Robinson Crusoe tells the story of Robinson, a 19-year-old boy, who, to realize his dream of sailing, defied his parents' advice and abandoned his comfortable life, ultimately embarking on a journey of exploration. During a shipwreck, he was swept ashore to an uninhabited island, where he began a difficult and long-lasting life of isolation. Robinson was not intimidated by the hardships but dared to challenge nature and death. He built tents, fenced in areas, constructed a "fortress," made tools, grew crops, raised livestock, and fought against savages, creating miracles on his own in the wilderness. In the end, he returned to his long-lost hometown of London, England, ending his more than thirty years of solitary life. The novel vividly portrays Robinson's struggles on the deserted island, his unwavering determination to overcome difficulties, his self-sufficiency, and his relentless battle against the harsh environment, praising the admirable qualities of human wisdom and diligence. Robinson's character is, in fact, a representative of the advanced, adventurous, and pioneering bourgeoisie in 17th-century England.
