Abstract: Conrad’s Heart of Darkness has received great attention at literatus and been interpreted from various perspectives since its publication. What Conrad mainly wants to depict in this novel are the ruthless, never-ending exploitation and oppression of the natives by the white men and the hidden dark desires in the deepest part of human nature. This thesis, by analyzing the protagonist Kurtz’s metamorphosis in Africa, attempts to probe into the causes of his self-exile. Kurtz enters the heart of Africa with his original intention of being a civilization emissary there, but he becomes a slave to desires in the jungle. Spellbound by the fortune obtained illegally, Kurtz turns into a devil and forfeits his life. It concludes that the causes of Kurtz’s self-exile are ascribed to the evil side of human nature and to his boundless desires for power and fortune.

Key words: Heart of Darkness; Conrad; Kurtz; self-exile; desires
