- W19955329 abstract "In December of 1957 the Conrad Centenary celebrations were held in Warsaw. Among the foreign guests who delivered addresses in Eng lish were Richard Curie, Conrad's friend and biographer, Jocelyn Baines, one of the editors of Longmans, Green and Co., author of a forthcom ing new biography of Conrad, and Dr. Ivo Vidan of Yugoslavia. The English writers were invited by the Polish Academy of Sciences, the Polish Writers' Union and the Polish PEN Club.

The interesting discussion about the emigration of Polish talent was that it began actually before Conrad won wide-spread recognition in England. And the severe censure of Conrad by Eliza Orzeszkowa, to whom he was a careerist writing popular, lucrative novels in English, was unin tentionally ironic; at the time Conrad was struggling against poverty in spite of good press reviews. That Conrad suffered from a sense of guilt because of having left Poland is clear from direct statements of his and from his preoccupation with the theme of betrayal and redemption.
