Importing in Gephi
After selecting New Project in the startup screen, go to File > Import Spreadsheet.
Then you're gonna use the
edges_with_topics.csv
and nodes_with_clusters.csv
to import the edges and the nodes.
When your importing is complete, you're ready to layout your graph. Let's use Force Atlas 2:

You can do the same for the edges then.
Then, in the Preview tab, you can select a few nice settings (Black background, keep the colors of edges) and export it.
