Originalhardcover. Condition: Wie neu. neue Ausgabe. 212 S. Ein neuwertiges Exemplar. - The book is a study of the eighteenth-century English robinsonade, also known as desert island or castaway narrative. It discusses the pre-history of the genre, the complex multi-level semantics of «Robinson Crusoe», its role in introducing a new mode of meaning formation combining the conventions of the travel narrative, Providence book, and spiritual autobiography, as well as its functioning as a genre model for later authors. Another important subject is the subsequent process of robinsonade s simplification by the gradual elimination of religious meanings and foregrounding the exciting adventures of the protagonists, turning it into a genre of children s literature. - Contents: Preliminaries: Texts and Criticism -- The Adventurous Parable: Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe -- Mimesis and Pleasurable Instruction: the Genre Pattern -- From Instruction to Entertainment: Functional and Structural Changes -- Civilisation vs. Nature: Cultural Significance of the Theme.
