| npr.org | 'HOW TO SURVIVE THE TITANIC,' AND SINK YOUR NAME J. Bruce Ismay probably shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as any of the true criminals of the 20th century, but for many years he may have been the most universally despised man in the Western world. Ismay, heir to the prominent British White Star Line shipping company, owned the Titanic, and he's the one who said it would be fine to put just 20 lifeboats on a ship that could hold 2,800 people. Why clutter the decks, he argued, when the ship itself is a lifeboat?... |

Ismay became a kind of modern ancient mariner, endlessly trying to explain himself, but his solipsism meant that the 1,500 people who died on the Titanic collapsed into the intractable problem of his disappointment in himself. As Conrad's narrator Marlow finally realises at the end of Lord Jim's story: "Nobody, nobody is good enough."... |
