Depois de uma extensa e bem-sucedida carreira como mercador, o inglês Daniel Defoe dedicou-se à literatura e trouxe ao público da época um dos maiores clássicos da Literatura Universal: Robinson Crusoé. O romance conta a história do náufrago inglês que passou mais de trinta anos lutando pela sobrevivência em uma ilha no Caribe - envolvendo-se em aventuras e reflexões, e conquistando a amizade do nativo Sexta-Feira. Em versão integral, esta nova tradução de Bruno Gambarotto pode e deve ser relida a partir de polêmicas do século XXI: da reflexão sobre obras a respeito de naufrágios - como o filme Náufrago, estrelado por Tom Hanks - que atualiza o debate a respeito dos limites do empreendimento comercial, até a crítica do projeto mercantil de Robinson Crusoé, explícita na passagem pouco comentada do herói pelo Brasil, no início do livro, em que se torna senhor de engenho e traficante de pessoas escravizadas. Leitura obrigatória para o enriquecimento do repertório de leitores em formação.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Daniel Defoe

Daniel Foe — the nickname would only be changed by the author in 1695 to Defoe — (1660-1731), is considered by many to be the first English-language novelist. He was a merchant, economist, journalist and spy before writing his first novel, The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, at the age of sixty.
Having witnessed the Plague and the Great Fire of London as a child, he ended up becoming passionate about travel after getting to know countries such as France, Spain and the Netherlands in depth. With an extremely adventurous life, he was incarcerated for debts and fought for a brief time in the Duke of Monmouth's rebellion. A few years later he began to write political-satirical pamphlets that, again, would lead him to prison. Through the intervention of a Tory minister, he was eventually released and for eleven years he became a secret agent and political journalist for the Tories. He delighted throughout his life in the representation of various roles and disguises, using them to great effect as a spy, and wrote more than five hundred books, pamphlets, and journalistic articles covering topics such as politics, crime, religion, geography, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural. He died in the city of London in 1731, reportedly "a lethargy".
