Notes: "The present volume is a product of the third International Joseph Conrad conference, organised by Joseph Conrad Society (Poland). The first took place in Gdańsk in 1997; its theme was "Various National Perspectives on Conrad." The second "Conrad and History," took place in Cracow in September 1999, within the framework of the Festival "Cracow 2000." This volume reflects, much more fully, the proceedings of the third Conference, held in Kamień Śląski and Cracow in September 2004"--p. [7].
