타인의 담화 속의 너 : 노스트로모와 라즈모프 = You in Others' Discourses : Nostromo and Razumov

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This article is to investigate politics and writing in Joseph Conrad's works, looking into two main characters unvoluntarily involved in political incidents: Nostromo and Razumov.
Politics is one of most important motives of Conrad's writing. In the case of politics in Conrad's works, what ideology a person has is not a point; instead, it is the gap of private and public aspects of political matters imposed to an individual. Nostromo and Razumov were obliged to be embroiled into social convulsion and perform their own supposed political role in it. In this process they should face an existing gap between the supposed role and their real ego, and cope with the levied problems in their own ways.
The way to find the characters' stand in political conflicts and express themselves is structured in narrative itself, and this is also related to their efforts for dominancy in the narrative structure. The only and most effective strategy each of the characters wields is hiding and revealing the secret he has. They use this means to take a stable stand in political relations as well as in narrative. We can say that Nostromo failed to occupy it because he lost his secret and words; on the contrary Razumov succeeded in acquiring it.
These character's passage and efforts to occupy a just portion in narrative and to be safe is in the same track of the author to keep tracing his unconscious and private desire. It is well known that the author was born and raised in the family suffered from the political incidents. Therefore, politics is not only an idea but also a part of real life to him and his family. Revealing and Hiding we can find in Nostromo's and Razumov's tales is also shown in the writing course of Joseph Conrad. As a result, the author meets another self through writing just as the two characters try to find their own words.
