  In this essay I would like to investigate the changing of the ideas of main characters of Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad and Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky and also the developing of their justification throughout the story.
  Heart of Darkness is a philosophical adventure novel of the famous English writer Joseph Conrad which was published in 1902 (in magazine version in 1899). The journal of the writer’s journey up the river Congo as a captain of a commercial vessel served as a basis for this novel. Despite all the attributes of the colonial story (for example, stations in between the jungle, fever, cannibals), still Heart of Darkness is not an ordinary adventure story. Like all great literary works, this novel has overstepped over the framework of its genre. Heart of Darkness is a fearsome and psychologically sophisticated story of the struggle between civilization and wild and powerful nature.
