الملخص

      الهدف الأساسي من هذه الدراسة هو تقديم تفسير ما بعد الاستعمار للشخصيات النسائية في رواية جوزيف كونراد المختارة. جوزيف كونراد هو أحد الكتاب البارزين الذي كرس أدبه لتصوير آفاق التفاعل الاجتماعي بين المستعمر والمستعمر. غالبية شخصيات كونراد من الذكور ، في حين أن الشخصيات النسائية في رواياته إما كشخصيات ثانوية عشوائية أو كائنات خاضعة وسلبية. تركز هذه الورقة على الشخصيات النسائية ، سواء البيضاء أو الأصلية ، في قلب الظلام لكونراد. ليس هناك شك في ذهن مارلو بأن النساء يجب أن يركزن على مسؤولياتهن ويتجنبن قضايا الرجال ، لأنهن يجب أن يظلن مضللات وغافلات عن الظلم في هذا العالم. يتضح هذا من الطريقة التي يتحدث بها ويعامل النساء البيض في جميع أنحاء الرواية. هو يعتقد أنه يمكن ضمان سلامة المجتمع إذا تم عزل النساء في عالمهن الخاص.
