康拉德在《黑暗的心》中既展现出对黑人悲惨处境的同情悲悯，也体现出对白人文明的尊崇敬佩。身处于殖民主义盛行的西方社会，康拉德在服从主流话语与遵循内心之间挣扎纠结，复杂情绪弥漫在整个文本间。文章将运用“颠覆”和“抑制”理论，从殖民话语、男性至上主义和人类中心主义这三方面来探讨康拉德对于殖民者主流话语摇摆不定的态度和复杂情绪。

In Heart of Darkness, Conrad not only showed sympathy for the miserable situation of the black, but also showed respect and admiration for the civilization of European whites. Living in the western society where colonialism was prevalent, Conrad struggled between obeying the mainstream discourse and following his heart. Thus, complex emotions permeated the whole text. This paper will use the theory of "subversion" and "containment" to discuss Conrad's uncertain attitudes and complex feelings towards the colonial mainstream discourse from three aspects: colonial discourse, sexism and anthropocentrism.
