The meaning of "hypocrite of darkness" will be either the interior of the Africa called Congo. Another hidden meaning is, the title stands for the darkness or the primitiveness that every person possesses in his or her mind and heart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, is an analogy for a perspective. The epic Heart of Darkness manages Marlowe's plunge into the profundities of Africa and resulting return as a changed man. The excursion into Africa reflects both a physical, transient and mental excursion.

Heart of Darkness starts on the deck of the Nellie, a British boat tied down on the shore of the Thames. The unknown storyteller, the Director of Companies, the Accountant, and Marlow sit peacefully. Marlow starts enlightening the three men regarding a period he ventured in a steamboat up the Congo River.
