The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe By Daniel Defoe

Daniel Defoe (1660 – 1731) He was born in the family of nonconformists (Dissenters)-those who refused to accept the rules of an established national Church. His father, a butcher, was wealthy enough to give his son a good education. Daniel was to become a priest in the Nonconformist Church, but when his training was completed, he decided to engage in business as a hosier. He wanted to become wealthy, but his wish was never fulfilled.

He went bankrupt several times. He was always deep in debt He went bankrupt several times. He was always deep in debt. The only branch of business in which he proved successful was journalism and literature. Daniel Defoe was the founder of the early realistic novel and the father of English periodicals.

During the reign of Queen Anne (1702 -1714), persecution of the Dissenters began again, as in the reign of James II. Defoe wrote a pamphlet in defence of the Dissenters, in which he attacked the Tories and the established Church. The author was sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment.

Daniel Defoe’s work In 1719, Daniel Defoe tried another kind of literature – fiction, and wrote the novel which brought him world-wide fame –”The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe”. After the book had been published Defoe became famous and rich and was able to pay his creditors in full.

Daniel Defoe’s work Daniel Defoe was a true writer of the Enlightenment. He introduced the common man as the key-character of his novel. Robinson Crusoe-1719 Captain Singlton-1720 Colonel Jack-1722 The Fortunes and Misfortunes of Moll Flanders-1722

“Robinson Crusoe” Books about voyages and new discoveries were extremely popular in the first quarter of the 18th century. A true story that was described in one of the magazines, attracted Defoe’s attention. It was about Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor, who had quarreled with his captain and was put ashore on a desert island near South America where he lived alone for 4 years and 4 months. In 1709 he was picked up by a passing vessel. The story is told in the first person; this produces the impression that the author himself lived through all the adventures described by him.

Daniel Defoe made his hero, Robinson Crusoe, spend 28 years on a desert island. At the beginning of the story the hero is a reckless youth, who develops into a strong- willed man, able to withstand all the hardships. Robinson Crusoe’s most characteristic trait is his optimism. He is an enthusiastic worker and always hopes for the best.

Robinson Crusoe is very practical Robinson Crusoe is very practical. The beauty of the island has no appeal to him, he regards the island as his personal property. He is proud to be master of it. He believes in God and in the hand of Providence. In desperate moments he turns to God for help. The other central character is Friday. He is intelligent, generous and skilful. He is portrayed as a kind-hearted man. a captured native that broke free and became Crusoe’s servant.

Plot Summary In the beginning Robinson Crusoe was on a Portuguese ship off of the coast of Africa, then the whole ship was caught in a storm and ship wrecked onto an Island that he named “The Island Of Despair.” He was the only survivor and used the ships materials to build a home. After being there for many years he befriended a native prisoner that he named Friday. Friday became his servant and best friend. He built a boat and travels to a neighboring native island with Friday, where he found cannibals that had imprisoned three Spaniards and had already consumed two. Robinson came to the rescue of the remaining Spaniard. Having the Spaniard by his side he set off and found three French sailors. The French sailors brought Robinson, Friday and the Spaniard back to their ship which traveled to Jamaica.
