Robinson
Crusoe
is
a
youth
of
about
eighteen
years
old
who
resides
in
Hull,
England.
Although
his
father
wishes
him
to
become
a
lawyer,
Crusoe
dreams
of
going
on
sea
voyages.
He
disregards
the
fact
that
his
two
older
brothers
are
gone
because
of
their
need
for
adventure.
His
father
cautions
that
a
middle-class
existence
is
the
most
stable.
Robinson
ignores
him.
When
his
parents
refuse
to
let
him
take
at
least
one
journey,
he
runs
away
with
a
friend
and
secures
free
passage
to
London.
Misfortune
begins
immediately,
in
the
form
of
rough
weather.
The
ship
is
forced
to
land
at
Yarmouth.
When
Crusoe's
friend
learns
the
circumstances
under
which
he
left
his
family,
he
becomes
angry
and
tells
him
that
he
should
have
never
come
to
the
sea.
They
part,
and
Crusoe
makes
his
way
to
London
via
land.
He
thinks
briefly
about
going
home,
but
cannot
stand
to
be
humiliated.
He
manages
to
find
another
voyage
headed
to
Guiana.
Once
there,
he
wants
to
become
a
trader.
On
the
way,
the
ship
is
attacked
by
Turkish
pirates,
who
bring
the
crew
and
passengers
into
the
Moorish
port
of
Sallee.
Robinson
is
made
a
slave.
For
two
years
he
plans
an
escape.
An
opportunity
is
presented
when
he
is
sent
out
with
two
Moorish
youths
to
go
fishing.
Crusoe
throws
one
overboard,
and
tells
the
other
one,
called
Xury,
that
he
may
stay
if
he
is
faithful.
They
anchor
on
what
appears
to
be
uninhabited
land.
Soon
they
see
that
black
people
live
there.
These
natives
are
very
friendly
to
Crusoe
and
Xury.
At
one
point,
the
two
see
a
Portuguese
ship
in
the
distance.
They
manage
to
paddle
after
it
and
get
the
attention
of
those
on
board.
The
captain
is
kind
and
says
he
will
take
them
aboard
for
free
and
bring
them
to
Brazil.
Robinson
goes
to
Brazil
and
leaves
Xury
with
the
captain.
The
captain
and
a
widow
in
England
are
Crusoe's
financial
guardians.
In
the
new
country,
Robinson
observes
that
much
wealth
comes
from
plantations.
He
resolves
to
buy
one
for
himself.
After
a
few
years,
he
has
some
partners,
and
they
are
all
doing
very
well
financially.
Crusoe
is
presented
with
a
new
pro
begin
a
trading
business.
These
men
want
to
trade
slaves,
and
they
want
Robinson
to
be
the
master
of
the
tradepost.
Although
he
knows
he
has
enough
money,
Crusoe
decides
to
make
the
voyage.
A
terrible
shipwreck
occurs
and
Robinson
is
the
only
survivor.
He
manages
to
make
it
to
the
shore
of
an
island.
Robinson
remains
on
the
island
for
twenty-seven
years.
He
is
able
to
take
many
provisions
from
the
ship.
In
that
time,
he
recreates
his
English
life,
building
homes,
necessities,
learning
how
to
cook,
raise
goats
and
crops.
He
is
at
first
very
miserable,
but
embraces
religion
as
a
balm
for
his
unhappiness.
He
is
able
to
convince
himself
that
he
lives
a
much
better
life
here
than
he
did
in
Europe--much
more
simple,
much
less
wicked.
He
comes
to
appreciate
his
sovereignty
over
the
entire
island.
One
time
he
tries
to
use
a
boat
to
explore
the
rest
of
the
island,
but
he
is
almost
swept
away,
and
does
not
make
the
attempt
again.
He
has
pets
whom
he
treats
as
subjects.
There
is
no
appearance
of
man
until
about
15
years
into
his
stay.
He
sees
a
footprint,
and
later
observes
cannibalistic
savages
eating
prisoners.
They
don't
live
on
the
island;
they
come
in
canoes
from
a
mainland
not
too
far
away.
Robinson
is
filled
with
outrage,
and
resolves
to
save
the
prisoners
the
next
time
these
savages
appear.
Some
years
later
they
return.
Using
his
guns,
Crusoe
scares
them
away
and
saves
a
young
savage
whom
he
names
Friday.
Friday
is
extremely
grateful
and
becomes
Robinson's
devoted
servant.
He
learns
some
English
and
takes
on
the
Christian
religion.
For
some
years
the
two
live
happily.
Then,
another
ship
of
savages
arrives
with
three
prisoners.
Together
Crusoe
and
Friday
are
able
to
save
two
of
them.
One
is
a
Spaniard;
the
other
is
Friday's
father.
Their
reunion
is
very
joyous.
Both
have
come
from
the
mainland
close
by.
After
a
few
months,
they
leave
to
bring
back
the
rest
of
the
Spaniard's
men.
Crusoe
is
happy
that
his
island
is
being
peopled.
Before
the
Spaniard
and
Friday's
father
can
return,
a
boat
of
European
men
comes
ashore.
There
are
three
prisoners.
While
most
of
the
men
are
exploring
the
island,
Crusoe
learns
from
one
that
he
is
the
captain
of
a
ship
whose
crew
mutinied.
Robinson
says
he
will
help
them
as
long
as
they
leave
the
authority
of
the
island
in
his
hands,
and
as
long
as
they
promise
to
take
Friday
and
himself
to
England
for
free.
The
agreement
is
made.
Together
this
little
army
manages
to
capture
the
rest
of
the
crew
and
retake
the
captain's
ship.
Friday
and
Robinson
are
taken
to
England.
Even
though
Crusoe
has
been
gone
thirty-five
years,
he
finds
that
his
plantations
have
done
well
and
he
is
very
wealthy.
He
gives
money
to
the
Portuguese
captain
and
the
widow
who
were
so
kind
to
him.
He
returns
to
the
English
countryside
and
settles
there,
marrying
and
having
three
children.
When
his
wife
dies,
he
once
more
goes
to
the
sea.

鲁滨逊漂流记（英文原名：Robinson Crusoe，又译作鲁宾逊漂流记，直译作鲁宾逊·克鲁索）是一本由丹尼尔·笛福59岁时所著的第一部小说，首次出版于1719年4月25日。这本小说被认为是第一本用英文以日记形式写成的小说，享有英国第一部现实主义长篇小说的头衔。《鲁宾逊漂流记》（Robinson Crusoe）旧译《鲁宾逊漂流记》，这部小说一问世就风靡英国，情节真实具体、亲切自然，真让人不忍释卷。小说从出版至今，已出了几百版，几乎译成了世界上所有的文字。据说，除了《圣经》之外，《鲁滨逊漂流记》是出版最多的一本书。该书被誉为英国文学史上的第一部长篇小说，成了世界文学宝库中一部不朽的名著。该书故事情节引人入胜，叙事语言通俗易懂，是一部雅俗共赏的好作品。我父亲原来指望我学法律，但是我却一心想去航海。有一天，我去赫尔，我的一位同伴正要坐他父亲的船到伦敦去，再没有什么比这更让我动心了，我必须跟他而去——这是1651年的8月，当时我十九岁。
船刚驶出海口，便碰到了可怕的风浪，使我感到全身说不出的难过，心里十分恐惧。我在痛苦的心情中发了誓，假如上帝在这次航行中留下我的命，我在登上陆地后，就一定要回到我慈爱的父母身边，从此一定听从他们的忠告办事。
可是第二天风停了，浪也歇了。太阳西沉，继之而来的是一个美丽可爱的黄昏，这时又喝了我的同伴酿的一碗甜酒，我就把这次航行后便回家的决心丢到九霄云外去了。我的这种习性给我的一生招来了巨大的不幸——任性的行动常给我带来灾难，可我总不肯在灾难来临的时刻乘机悔改。待到危险一过去，就忘掉了所鲁宾孙有的誓言，又不顾一切地投入了我的毫无名堂的生活。
在第一次狂风暴雨似的航行后，我又有过几次不同的冒险。在去非洲的几内亚做生意时，我被一艘土耳其的海盗船俘虏，被卖为奴隶，经过许多危险，我逃到了巴西，在那里独自经营一个甘蔗种植园，生活过得很顺心。可这时我却又成了诱惑的牺牲品。巴西因为人工不足，有几个种植园主知道我曾为做生意而到过非洲的一些奴隶市场口岸，他们竭力哄诱我作一次航行，到那一带去为他们的种植园买些黑奴回来。
听从坏主意，人就会倒霉。我们的船在南美洲北岸一个无名岛上触了礁，所有的水手及乘客全都淹死了，上帝保佑，只有我一个人被高高的海浪卷到了岸上，保住了一条命。当时我所有的只是一把刀、一只烟斗和一个盒子里装的一点儿烟草。待到我的体力恢复，可以走路了时，我就沿着海岸走去。使我大为高兴的是，我发现了淡水。喝了水后，又拿一小撮烟草放在嘴里解饿。我就在一棵树上栖身，舒舒服服地睡了一觉振作了精神，海上风平浪静。但最叫我高兴的是我看见了那艘船，待到潮水退下，看到它竟离海岸很近，我发现可以很方便地游到船上去。船上只剩下一只狗和两只猫，再没有别的生物。不过船上有大量的生活必需品，这样，我就干了起来。为了把那些东西运到这个岛的一个水湾里，我专门制造了一只木筏，还把岛上有淡水而且比较平坦的一块高地作了我的住所。面包、大米、大麦和小麦、干酪和羊肉干、糖、面粉、木板、圆木、绳子——所有这些，再加上几支滑膛枪、两支手枪、几支鸟枪、一把锤子，还有——那是最没有用的——三十六镑英币。所有这些东西我都一天又一天——在两次退潮之间一一从船上运到了岸上。到了第三十天夜里，我的搬运工作做完了，我躺下来时，虽然像平常一样害怕，但我心里对上帝也满怀感恩之情，因为我知道，我已为以后对付这个荒岛作好了准备而心里感到踏实了。
岛上有不少野果树，但这是我过了好久才发现的,我把它晒成葡萄干。岛上还有到处乱跑的山羊，但是，要不是我从船上取来了枪支弹药，它们对我又有何好处呢？因此，我有理由感谢仁慈的上帝，让船搁在海岸边，直至使我搬来了对我有用的一切东西。
要想确保我能在这个岛上生存下来，还有许多事情要做。我尽可能地相继办了几件我非办不可的事。但是我的努力并非总是交上好运道。我在第一次播下大麦和稻子的种子时，这些宝贵的存货就浪费了一半，原因是播种得不是时候。我辛辛苦苦花了几个月工夫，挖了几个地窖以备贮存淡水。花了四十二天时间，才把一棵大树砍劈成我的第一块长木板。我起劲地干了好几个星期，想制造一个捣小麦的石臼，最后却只好挖空了一大块木头。我足足花了五个月工夫，砍倒一棵大铁树，又劈又削，让它成了一只很像样的独木舟，以备用来逃离这个小岛，可结果却因为怎么也没法子使它下到海里去而不得不把它丢弃了。不过，每一桩失败的事，都教给了我以前不知道的一些知识。
至于自然环境，岛上有狂风暴雨，还有地震。我那时也对一切都适应了。我种植并收获了我的大麦和小麦；我采来野葡萄，把它们晒成了很有营养的葡萄干；我饲养温驯的山羊，然后杀了吃，又熏又腌的。由于食物这样多种多样，供应还算不差。如此过了十二个年头，其间，岛上除了我本人之外，我从来没见到过一个人迹。这样一直到了那重大的一天，我在沙滩上偶然发现了一个人的光脚印。
我当时好像挨了一个晴天霹雳。我侧耳倾听，回头四顾，可是什么也没听见，什么也没看见。我跑到海岸上，还下海去查看，可是总共就只有那么一个脚印！我惊吓到了极点，像一个被人跟踪追捕的人似地逃回到我的住处。一连三天三夜，我都不敢外出。
这是人怕人的最好说明！经过十二年的痛苦和苦干，十二年跟自然环境相抗争，竟然会因一个人的一只脚印而恐怖不安！但事情就是这样。经过观察，我了解到这是那块大陆上的那些野人吃人的一种习惯。他们把打仗时抓来的俘虏带到这个岛上我很少去的那个地方，杀死后大吃一顿。有一天早晨，我从望远镜里看见三十个野蛮人正在围着篝火跳舞。他们已煮食了一个俘虏，还有两个正准备放到火上去烤，这时我提着两支上了子弹的滑膛枪和那柄大刀往下朝他们跑了去，及时救下了他们来不及吃掉的一个俘虏。我把我救下的这个人起名为"星期五"，以纪念他是在星期五这一天获救的，他讲话的声音成了我在这个岛上二十五年来第一次听到的人声。他年轻，聪明，是一个较高级的部族的野蛮人，后来在我留在岛上的那段时间，他始终是我的个可靠的伙伴。在我教了他几句英语后，星期五跟我讲了那大陆上的事。我决定离开我的岛了。我们制造了一只船，这次不是在离海岸很远的地方造。正当我们差不多已准备驾船启航时，又有二十一个野蛮人乘着三只独木船，带了三个俘虏到这个岛上来开宴会了。其中一个俘虏是个白人，这可把我气坏了。我把两支鸟枪、四支滑膛枪、两支手枪都装上双倍弹药，给了星期五一把小斧头，还给他喝了好多甘蔗酒，我自己带上了大刀，我们冲下山去，把他们全杀死了，只逃走了四个野蛮人。
俘虏中有一个是星期五的父亲。那个白人是西班牙人，是我前几年看见的那艘在我的岛上触礁的船上的一个幸存者，当时我还从那艘船上取来了一千二百多枚金币，但对这些钱我毫不看重，因为它们并不比沙滩上的那些沙子更有价值。
我给了那个西班牙人和星期五的父亲枪支和食物，叫他们乘着我新造的船去把那艘西班牙船上遇难的水手们带到我的岛上来。正在等待他们回来时，有一艘英国船因水手闹事而在我的岛附近抛了锚。我帮那位船长夺回了他的船，跟他一起回到了英国。我们走时带走了两个也想回英国去的老实的水手，而让闹事闹得最凶的一些水手留在了岛上。后来，那些西班牙人回来了，都在岛上居留了下来。开始时他们双方争吵不和，但定居后，终于建立起了一个兴旺的殖民地，过了几年，我有幸又到那个岛上去过一次。
我离开那个岛时，已在岛上呆了二十八年两个月二十九天。我总以为我一到英国就会高兴不尽，没想到我在那里却成了一个异乡人。我的父母都已去世，真太令人遗憾了，要不我现在可以孝敬地奉养他们，因为我除了从那艘西班牙船上取来的一千二百个金币之外，还有两万英镑等待着我到一个诚实的朋友那儿去领取，这位朋友是一位葡萄牙船长，在我去干那项倒霉的差事之前，我委托他经营我在巴西的庄园。正是为了去干那差事，使我在岛上住了二十八年。我见他如此诚实，十分高兴，我决定每年付给他一百葡萄牙金币，并在他死后每年付给他儿子五十葡萄牙金币，作为他们终生的津贴。
我结了婚，生了三个孩子，我除了因为要到那个上面讲的我住过的岛上去看看，又作了一次航行之外，再没作漫游了。我住在这儿，为我不配得到的享受而心怀感激，决心现在就去作一切旅行中最长的旅行。如果说我学到了什么的话，那就是要认识退休生活的价值和祈祷在平静中过完我们的余日。我还能活多久？
[编辑本段]二、写作背景
亚力山大·赛尔柯克的经历给了笛福的灵感这部小说是笛福受当时一个真实故事的启发而创作的。1704年9月一名叫亚历山大·赛尔科克的苏格兰水手在海上与船长发生争吵，被船长遗弃在南美洲大西洋中的安·菲南德岛上，四年后当他被救回英国时已成了一个野人。赛尔科克在荒岛上并没有作出什么值得颂扬的英雄事迹，但笛福塑造的鲁宾逊完全是个新人。英国著名作家笛福以赛尔科克的传奇故事为蓝本，把自己多年来的海上经历和体验倾注在人物身上，并充分运用自己丰富的想象力进行文学加工，使“鲁宾逊”成了当时中小资产阶级心目中的英雄人物。是西方文学中第一个理想化的新兴资产者形象。他表现了强烈的资产阶级进取精神和启蒙意识。本书成书于1719年左右，在作者快年届60时创作了这部妙趣横生、雅俗共赏、老少皆宜的传记体小说，为自己博得了“英国和欧洲小说之父”的美誉。

............Robinson Crusoe feeling after reading
I read a Defoe's "of Robinson Crusoe. I am deeply attracted by the book, it lets me realize Robinson the surprising perseverance and indomitable spirit.
