Description: This revised Norton Critical Edition represents a complete recasting of the 1968 edition. In accordance with recent scholarship, the preferred first English edition (William Blackwood & Sons, 1900) is now the copy-text. The novel is accompanied by expanded annotations, textual notes (including all variants in the heavily revised magazine version of Lord Jim as well as the book editions published in Conrad’s lifetime), and "A Lord Jim Gazetteer and Glos sary of Eastern and Nautical Terms."

A wealth of background and source material is included. Conrad’s correspondence; a previously unavailable account of Lord Jim’s several endings; richly detailed accounts of the novel’s historical and literary sources; geographical and topographical studies; six illustrations; and two maps.

The best critical writing on Lord Jim is presented in twelve essays by Hugh Clifford, Albert J. Guerard, Ian Watt, Fredric Jameson, J. Hillis Miller, Edward Said, Philip M. Weinstein, Paul B. Armstrong, Marianne DeKoven, and Daphna Erdinast-Vulcan, among others.

A selected bibliography in included.
