Access Today Robinson Crusoé Formulated By Daniel Defoe Made Available In Paperback
Crusoe was the first book I had read by myself I was absolutely entranced, I had no smallest idea that books could be so hypnotizing.
Strange may it seem but most of all I enjoyed reading the lists of the items Robinson was salvaging from the wrecked ship,
“My next care was for some ammunition and arms, There were two very good fowlingpieces in the great cabin, and two pistols, These I secured first, with some powderhorns and a small bag of shot, and two old rusty swords, I knew there were three barrels of powder in the ship, but knew not where our gunner had stowed them but with much search I found them, two of them dry and good, the third had taken water.
Those two I got to my raft with the arms, ”
I dreamt to be shipwrecked and to have all that stuff for myself and to live on some desert tropical isle where theres no winter and coconuts just lie underfoot.
And I followed Robinson step by step participating in all his adventures and misadventures,
But somehow after Robinson Crusoe had found his man Friday the charms started dissipating His solitude and lonely existence in the wilderness were much more enchanting.
Robinson Crusoe is a book one should read in ones childhood otherwise the greater part of its romantic charms would be lost, And although I was literally stunned by this novel I never had a desire to reread it,
Robinson Crusoe is a timeless memorial to the human willpower and invincible will to live, A story of ordeals at the sea of a feisty and valiant character, Robinson Crusoe, theyear from England! I proclaim him to be a “Man of Providence” , emerging victorious from all the mayhem, every time!!
Marooned multiple times at various instances, he is saved every time by sheer Providence.
Maybe it is rightly said, fortune favors the brave!
The felicitousness experienced during this adventurous seafaring read embarked my sullen spirit onto a renewed journey of life.
Thanks to Daniel Defoe!
Crusoe is persuaded by his father to opt for law as a career, instead to pursue frenetically his passion of being a seafarer.
Crusoes father like a regular loving father, wants him to seek a modest, secure life for himself, Committed to staying obsequious to his father, he finally succumbs to his temptations and embarks on a ship bound for London along with a friend, The tempestuous storm sets their lives in danger, dissuading the friend from any more sea travel, Crusoe too keeps dillydallying in between his fathers advice and his own temptation, and finally sets himself as a merchant on a ship leaving for London.
He is fastidious and comes back financially successful, setting on a second voyage, which doesnt prove as fortunate! The ship is seized by the pirates and he is enslaved and held captive.
But he is able to be set free during a fishing expedition, and sail down to the African coast, He meets a kindred Portuguese captain who takes him along to Brazil, where Crusoe establishes himself as a successful plantation owner, Embarking on a slavegathering expedition to West Africa, he ends up shipwrecked! Being the sole survivor, he seeks food and shelter, keeps a journal documenting his household activities, and logs all his attempts at making candles, and many more exciting daily events, meticulously.
In the June of, he falls sick, and hallucinates of an angel visiting himI still feel it was for real :P, warning him to repent!
Post recovery, he discovers a pleasant valley abounding in
grapes, and constructs a shady retreat, proclaiming himself as its “king”.
“My island was now peopled, and I thought myself very rich in subjects and it was a merry reflection, which I frequently made, how like a king I looked.
First of all, the whole country was my own property, so I had an undoubted right of dominion, Secondly, my people were perfectly subjected I was absolutely lord and lawgiver they all owed their lives to me, and were ready to lay down their lives, if there had been an occasion for it, for me.
”
The novel is bulky, and is full of a labyrinthine of excitement and thrills!
Robinson Crusoe, throughout the journey, emerged as a grand epic adventurer, worth laudable for previous, present, and future generations.
He is astute and dexterous, resourceful and independent, Amidst all difficulties, he never gives up, builds a shelter for himself, manages food, and never disparages anyone or boasts his own strength and luck.
Additionally, he is generous and charitable, distributing gifts to his sisters, He does have a tinge of covetousness for possessions, power, and prestige, He addresses himself as a “King of the island”, Though this address seemed more jocund to me!
Robinson Crusoe comes across as an exemplary adventurer and sailor of life, not only of the sea!
He keeps expostulating the regular mundane course of life and allows Providence to sail him through all the adventures of life.
This classic vignette of a seafarer doesnt deserve anything less than a star!
NBWhat appealed to me the most was Crusoes intrinsic selfawareness which he banked upon, further whetting it during moments of solace and aloneness, and never letting it abandon him.
From not turning into a brute while being marooned on the island, to journaling all alone in his shelter, delineating his wonted spiritled side! His selfawareness appeared to be his muchwonted accouterment.
As a novel Robinson Crusoe is not the easiest to read, three hundred years separate us, their world and ours will never connect too much has passed for that, however we are the same species with faults and all human.
The well known story shows survival is the ultimate prize for the vast majority of creatures called people of the Earth, A lone and lonely man shipwrecked by an intense storm in a hostile foreign environment, far away from his own land in fearful existence as any normal being would be, living from day to day escaping and hiding from cannibals.
. A nearby island they come, feasting on captured rival tribes these natives of the Caribbean Sea of the late's never could imagine what will occur in the future here while eating in their banquet and devouring the victims , the creamywhite sands don't stay that color.
Today millions of tourists travel to the gorgeous beaches as the Sun's bright rays shine on these happy men and women from cold places seeking relaxation.
On the other hand Mr, Crusoe complains of being soaked by the rains, . . Until Friday shows up his parrot with a limited vocabulary and spicy dialogue I'm sure, being a gentleman the narrator fails to bring to light and you can't consider his other pets the cats , dogs and especially the numerous goats they communicate very little except for dinner let me be very clear on this they eat, not Mr.
Robinson mostly. Some of the best action scenes are not on the isle but off the island either a long distant from shore or the Atlantic, Arabs of North Africa kidnap the sailor making him a slave but ships sink, pirates are greedy, and while digging for useful items on his beach still the tide flows in, hanging to a piece of wood which was once a ship, yet finding rum has its compensations.
. . this because our friend ignored his father's warning, leaves anyway the comfortable home atfor adventure and suffers for his mistakes, . . The battle with hungry wolves in the mountains of northern Spain is the best, . . the frozen ground saturated with blood and angry desperate beasts kill or die their only option, Dislike or enjoy a book which changed literature and for the second time shadows of the Earth arose and I touched, دوستان گرانقدر نویسنده با نبوغ و استعداد بسیار در قالب داستان نشان داده است که زندگی دستجمعی و اجتماع انسانی تا چه اندازه میتواند برای ما مفید و بایسته باشد انسانها باید به طور جمعی زندگی کنند تا بتوانند به زندگی خویش ادامه دهند
