So He separated light and dark. However‚ in Heart of Darkness‚ light is not associated with goodness‚ but symbolizes the deceptiveness of the Europeans entering Africa. The darkness is associated with the ignorance of the natives. Conrad uses the contrasting symbols of light and dark to convey the theme of imperialism

    HEART OF DARKNESS Conrad’s works‚ Heart of Darkness in particular‚ provide a bridge between Victorian values and the ideals of modernism. Like their Victorian predecessors‚ these novels rely on traditional ideas of heroism‚ which are nevertheless under constant attack in a changing world and in places far from England. Women occupy traditional roles as arbiters of domesticity and morality‚ yet they are almost never present in the narrative; instead‚ the concepts of “home” and “civilization” exist

    Darkness Heart of Darkness contains two layers of narration. The outer narrator is a passenger on the pleasure ship The Nellie‚ who hears Marlow recount one of his "inconclusive experiences" (21) as a riverboat captain in Africa. This unnamed narrator speaks for not only himself‚ but also the four other men who listen to Marlow’s story.
