DANIEL DEFOE (1661 - 1731)

Daniel Defoe was born in 1661 in London. His father was a well-to-do butcher. Daniel entered into the same trade. He also tried his luck as a tile-maker, wool-merchant but failed everywhere because he was more interested in politics than in business. Defoe did some commercial travelling in Spain, France, Holland and Italy and took many business trips throughout large sections of England.

Defoe has written some interesting notes on the manners, customs and ways of life in the various European countries he visited. The year 1719 marked a new period in Defoe's literary career. At the age of

53 he published his "Robinson Crusoe" - the book on which his fame mainly rests to the present day.

The conspicuous feature of the book, which captures the interest of readers, is its portrayal of Crusoe's life on the island. He struggles hard against nature and moves his bend before his will.

In describing Robinson's life on the island, Defoe glorifies human labor. Labor saves Robinson from moral degradation and despair, and is a source of pride and happiness. Detached from human society Robinson Crusoe finds himself placed in a singular position by virtue of which he does not exploit anyone, nor is he himself exploited. He toils for the sake of subsistence, and the fruits of his labor are singularly

his own.
