Robinson Crusoe: The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe

by Daniel Defoe, Redaktion Gröls-Verlag (Editor)

Overview

With Robinson Crusoe, Defoe presented one of the most important novels in world literature. He plays with literary genres in a virtuoso way that only a great author can do. For today's readers, this novel is not only exciting, but also a moral portrait of the colonial empire of the time. Such a successful combination of entertainment and erudition rarely occurs in this form in classical literature - not to mention modern literature. Gröls Classics - English Edition
