Lord Jim ist ein Roman von Joseph Conrad, zuerst publiziert als Fortsetzungsgeschichte in Blackwood's Magazine von Oktober 1899 bis November 1900. Der Roman gliedert sich in zwei Teile, eine psychologische Erzählung über Jims moralischen Fehler an Bord des Pilgerschiffs Patna und in eine Abenteuer-Geschichte über Jims Aufstieg und Niedergang unter den Einwohnern von Patusan, einem Eingeborenenstaat irgendwo in Ostindien bzw. Südostasien.

Anstoß zu dem Roman gab die dramatische Geschichte des Pilgerschiffs Jeddah, das 1880 in Seenot von seinem Kapitän verlassen wurde. Conrad befasste sich mit dieser Geschichte nach seiner Ankunft in Singapur 1883.

Work Description

This compact novel, completed in 1900, as with so many of the great novels of the time, is at its baseline a book of the sea. An English boy in a simple town has dreams bigger than the outdoors and embarks at an early age into the sailor's life. The waters he travels reward him with the ability to explore the human spirit, while Joseph Conrad launches the story into both an exercise of his technical prowess and a delicately crafted picture of a character who reaches the status of a literary hero.
