'Robinson Crusoe has a universal appeal, a story that goes right to the core of existence' Simon ArmitageDaniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, regarded by many to be first novel in English, is also the original tale of a castaway struggling to survive on a remote desert island. The sole survivor of a shipwreck, Robinson Crusoe is washed up on a desert island. In his journal he chronicles his daily battle to stay alive, as he conquers isolation, fashions shelter and clothes, enlists the help of a native islander who he names 'Friday', and fights off cannibals and mutineers. Written in an age of exploration and enterprise, it has been variously interpreted as an embodiment of British imperialist values, as a portrayal of 'natural man', or as a moral fable. But above all is a brilliant narrative, depicting Crusoe's transformation from terrified survivor to self-sufficient master of an island. This edition contains a full chronology of Defoe's life and times, explanatory notes, glossary and a critical introduction discussing Robinson Crusoe as a pioneering work of modern psychological realism.Edited with an introduction and notes by John Richetti.

När Robinson Crusoes skepp förliser i en våldsam storm och han spolas upp på stranden på en till synes obebodd ö, inleds en av världslitteraturens mest berömda och lästa skildringar av människans uppfinningsrikedom och överlevnadsförmåga. Utan något annat än resterna från skeppsvraket, öns natur och sitt eget förnuft lyckas Robinson skapa sig en tillvaro på ön. I tjugofyra år framhärdar han i ensamhet, tills han en dag räddar livet på en ung pojke. Robinson Crusoe publicerades första gången 1719, räknas som en av de första engelska romanerna och brukar sägas vara den mest översatta boken i världen efter Bibeln. Romanen tillhör litteraturhistoriens mest betydande verk och har haft ett enormt inflytande på populärkulturen, inte minst genom oräkneliga filmer och böcker med variationer på Defoes tema. I översättning av Birgit Edlund.
DANIEL DEFOE [ca 1660-1731] var en engelsk författare, politisk journalist, affärsman och spion. Till skillnad från många av hans politiska texter, som vid ett tillfälle ledde till att han greps och fängslades, blev Robinson Crusoe en omedelbar framgång.

Robinson Crusoe, är en roman från 1719 av Daniel Defoe om en man som överlever ett skeppsbrott och vistas på en nästintill öde ö i 28 år. En av Crusoes följeslagare på ön är infödingen Fredag, så kallad på grund av att Crusoe träffar honom på den veckodagen. Boken speglar 1700-talets upplysningsmänniska och visar upplysningstidens optimism för människans förnuft och kunnande.
Boken sägs ha inspirerats av verklighetens Alexander Selkirk. Selkirk hade efter ett bråk med sin kapten ”frivilligt” blivit i landsatt på en obebodd ö 500 km utanför Chiles kust., denne historiske Robinson blev räddad ur sin isolering redan efter fyra år. Han levde på sin uppfinningsrikedom och att han mediterade och läste Bibeln.
Men romanen har framför allt kommit att stå som en symbol för den klassiska äventyrsromanen och har genom alla tider fängslat läsare bland både barn och vuxna. Med sitt spännande motiv och sin fascinerande uppläggning har den lockat många senare författare till efterföljd.
Daniel Defoe, (1660-1731), var en brittisk författare, verksam under upplysningstiden.
Mest känd är han för sina litterära verk, skapade under senare delen av hans liv: The life and strange surprising adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1719), Memoirs of a cavalier (1720), The life, adventures and piracies of the famous captain Singelton (1720), Fortunes and misfortunes of the famous Moll Flanders (1722), The journal of the plague year (1722), History of colonel Jacque (1722), samt The fortunate mistress Roxana (1724).

Daniel Defoe's bawdy tale of a woman's struggle for independence and redemption, Moll Flanders is edited with an introduction and notes by David Blewett in Penguin Classics.Born in Newgate prison and abandoned six months later, Moll Flanders' drive to find and hold on to a secure place in society propels her through incest, adultery, bigamy, prostitution and a resourceful career as a thief ('the greatest Artist of my time') before her crimes catch up with her, and she is transported to the colony of Virginia in the New World. If Moll Flanders is on one level a Puritan's tale of sin and repentance, through self-made, self-reliant Moll, Daniel Defoe's rich subtext conveys all the paradoxes and amoralities of the struggle for property and power in the newly individualistic society of Eighteenth-century England.Based on the first edition of 1722, this volume includes a chronology, suggestions for further reading, notes on currency and maps of London and Virginia in the late seventeenth century.Daniel Defoe (1660-1731) had a variety of careers including merchant, soldier, spy, and political pamphleteer. Over the course of his life Daniel Defoe wrote over two hundred and fifty books on economics, history, biography and crime, but is best remembered for the fiction he produced in late life, which includes Robinson Crusoe (1719), Moll Flanders (1722) and Roxana (1724). Defoe had a great influence on the development of the English novel and many consider him to be the first true novelist.If you enjoyed Moll Flanders, you might like Samuel Richardson's Pamela, also available in Penguin Classics.

'Twelve Year a Whore, fives times a Wife (whereof once to her own Brother), Twelve Year a Thief, Eight Year a Transported Felon in Virginia, at last grew Rich, liv'd Honest, and died a Penitent'So the title page of this extraordinary novel describes the career of the woman known as Moll Flanders, whose real name we never discover. And so, in a tour-de-force of writing by the businessman, political satirist, and spy Daniel Defoe, Moll tells her own story, a vivid and racy tale of a woman's experience in the seamy side of life in late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century England and America. Born in Newgate prison, and seduced in the home of her adoptive family, she learns to live off her wits, defying the traditional depiction of women as helpless victims. First published in 1722, and one of the earliest novels in the English language, its account of opportunism, endurance, and survival speaks as strongly to us today as it did to its original readers. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

HarperCollins is proud to present a range of best-loved, essential classics.`My true name is so well known in the Records or Registers at Newgate, and in the Old Bailey, and there are some things of such consequence still depending there, relating to my particular conduct, that it is not to be expected I should set my name or the account of my family to this work.’Born into the seedy world of Newgate Prison and abandoned as a baby at six months old, Moll Flanders soon learns that she can only rely on herself. Her story is an unapologetic one of bigamy, prostitution and theft told in her own indomitable and alluring way. Scurrilous and incorrigible, the reader is left wondering whether Moll is merely a brazen criminal, or a victim or her own circumstance.Defoe’s witty romp through the eighteenth-century underworld has much to say about the forces of good and evil and is undeniably one of his most satirical novels.

Welcome to London in lockdown – in 1665 This timely re-release of Defoe’s classic comes with an introduction by Wellcome-Prize-winning author, Will Eaves. Actually written sixty years after the plague of 1665 swept through London, Defoe brings the city to life in all of its hardship and fear. With a wealth of detail, A Journal of the Plague Year seems almost a firsthand account, taking readers through the neighborhoods, houses and streets that have drastically changed with the rising death toll. The bustle of business and errands gives way to doors marked with the cross to signify a house of death, as well as the dead-carts transporting those struck down to the mass graves as the dead rise in number to nearly 200,000. As the epidemic progresses and the narrator encounters more stories of isolation and horror, Defoe reveals his masterful balance as both a historical and imaginative writer.

Britain in the early eighteenth century: an introduction that is both informative and imaginative, reliable and entertaining. To the tradition of travel writing Daniel Defoe brings a lifetime's experience as a businessman, soldier, economic journalist and spy, and his Tour (1724-6) is an invaluable source of social and economic history. But this book is far more than a beautifully written guide to Britain just before the industrial revolution, for Defoe possessed a wild, inventive streak that endows his work with astonishing energy and tension, and the Tour is his deeply imaginative response to a brave new economic world. By employing his skills as a chronicler, a polemicist and a creative writer keenly sensitive to the depredations of time, Defoe more than achieves his aim of rendering 'the present state' of Britain.

'The most reliable and comprehensive account of the Great Plague that we possess' Anthony Burgess In 1665 the plague swept through London, claiming over 97,000 lives. Daniel Defoe was just five at the time of the plague, but he later called on his own memories, as well as his writing experience, to create this vivid chronicle of the epidemic and its victims. 'A Journal' (1722) follows Defoe's fictional narrator as he traces the devastating progress of the plague through the streets of London. Here we see a city transformed: some of its streets suspiciously empty, some - with crosses on their doors - overwhelmingly full of the sounds and smells of human suffering. And every living citizen he meets has a horrifying story that demands to be heard.
