A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Daniel Defoe (1660 – 24 April 1731), born Daniel Foe, was an English trader, writer, journalist, pamphleteer, and spy, most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe. Defoe is noted for being one of the earliest proponents of the novel, as he helped to popularise the form in Britain with others such as Samuel Richardson, and is among the founders of the English novel. He was a prolific and versatile writer, producing more than five hundred books, pamphlets, and journals on various topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural. He was also a pioneer of economic journalism.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe is one of the first adventure stories ever written. It chronicles Crusoe, and eventually his servant Friday, after he becomes shipwrecked on an island. Not just a piece of literary history, Crusoe is also a thrilling tale and an excellent commentary on imperialism and the foundation of human history. Robison Crusoe was the best selling book at the end of the 19th century and, due to such a compelling story packed with so much symbolism, has been made into 700 different versions and adaptations
