Robinson Crusoe (I) (Spanish Edition)

After being captured and enslaved in Africa as a result of a shipwreck, Robinson Crusoe arrives on an uninhabited island near the mouth of the Orinoco River and faces the challenge of creating a new way of life, starting from scratch. Over time, and after seeing several groups of cannibals land on the island, he frees the one who was to be one of the victims, Friday, and thus finds company. Between the two, in addition to expanding the island's plantations, they managed to free some other victims, including several Spaniards who had also been shipwrecked. Taking as a starting point the real experiences of the Spanish sailor Pedro Serrano (16th century) and that of the Scotsman Alexander Selkirk (18th century), Daniel Defoe created an ambitious work that is not only a passionate adventure novel, but also a work that sharply poses various questions of a social, political and philosophical nature, which in turn have led to its being used as an example in the most diverse disciplines (economics, sociology, ethics, etc.).
