and no diaries from Joseph Conrad’s first thirty years have sur- vived, reliance goes the other way.1 Even if we had more documents written in his hand, a life as remarkable as his, involving two vocations, several languages, and many polities, needs a fuller introduction than the brief chronologies that begin each section of this volume. All the same, readers well acquainted with his history may care to skip this opening section. Conrad’s story is one both of steadfastness and circumstance. His parents and most of his extended family were devoted to the restora- tion of Polish independence, lost in the partitions of 1782, 1793, and 1795 as Russia, Prussia, and Austria divided up the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth among themselves. He grew up carrying a burden of sacrificial duty, an imperative he admired for its demands on courage and tenacity but, in his life as exile, sailor, author, could never follow absolutely. As he told his close friend Cunninghame Graham, who was mourning the loss of his wife, ‘Living with memories is a cruel business. I – who have a double life one of them peopled only by shadows grow- ing more precious as the years pass – know what that is’ (7 October 1907). He had become a British subject on 19 August 1886, at the age of 29, not only as a practical necessity but as a demonstration of loyalty to a nation whose institutions he admired and whose merchant navy had afforded him a career.

  • Stephen Crane, Edward Garnett and Henry Lawson
    The Painters of Modern Life: Stephen Crane, Edward Garnett and Henry Lawson LINDSAY BARRETT University of Western Sydney The first time I saw the painting The Flax Weavers by the Berlin impressionist Max Liebermann, in the Alte Nationale Galerie in Berlin, I had the strange feeling that, somehow, I was already familiar with it; that in a sense, I had seen it before. The Flax Weavers was painted in 1887 and depicts a group of women in a wooden workshop space weaving together long plats of flax, a plant that was an indispensable component of rope and canvas making during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Flax grew in vast swathes on the Baltic coast north of Berlin, and the harvesting and the fabrication of it into important military and commercial items was a mainstay of the area’s economy. Max Liebermann, native to the area, became best known for his calm impressionist meditations on the gardens around his villa by the shores of a lake near the Prussian capital, but like a number of other Berlin artists of the time, he also shared a concern with the everyday realism of working class life, even if his depictions of this life found impressionist, rather than harder-edged realist form. Liebermann’s flax-weavers mostly inhabit the right-hand foreground of the painting, pulling their strands of grass across the surface of the image from the left hand side, the background details of the workshop triangulating away from the human forms as per the established rules of visual perspective that dominated European image-making at the time.

  • Early Conrad Commentary
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-03485-3 - Joseph Conrad's Critical Reception John G. Peters Excerpt More information Chapter 1 Early Conrad Commentary CritiCism till 1930 This first period of Conrad commentary was dominated by two critical traditions: biographical/historical criticism and belles lettres criticism. Reviewers and other commentators particularly relate Conrad’s litera- ture to his unique personal experiences and often compare him to con- temporaneous writers of sea fiction such as Louis Becke, Frank Bullen, W. W. Jacobs, and Pierre Loti, and to such writers of adventure fiction as Alexandre Dumas and Robert Louis Stevenson. Early on, critics rec- ognized aspects of Conrad’s works that would become consistent points of interest, particularly his style, atmosphere, characterization, narra- tive methodology, descriptive abilities, and psychological investigations. Before the first book on Conrad appeared in 1914, commentary was lim- ited to the many reviews of individual works and the small number of articles that considered his biography or overall writing career. Although all of these are of historical interest (as the few general commentaries on Conrad of that time), only a small number were truly insightful. Conrad commentary began with the first review of Almayer’s Folly, which appeared in The Scotsman on April 29, 1895, the day the book was published. In “New Novels,” the anonymous reviewer calls the book “remarkable” and praises Conrad’s descriptive powers and the unity of effect that colors the book with pathos. This review, in its apprecia- tion of Conrad’s abilities, resembles so many others to appear during his career. The first article on Conrad’s works, however, is an unsigned 1896 column in The Bookman, “New Writers: Mr.

    Chapter 5 D. H. Lawrence: ‘Russia Will Certainly Inherit the Future’ D. H. Lawrence has always provoked strong and divisive reactions among his critics, his censors and his readers, being often dismissed for celebrating sexuality and rejoicing in the lubricious moments abundantly present in his works. Boldly innovative, deeply sensual and radically experimental, he was surprisingly prone to the whims of literary fashion; but, in distinction to the majority of the modernist oeuvre associated primarily with the high- brow aestheticism of the elite, his works did have a broader cultural impact on the readership of the time, being listed among the top literary bestsell- ers and the best examples of fiction written during the inter-war decades.1 Lawrence never went to Russia, though his intention to make a trip to the country was persistently mentioned in his personal correspondence.2 Just like almost the entire artistic world of the pre-World War I era, he was greatly affected by the vogue of Russomania: by the spellbinding otherness of the Russian novels and the glamour of Diaghilev’s Paris and London seasons. These memorable shows found their most vivid representation in the pages of Women in Love (1920): A servant came, and soon reappeared with armfuls of silk robes and shawls and scarves, mostly Oriental, things that Hermione, with her love for beautiful extravagant dress, had collected gradually […] It was finally decided to do Naomi and Ruth and 1 Jane Bingham, Popular Culture: 1920–1939 (London: Raintree, 2013), p. 36, 56. 2 See, for instance, letters to Samuel Koteliansky (1 May 1917, 6 December, 18 December 1925, 11 January 1926); to Catherine Carswell (17 December 1922); and to Carl Seelig (7 January 1926); D.

    A DESCRIPTIVE LOCATION REGISTER OF JOSEPH CONRAD’S LITERARY MANUSCRIPTS Compiled by Gene M. Moore Universiteit van Amsterdam (last updated: March 2016) INTRODUCTION “For the textual scholar preparing a critical edition and for those interested in learning more about Conrad’s compositional methods and shaping imagination, the discovery of autograph and typewritten manu- scripts and other early draft versions is of the utmost importance.” With these words Gordon Lindstrand opened his “Bibliographical Survey of the Literary Manuscripts of Joseph Conrad,” which appeared in three consecutive numbers of the second volume of Conradiana in 1969-70. Lindstrand compiled his survey as a first step towards what he hoped would eventually become a virtually complete and reliable record of the current disposition of all documents relating to the production or revision of Conrad’s literary works. This new Register is meant as a second step, supplementing Lindstrand’s findings with additional infor- mation on proofs and other materials relevant to the pre-publication history of Conrad’s works, and tracing where possible the provenance of the surviving documents. Conrad’s early drafts and working papers would have gone straight from his hands into the fire had it not been for his wife, Jessie Conrad, who tucked them away in the deep and “sacred” drawers of an old yellow press. In 1911, once Agnes Tobin had introduced him to the New York laywer and collector John Quinn, Conrad realized that his manu- scripts and typescripts could provide a badly needed supplement to his literary earnings. Still, he found it difficult to believe in the value of his own superseded scribblings, especially those in incomplete or “unclean” or typed form: fragments of “Heart of Darkness,” Lord Jim, and Nostromo were sold for £100, and substantial typescripts for as little as £5.
