1 Did you know the original title of “Robinson Crusoe”?
2 Did you know that Defoe used a real life story for his book?
… (A) Robinson Crusoe is the main character of a famous novel by Daniel Defoe, an 18th century English writer. The book is known as “Robinson Crusoe”. But its original title is “The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, of York, Mariner: Who Lived Eight and Twenty Years, All Alone in an Un-inhabited Island on the Coast of America, Near the Mouth of the Great River of Oroonoque; Having Been Cast on Shore by Shipwreck, Wherein all the Men Perished but Himself. With an Account How He Was at Last as Strangely Delivered by Pirates.”
The title, as you can see, actually tells the story of Robinson Crusoe in short! The book was published in 1719.
… (B) The story of Robinson Crusoe is based on real facts. Alexander Selkirk, a shoemaker’s son from Scotland, went to sea in 1695. He was only 19 years old at that time. In 1704 his ship was damaged and he decided to get off and not sail any further. He landed on a desert island and the ship sailed away. Alexander had only his clothes, a gun, a few tools, tobacco and the Bible. He spent about five years on the island. In 1709 English seamen rescued him.
