摘要
Conrad's representation of the Cosas de Russia in his fictional and non-fictional works has been variously interpreted as Russophobia or Russophilia. In particular, the meaning and significance of the Russian subject in Under Western Eyes has caused some misunderstandings and misreadings of the novel. Though the subsequent political events of world history have slightly impacted its reception history for the better, it may be true to say that its real relevance and artistry have not been fully recognised to date. The focus is on the juxtaposition of the Eastern and the Western settings, the intercultural East-West encounters and the different Western and Eastern modes of perception.
