叙述传统常把叙述人客观报道文本事件视作唯一“合法”的叙述方法，似乎任何来自作者或叙述人的评述都是过份的介入。本文旨在说明康拉德在《黑暗中心》中的艺术成就是介于传统的“讲述”和现代的“表现”之间。这种成就的取得来自于作者巧妙的人物安排和氛围描写，它突破了传统的第三人称叙述模式，同时也使作者的描述具有叙事般的感召力。 Narrative traditions often treat the narrator’s objectively reported textual incidents as the only “legal” narrative method. It seems that any comment from the author or narrator is an excessive intervention. The purpose of this article is to show that Conrad’s artistic achievement in the “Dark Center” lies between the traditional “narration” and the modern “performance”. This achievement is derived from the clever character arrangement and ambience description of the author, which breaks through the traditional third-person narrative model and also makes the author’s narrative narrative appeal.
