A Feminist Criticism to Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness
Abstract
Conrad’s Heart of Darkness has been studied from various points of view by scholars. However; the approach to woman has not been focused to a desired extent. It is evident that the existence of woman has been kept in the background in Heart of Darkness purposefully. Despite all unfavourable approach, this paper aims to reveal the importance of women characters in the novel. This study claims that woman characters’ contribution to Heart of Darkness is much more than the supposed. The success of the novel depends on women to a large extent.
