Властта на въображаемите светове. Актуалният и дългосрочният литературен успех на Джоузеф Конрад
The power of imaginary worlds. The shortand long-term literary success of Joseph Conrad

Summary/Abstract: The study examines the enthronement of this specific type of non-authoritatve literary authority in the case of an English writer of Polish origin, the largely renown nowadays Joseph Conrad (1857-1924), who starts from the weak position of an emigrant, foreign to the literary circles in the metropolis. Fulfilling the criteria for publishing success at the beginning of his career, at the same time Conrad remained adamant in constructing his fictional worlds, stylistic mastery, and ethical principles. If we take the title of his most successful commercially novel, Chance, the success of the modern author is not a chance of market conjecture, but a sequence of the author’s project.
