Full Description

The anthology consists of essays authored by scholars of different nationalities from diverse cultures, nations and primary languages. They cover Conrad's presence across multiple media (fiction, films, comics, and graphic novels).

The collection is unique because the contributors focused on Conrad's presence in contemporary culture - a constantly changing field - rather than well-trodden paths. The exploration of Polish, French, Italian, Spanish, English and American works of art strengthens its originality. The artists discussed in connection with Conrad include Olga Tokarczuk, Stanisław Lem, Robert Silveberg, Loic Godart, Christian Bobin, Christian Perrissin, Tom Tirabosco, Eduardo Berti, J.M. Coetzee, Michelangelo Antonioni.

Last but not least, the volume contains 20 stunning reproductions in full colour from films, graphic novels and comics.
