Power Structure in Heart of Darkness Chang Hyun Kim (Dongeui University) This essay attempts to define the entity that colonizes, the entity that is exploited, the witness and in this case also an exhibitor, the various characters within the novella, the receiver or reader, and the critics that evaluate, all affect each other in achieving a meaning of the novella Heart of Darkness. Conrad, who was scornful of capitalism that institutionalized Christianity under a pretence of civilizing barbaric society, had chosen to not actively participate in political matters and events, but rather focused on merging his art to display a mosaic of political criticism within a language spectrum the audience was familiar with, with signs signifying meanings that are easy to accept. This study examines the power relations between the various entities and how Conrad’s methods described above proves effective in balancing the power entities. I intend to examine the relationships between the above mentioned entities to argue that the power relations are evident in various aspects of the novella and even in its criticism that has accumulated in the proceeding centuries, and illustrate how these relations bear fruit in the literature.
