黑暗

Heart of Darkness is full of depictions of Africa as a savage and dark continent. Subject to the social conditions, Conrad stereotyped Africa as a primitive stage of human history and the African culture was separated from European culture. Africa is regarded as "Other".

康拉德在《黑暗的心》中描写非洲时所使用的意象深深地打上了白人文化的烙印，他把非洲贬为野蛮原始之域，充满神秘色彩，是作为"他者"而存在的，非洲的原始衬托了欧洲的文明与开化。

In 1962, Peter Drucker, the famous master of economics and management, presents definitely that logistics was the last area for decreasing cost in his paper Economy"s Dark Continent published in fortune. For 40 years, the concept of logistics was expanded continually and more and more attentions were paid on it. Especially from middle of 1980"s to this day, with the increase of economic globalization and development of the information technology, more and more enterprises go back to their main businesses, and pay their points on these businesses such as product development, manufacture, marketing, which are their core businesses and they are good at. These businesses embody the competitive advantages of the enterprises.

1962年著名经济管理学大师彼得·杜拉克在美国《财富》杂志上发表《经济的黑暗大陆》一文，首次明确地提出物流是节约成本的最后领域。40年来，物流的概念在不断地拓展，人们对物流管理越来越重视，特别是80年代中期至今，随着经济全球化竞争的加剧、信息技术的飞速发展，许多生产企业回归主业，将精力集中于产品开发、生产、销售等具有竞争优势的核心专长业务的呼声日益高涨，理论界和企业界已不再浅层次的探讨物流管理的重要性问题了，他们开始探讨物流管理的模式问题，即：究竟是自营物流业务，还是将物流业务外包给专门从事物流管理的企业去做。

IT IS a coincidence, but an appropriate one nonetheless, that Europe should try to relaunch its relations with Africa in Lisbon. It was from here, in 1415, that Portuguese ships first set out to begin the European exploration and conquest of the dark continent; and it will be here on December 8th that politicians from 53 African and 27 European countries will gather at a summit to bury the old colonial relationships in favour of something more modern and "equal", as the Europeans like to put it.

欧洲应该在里斯本重新规划他们与非洲的关系，这是一个巧合，然而却是一个适宜的巧合。1415年，第一艘葡萄牙货轮就是从欧洲出发开始了欧洲人的探险之旅并征服了黑暗大陆；而且，2007年的12月8日，来自非洲53个国家与欧洲27个国家的政治领导人也将在欧洲举行一次首脑峰会，以彻底掩埋欧非的殖民与被殖民关系，正如欧洲人喜欢说的那样——来有助于实现更加现代化与"平等"的事务。

The map of Africa was no longer just a coastline; slowly but surely light was beginning to fall on the "dark continent", as hills and valleys, rivers and lakes were carefull filled in.

非洲的地图不再仅仅是一个海岸线；缓慢地然而稳步地，这块"黑暗大陆"开始清晰起来，随着山川沟谷，河流湖泊被仔细地填到地图中去。

Dark Continent; Africa

黑暗大陆；非洲

Kurtz,who at the beginning appears as white, as bright, and as progressive, comes to Africa with his noble belief——imparting civilization and humanity to the dark continent and bringing progress and instruction to the natives, but later totally degenerates.

带着想要把文明和人性带给非洲大陆的神圣的信念，库茨来到了他眼中的黑暗大陆，梦想当一位传播文明的使者，结果却在利益的诱惑和贪婪的野心下屈服，变成了贪婪、残忍的殖民者，最后因恐惧自己所犯下的罪恶而死亡。

In the United States, chronic alcoholism and hepatitis C are the most common ones.
