Download or read book Selected Writings of Daniel Defoe written by James T. Boulton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1975-05-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paradoxically, Daniel Defoe is diminished by his popularity as the author of a handful of important novels, since the remainder of his voluminous writings suffer undue neglect. Fully to understand him he should be taken whole but his authorship of over 500 publications renders this feat well nigh impossible. The purpose of this selection, then, is to enable the reader to make or renew the acquaintance of Defoe on some of his favourite topics such as trade and politics, manners and morality, in poetry as well as prose, and in works like A True Relation of the Apparition of One Mrs Veal and Memoirs of a Cavalier, which are characteristic blends of fact and fiction. Equipped with the insights possible from this sample, the reader - it is hoped - will return to the major novels with a keener appreciation of their distinctive quality and a livelier sense of their author.

Download or read book Robinson Crusoe written by Daniel Defoe and published by Modernista. This book was released on 2024-01-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robinson Crusoe, a classic novel by Daniel Defoe, unfolds the gripping tale of a resourceful and tenacious Englishman marooned on a remote island for decades. Set against the backdrop of the 17th century, this quintessentially British narrative follows the eponymous character, Robinson Crusoe, as he navigates the challenges of isolation and survival with unmatched resilience. Crusoe’s ingenuity and adaptability come to the fore as he transforms his barren surroundings into a self-sufficient haven. With vivid descriptions of the island's flora and fauna, Defoe paints a vivid picture of Crusoe’s solitary existence, crafting a timeless adventure that captivates readers with its exploration of human determination and the triumph of the human spirit. It is an iconic classic that has stood the test of time and left an indelible mark on the landscape of English literature. DANIEL DEFOE [1660-1731] was one of England's most versatile and prolific authors ever: a poet, journalist, political writer, travel writer, and essayist on subjects such as history and economics, among others. He is most renowned for the novels Robinson Crusoe [1719] and - the most critically acclaimed - Moll Flanders [1722].

Download or read book The Cambridge Edition of the Correspondence of Daniel Defoe written by Daniel Defoe and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 1018 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive and authoritative edition of the correspondence of Daniel Defoe situates each letter in its biographical, literary, and historical contexts. A unique source for a turbulent period of British history, Defoe's correspondence spans topics including the first age of party marked by Tory and Whig rivalry, religious tensions between the Church and Dissenters, the uncertainty of the monarchical succession, the birth of Great Britain and its establishment as a global empire, and the use of the press to mould public opinion. As well as an introduction discussing Defoe's epistolary habits and the distinctive features of his letters, headnotes and annotations explain each document's occasion, beginning in 1703 with Defoe hunted by the government for sedition, and ending in 1730 with him again in hiding, fleeing creditors months before his death. The volume is illustrated with examples of Defoe's letters, offering a fresh window onto Defoe's manuscript habits.
Download or read book From London to Land s End written by Daniel Defoe and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-25 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel Defoe (1660?-1731) was a prolific English writer who became one of the first Western writers to write novels and turn them into a sought after literary genre. During his life, Defoe wrote more than 500 books, pamphlets and journals on topics as wide ranging as politics, crime, religion, psychology, supernatural events, and even economics. While those are all impressive accomplishments, Defoe's name has lived on through Robinson Crusoe, one of the first and finest novels ever written. The book is written as a fictional autobiography of Robinson Crusoe, a castaway who spends nearly 30 years on a tropical island, where he encounters all kinds of danger and adventures. Published in the early 18th century, the novel may have been inspired by a real Scottish castaway, Alexander Selkirk, who lived for nearly 5 years on a Pacific Island. That island's name has since been changed to Robinson Crusoe Island. Robinson Crusoe was a stark departure from the typical literature of the day, which was still based on ancient mythology, legends, and history.
