以下引述自Theme区
Darkness
Darkness is important enough conceptually to be part of the book’s title.
However, it is difficult to discern exactly what it might mean, given that
absolutely everything in the book is cloaked in darkness. Africa, England,
and Brussels are all described as gloomy and somehow dark, even if the sun is
shining brightly. Darkness thus seems to operate metaphorically and
existentially rather than specifically. Darkness is the inability to see:
this may sound simple, but as a description of the human condition it has
profound implications.
Failing to see another human being means failing to
understand that individual and failing to establish any sort of sympathetic
communion with him or her.
个人是觉得 作者想要藉由非洲内地 丛林遍布 蛮荒遍野的夜晚(大部分时间都是晚上为止)
再加上Kurtz寻找心灵上意义的存在 对比出欧洲社会往外地寻找奴隶来源
并以物质享受的生活为主的空虚 当然 还有为殖民地所打的战争
讲的有点乱 但大致上就是两者的对比
