2. Robinson Crusoe is based on a true story. In September 1704, a Scottish sailor named Alexander Selkirk was abandoned by the captain on the island of Amfernande in the Atlantic Ocean of South America, where he spent four years and four months on this deserted island. When he was discovered, he was a wild man and had forgotten the human language.

Selkirk's legendary experience attracted public attention, and newspapers also published some information about Selkirk's lonely life on a desert island. Based on the legend of Selkirk, Defoe poured his many years of maritime experiences and experiences into the characters, and made full use of his rich imagination for literary processing, and when he was almost 60 years old, he created this witty, elegant and popular biography**, which won him the reputation of "the father of England and Europe".

In addition to the wonderful and bizarre story, the most attractive thing about Robinson is his character. He dared to take risks and dared to pursue a free, unfettered life. Even if you are on a desert island, you will never be discouraged.

On a deserted island lacking the most basic living conditions, he was alone and overcame many difficulties that ordinary people could not imagine. Survived tenaciously with amazing perseverance. There was no house, he built it himself.

With no food, he tried to hunt, grow grain, train goats, dry wild raisins, and grope himself to make tables and chairs, make pottery, and make bread out of scarves. In his 24th year on the island, he also rescued a wild man. Give him the name "Friday".

Under his education, "Friday" became a faithful servant. In this way, Robinson established his own material and spiritual kingdom on a desert island. In the face of life's difficulties, Robinson's actions show the resolute character and heroic nature of a tough guy.

It embodies the creative and pioneering spirit of the rising bourgeoisie. Now, in the West, "Robinson" has become synonymous with adventurers and heroes in the hearts of millions of readers.

The reason why Robinson Crusoe has become an immortal masterpiece in the history of literature is also because of its authenticity and extraordinary artistic expression. Before him, most of Europe's long stories were mainly based on the achievements of emperors and generals or the romantic legends of knights and beauties. Defoe began to experiment with everyday language to describe the lives of ordinary people.

Although it is a fictional story, the depiction of Robinson's desert island life is realistic and natural, showing the author's extraordinary image and artistic expression. In addition, ** uses a first-person narration throughout, and the language is clear and clear, simple and vivid, all of which adds a lot of charm to the work.

Robinson Crusoe tells us the truth:

Even in desperate situations, look for the good side of yourself, always be optimistic and enthusiastic about life. In some extreme situations, it is also necessary to find the meaning of life, keep a fresh sense of life, love life, and believe in life. Everyone should believe in themselves, not retreat when encountering things, dare to face things bravely, and always actively find out what is good for themselves.

Robinson Crusoe is Defoe's masterpiece, and its value lies first in the successful creation of Robinson as a new character. He is one of the earliest positive characters in bourgeois literature, and with his strong will and positive enterprising spirit, he overwhelmed the conservative and unrestrained aristocratic figures.

Expand the capital bucket year:

Robinson Crusoe is a classic text that adapts to the new trend of Western historical and cultural development, and further sees the great role of human ability from the creative labor of human beings, so as to promote human intelligence and labor creative ability, and deny the absurd theory that God is omnipotent and God creates everything.

Through Robinson's 27 years of arduous experience of imitating a desert island, the work symbolically shows the basic trajectory of human development, thus putting forward the theme of the era that labor creates history. On the surface, this is an adventure** with a simple and straightforward storyline. However, if we borrow the theory of postcolonial criticism, Robinson Crusoe reflects the idea of colonialism.

The protagonist of this ** is a typical bourgeois colonialist who settles on a desert island and colonizes it. Not only did he control the entire desert island, but he also conquered his companions. In fact, the tendency of colonialism can be seen in every aspect of this **.
