Krátky popis
‘Who could tell what forms, what visions, what faces, what
forgiveness he could see in the glow of the west!’ Jim is a
well-bred young romantic who takes to the seas with hopes of
adventure and the aspiration to prove his mettle. When the boat he
sails in threatens to sink, Jim abandons ship in fear in order to
save himself, leaving the other passengers to their fate. However,
the ship does not sink and guilt-ridden Jim admits to the maritime
court of inquiry that he deserted the boat and is consequently
stripped of his sailing papers. Blighted by his own cowardice,
Jim’s subsequent self-exile to a remote Malaysian trading post
gives Conrad the opportunity to explore the question of moral
identity and through his hero, he embodies the values and
deterioration of the declining empire of late Victorian Britain.
With its rich descriptions of an unknown, exotic world and
beautifully constructed prose, Lord Jim is considered one of
Conrad’s greatest works.&,nbsp,
