The novel recounts Robinson’s struggle to survive alone as well as his adventures among cannibals and with his friend and servant Friday. Robinson Crusoe was very popular in 1719 with six editions printed in the first four months. This led Daniel Defoe to writing sequels to the book such as The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe. The original book is popular in schools around the world. It has been adapted into comic books children’s books plays pantomimes and films. Since publication countless copies of Robinson Crusoe have been sold and it has been translated into many languages. It remains one of the most published novels in history.

丹尼尔·笛福(1660—1731),在18世纪英国四大著名小说家中,笛福名列首位(其余三位分别是乔纳森·斯威夫特、塞缪尔·理查逊和亨利·菲尔丁),被誉为“英国与欧洲小说之父”。 笛福生于伦敦一个油烛商家庭,年轻时是一位成功的商人。在经商的同时,他还从事政治活动,代表当时日益上升的资产阶级出版了大量政治性小册子,并因此被捕。笛福直到晚年才开始创作小说。创作《鲁宾逊漂流记》时,他已59岁了。此后,他又创作了《辛格顿船长》《杰克上校》《摩尔·弗兰德斯》等小说,这些小说对英国及欧洲小说的发展都起到了巨大的影响。
