BOOK EXCERPT:
Joseph Conrad is one of the great figures in the tradition of the novel. This clear and well-written study provides a critically-informed introduction to Conrad and his work, placing him in his political, social and literary context, and examining his relationship to Modernism, England and Empire. Organised thematically - broaching the leading themes of race, the sea and nationalism - Allan H. Simmons covers the range of Conrad's fiction, from the early Malay novels, through such key works as Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, Nostromo, The Secret Agent and Under Western Eyes, to his later novels. First-time readers of Conrad are provided with in-depth contexts for appreciating a writer whose work is often challenging, while readers already familiar with Conrad's fiction will find new perspectives with which to view it. Approachable and authoritative, this introductory guide is essential for anyone with an interest in a master of twentieth-century fiction whose work variously altered the English and European literary landscape.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Werner Senn’s Conrad’s Narrative Voice draws on the methodology of linguistic stylistics and the analysis of narrative discourse to discuss Joseph Conrad’s perception of the role and the limitations of language. Tracing recurrent linguistic patterns allows Senn to demonstrate that Conrad’s view of the radical indeterminacy of the world is conveyed on the most basic levels of the author’s (often criticised) verbal style but permeates his work at all levels of the narrative. Detailed stylistic analysis also reveals the importance, to Conrad, of the spoken word, of oral communication. Senn argues that the narrators’ compulsive efforts to make their readers see and understand reflect Conrad’s ethics of human solidarity in a world he depicts as hostile, enigmatic and often senseless.

BOOK EXCERPT:
In 'The Complete Novels of Joseph Conrad - All 20 Works in One Premium Edition', readers are presented with a comprehensive collection of Conrad's influential works that delve into themes of colonialism, human nature, and the darkness of the human soul. Conrad's literary style is characterized by intricate narratives and vivid descriptions that transport readers to exotic locales and explore the complexities of the human experience. His novels, including 'Heart of Darkness' and 'Lord Jim', are regarded as classics of English literature and continue to be studied for their profound insights into the human condition. Conrad's ability to blend psychological depth with suspenseful storytelling sets him apart as a master of modern fiction. Joseph Conrad, a Polish-British writer, drew inspiration for his novels from his experiences as a sailor in the British merchant navy, which allowed him to witness firsthand the effects of imperialism and the clash of cultures. His background as a mariner enriches his writing with authenticity and adds layers of complexity to his narratives. Conrad's unique perspective and introspective approach to storytelling have solidified his reputation as one of the greatest writers in English literature. I highly recommend 'The Complete Novels of Joseph Conrad' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the depths of the human psyche. Conrad's timeless works offer a window into the complexities of human nature and provide a captivating reading experience that will resonate with those who enjoy richly crafted narratives and profound philosophical insights.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Few historians have argued so forcefully or persuasively as Bernard S. Bachrach for the study of warfare as not only worthy of scholarly attention, but demanding of it. In his many publications Bachrach has established unequivocally the relevance of military institutions and activity for an understanding of medieval European societies, polities, and mentalities. In so doing, as much as any scholar of his generation, he has helped to define the status quaestionis for the field of medieval military history. The Medieval Way of War: Studies in Medieval Military History in Honor of Bernard S. Bachrach pays tribute to its honoree by gathering in a single volume seventeen original studies from an international roster of leading experts in the military history of medieval Europe. Ranging chronologically from Late Antiquity through the Later Middle Ages (ca. AD 300-1500), and with a broad geographical scope stretching from the British Isles to the Middle East, these diverse studies address an array of critical themes and debates relevant to the conduct of war in medieval Europe. These themes include the formation and implementation of military grand strategies; the fiscal, material, and administrative resources that underpinned the conduct of war in medieval Europe; and religious, legal, and artistic responses to military violence. Collectively, these seventeen studies embrace the interdisciplinarity and topical diversity intrinsic to Bachrach’s research. Additionally, they strongly echo his conviction that the study of armed conflict is indispensable for an accurate and comprehensive understanding of medieval European history.
