Heart of Darkness
She walked with measured steps, draped in striped and fringed cloths, treading the earth proudly, with a slight jingle and flash of barbarous ornaments. She carried her head high; her hair was done in the shape of a helmet; she had brass leggings to the knee, brass wire gauntlets to the elbow, a crimson spot on her tawny cheek, innumerable necklaces of glass beads on her neck; bizarre things, charms, gifts of witch-men, that hung about her, glittered and trembled at every step. She must have had the value of several elephant tusks upon her. She was savage and superb, wild-eyed and magnificent; there was something ominous and stately in her deliberate progress. And in the hush that had fallen suddenly upon the whole sorrowful land, the immense wilderness, the colossal body of the fecund and mysterious life seemed to look at her, pensive, as though it had been looking at the image of its own tenebrous and passionate soul. She came abreast of the steamer, stood still, and faced us. Her long shadow fell to the waters edge. Her face had a tragic and fierce aspect of wild sorrow and of dumb pain mingled with the fear of some struggling, half-shaped resolve. She stood looking at us without a stir, and like the wilderness itself, with an air of brooding over an inscrutable purpose. A whole minute passed, and then she made a step forward. There was a low jingle, a glint of yellow metal, a sway of fringed draperies, and she stopped as if her heart had failed her. The young fellow by my side growled. The pilgrims murmured at my back. She looked at us all as if her life had depended upon the unswerving steadiness of her glance. Suddenly she opened her bared arms and threw them up rigid above her head, as though in an uncontrollable desire to touch the sky, and at the same time the swift shadows darted out on the earth, swept around on the river, gathering the steamer into a shadowy embrace. A formidable silence hung over the scene. Joseph Conrad
b Read the poem Artichoke below. Does it, too, suggest that there is, among other things, a story or stories in the poem? Use your insights either to write or to discuss with others in your class how we infer stories from other forms of art.
Artichoke
He had studied in private years ago The way to eat these things, and was prepared When she set the clipped green globe before him. He only wondered (as he always did When he plucked from the base the first thick leaf, dipped it into the sauce and caught her eye as he deftly set the velvet curve against the inside edges of his lower teeth and drew the tender pulp toward his tongue while she made some predictable remark about the sensuality of this act then sheared away the spines and ate the heart) what mind, what hunger, first saw this as food. Henry Taylor
Artichoke by Guilherme Lambert Gomes Ferraz (UWC-USA, 2010)
Guiding questions 1 What thematic significance does the figure of the woman have?
2 How does Conrad make use of figurative language? In many respects, this extract is typical of the kind you will often see in an individual oral commentary exam, as it is rich in literary devices and highly detailed in its portrayal of content.
Narrative as a particular study In the 20th century, a whole discipline emerged called narratology. Essentially, it is the theory and study of how narratives work in both fictional and non-fictional forms. Many scholars have explored, and still are exploring, such questions as:
M M
what is the nature of narrative and narratives what role does narrative play in human culture what is the relation of narrative to such terms as story and plot?
Activity
Having read the extract above taken from Heart of Darkness, answer the following questions, with reference to the notes on literary features that follow on the next page: 1 How does the narrator present the figure of the woman? You could consider such things as descriptions of her clothing, her isolation from others, her beauty, her sense of sadness, her power, as well as her vulnerability, her relationship with the landscape, etc. 2 In what ways does the extract make use of contrasts, for example between the woman and other pilgrims, real and illusory, civilized and barbaric? 3 What kinds of developments take place within the extract? 4 What kinds of attitudes and feelings does the narrator convey towards his subjects? 5 How important is sense description in the extract? 6 In what ways does the extract incorporate ambiguity and/or paradox?
M
We will explore narrative a little more fully below. Narrative is a wide-ranging category in daily life as it is in many other disciplines or subjects, such as sociology, art, anthropology, history, theatre and even the daily news. However, in order to help you acquire a firm grounding in what you will need to know and apply in reading your works for this course and applying what you know to assessments, we will look at some essential aspects of how novels and short stories are constructed and received by readers.

SECTION 1
Language and culture Language, as a communicative act, is social. While meaning may be tied to cultural context, culture itself is shaped through our language use. These concerns will be the more specific focus of chapter 4, but it is worth noting here the close tie between what it means to be the social, cultural animals that we are and language. The more closely we consider language, the more obvious it is that it has special qualities equivalent to, or as a function of, its place in our lives.

Ad analysis
Analyze the advertisement below. Write a brief response describing its style and register. What is the general tone of the text? How do both words and images contribute to the tone? What is the style and register of the text? How is this style and register related to genre? How does this text take advantage of our expectations or knowledge of genre? What words and images point to the first level of the texts humorous or superficial intentions? What words and images point to the real message of the text?
Questions to the text 1 Do you agree with Hageges views on language? What does it mean when he says language deceives nothingness?
2 Hagege thinks it is important for people to be bilingual, no matter what two languages they speak. Why would he hold this view? 3 Can bilingualism (or multilingualism) call our attention to special qualities of language?
What is culture?
Since language is so clearly tied up in culture, and a significant part of this course asks you to look at both literature and language in relation to culture, it is worth asking what culture actually is. Though we could start with a basic definition for culture, it is worth looking at a variety of definitions and how our ideas of what culture is, how it operates, and how it should be studied have changed over the years and are really in a constant state of flux. It would be wrong to say that the word culture means the same thing to every person. In fact, your own conception of culture may vary depending on your culture.

Culture broadly defines a system of meaning for a group of people and it includes language, laws, customs, myths, images, texts, and daily practices.

The relationship between language and culture is a key priority, in line with the new syllabus

It is a very good book and will be of great help to my students. We are looking to adopt it.
