영문 초록

Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness and Amy Foster, written at the end of the 19th Century, were translated into films such as Francis Ford Coppola's, Apocalypse Now, Nicolas Roeg's, Heart of Darkness, and Beeban Kidron's, Swept from the Sea at the end of the 20th Century. These films interpret and recreate the original works of fiction in the modern perspective of directors and producers, and thus give the audience an opportunity to reread Conrad's fiction in various ways. In Apocalypse Now, Coppola exploits the plot and theme of Conrad's Heart of Darkness as a Vietnam War protest. Roeg's Heart of Darkness visualizes Marlow's inner journey into the hell of Conrad's text, using mysterious sound effects and poetic color images. Kidron deals with the misunderstanding and hostility between different races, the theme of Amy Foster, but she transforms Conrad's subtle, complex representations of contemporary ideology, such as social Darwinism and white superiority into a beautiful love story. Finally, Kidron focusses on and revises Conrad's misogyny in her Swept from the Sea. These films, as visualized illustrations and interpretations of Conrad's profound dark fiction, contribute to expanding the methods to approach Conrad's themes.
