Which evidence best explains Achebe’s rebuttal to the counterclaim that Conrad knew Africa because he had traveled there in 1890? “There are two probable grounds on which what I have said so far may be contested. The first is that it is no concern of fiction to please people about whom it is written.” “Conrad’s picture of the peoples of the Congo seems grossly inadequate even at the height of their subjection to the ravages of King Leopold’s International Association for the Civilization of Central Africa.” “And we also happen to know that Conrad was, in the words of his biographer, Bernard C. Meyer, ‘notoriously inaccurate in the rendering of his own history.’” “The event Frank Willett is referring to marked the beginning of cubism and the infusion of new life into European art that had run completely out of strength.”
