Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an analysis of Robinson Crusoe, Daniel Defoe's enduring story of a shipwrecked sailor who spends 28 years on a remote island. In his exploration of the novel, the author traces the origins of the tale to the real-life experiences of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish mariner who lived alone on the island of Juan Fernandez for over four years. The book situates Defoe's work within the context of the rise of novel writing in 18th century England and the corresponding fascination with tales of adventure, exploration and solitude. It provides a close reading of the text, examining themes of self-reliance, resourcefulness, and the human condition. The book reveals the significance of Selkirk's story as a source of inspiration for Defoe's imaginative recreation, and demonstrates how Robinson Crusoe continues to resonate with readers today.
