"When Defoe published The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe and The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe in 1719, he could not have imagined that Crusoe, Friday, and a footprint in the sand would enjoy global recognition 300 years later. Why-and how-does Crusoe's story resonate today? There is no shortage of explanations for the longevity of Defoe's creation, which has been interpreted as both religious allegory and frontier myth, with Crusoe seen as an example of the self-sufficient adventurer and the archetypal colonizer and capitalist. Defoe's original has been reimagined multiple times in legions of Robinsonade or castaway stories. But there is still much more to say-the Crusoe myth is far from spent. This wide-ranging collection brings together eleven scholars who suggest new and unfamiliar ways of thinking about this most familiar of works, and who ask us to consider the enduring appeal of "Crusoe," more recognizable today than ever before"--

When The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe and The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe first published in 1719, Defoe could not have imagined that his protagonist would enjoy global recognition 300 years later. With no shortage of explanations for its longevity, Defoe&;s tour de force has been interpreted as both religious allegory and frontier myth, its hero viewed variously as the self-sufficient adventurer and the archetypal colonizer and capitalist. Defoe&;s original has been reimagined multiple times in legions of Robinsonade or castaway stories, but there is still more to say&;the Crusoe myth is far from spent. The contributors to this wide-ranging collection suggest new and unfamiliar ways of thinking about this most familiar of works, asking us to consider the enduring appeal of &;Crusoe", more recognizable today than ever before.

This wide-ranging collection brings together eleven scholars who suggest new and unfamiliar ways of thinking about the 1719 publications The Life and Strange Surprizing Adventures of Robinson Crusoe and The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, and who ask us to consider the enduring appeal of &;Crusoe,&; more recognizable today than ever before.

Arvustused

"The editors have gathered a collection of excellent essays by eminent scholars on the continuing relevance and power after three hundred years of Defoes Robinson Crusoe. Informative and provocative, these essays provide an essential testimonial to the cultural and philosophical implications of Defoes classic novel through those centuries into our own." -- John Richetti * editor of The Cambridge Companion to Robinson Crusoe * "This rich, wide-ranging volume brings into view the kinds of concerns and contexts that have informed the reception of Robinson Crusoe itself as well as countless remediations: gender, individualism, imperialism; pantomime, cinema, animal stories for children; more variously, Newton, tobacco, the sequel, and Crusoeian iconicity. This collection is valuable both for its deepening contribution to Defoe studies and its broadening relevance to a larger conversation about the genres of the Robinsonade." -- Rivka Swenson * author of Essential Scots and the Idea of Unionism in Anglo-Scottish Literature, 1603-1832 * "[ An]outstanding collection of essays that demonstrates the enduring significance of literatures most famous castaway." * Restoration Journal * "A highly entertaining and enlightening collection of contemporary essays." * The Eighteenth-Century Intelligencer * "Valuable to eighteenth-century scholars with an interest in Defoe, postcolonialism, and reception studiesand beyond. * The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats *
