Robinson Crusoe explores Defoe's story, the legend it captured, the
universal desire which underlies the myth and a range of modern
re-writings which reveal a continued fascination with the
problematic character of this narrative. Whether envisaged as an
heroic rejection of the old world order, a piece of pre-colonialist
propaganda or a tale raising archetypal problems of 'otherness' and
'inequality', the mythic value of Crusoe has become a pretext over
many centuries for an examination of some of the fundamental
problems of existence. This collection of essays examines, from a
wide range of critical and philosophical perspectives, the cultural
manifestations of Robinson Crusoe in different centuries, in
different media, in different genres.
