Originally published in 1985 as with the earlier volumes in the series the reader of The Rover is here provided a Verbal Index citing each type and its location a Word Frequency Table and a Field of Reference. Using the tables in this concordance the reader should be better able to address the issue of style and determine on a more informed basis whether Conrad has deliberately eschewed the adjectival and even the figurative in favour of a lean spare style or whether he has simply tangled his style in rhetorical excesses and imprecisions. |A Concordance to Conrad's The Rover | Literature
