Abstract
Argues that Joseph Conrad’s political novels belie the sweeping and vague rhetoric sometimes used to describe them. States that Conrad, disillusioned with materialism in his political novels, imagines that “industrialism and commercialism” may foster wars between democracies. Contends Conrad’s interest is at least divided between a grammar of motives and a grammar of political cause and effect.
