What type of evidence does Achebe use to contrast
Conrad's point of view with that of other renowned
people of his era?
O an anecdotal reflection drawn from contemporary
figures
O a direct quotation reflecting historical events
O geographical facts with historical context
O historical evidence that Conrad researched

Respuesta :

Answer:

D). Historical evidence that Conrad researched.

Explanation:

Chinua Achebe critiques Joseph Conrad for the racist portrayal of Africans in his book 'The Heart of Darkness.' He contradicts Conrad's point of view by providing 'historical evidence that Conrad researched' as he felt that the latter being an outsider could never feel the actual pain and struggle suffered by the Africans. These historical instances not only deny Conrad's portrayal of Africans as Savage but also glorifies the rich history and culture of Africa which existed before the arrival of colonizers. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
