{"product_id":"robinson-crusoe-lieve-spaas-9781349136797","title":"Robinson Crusoe: Myths and Metamorphoses","description":"Robinson Crusoe explores Defoe's story, the legend it captured, the universal desire which underlies the myth and a range of modern re-writings which reveal a continued fascination with the problematic character of this narrative. Whether envisaged as an heroic rejection of the old world order, a piece of pre-colonialist propaganda or a tale raising archetypal problems of 'otherness' and 'inequality', the mythic value of Crusoe has become a pretext over many centuries for an examination of some of the fundamental problems of existence. This collection of essays examines, from a wide range of critical and philosophical perspectives, the cultural manifestations of Robinson Crusoe in different centuries, in different media, in different genres.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lieve Spaas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1349136794\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781349136797\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.78d","brand":"Lieve Spaas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45180177907967,"sku":"9781349136797","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7d427db9-9507-42cb-912a-2f83f7271f2a.jpg?v=1712897673","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/robinson-crusoe-lieve-spaas-9781349136797","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
