ESSAY ON: Imperialism/Gulliver & Heart of Darkness

Number of Pages 4

This research paper: A 4 page essay-- Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels (1726) and Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness (1902), while very different in style and substance, are novels that address the corrupting influence of imperialism. Swift frames his observations within the context of fantasy and Conrad pictures the graphic reality of the Belgium Congo; however, each author makes the point that the rationalizations of Europeans justifying colonialism are false and that imperialism is dehumanizing and cruel. No additional sources cited.
