Outline of analysis of the personage’s behavior
How does the author feel about Robinson?
Throughout the novel, D. Defoe ironically notes that his hero is characterized by pride, an exaggerated idea of his capabilities. This was most clearly manifested in the episode about the construction of a Grand boat, when Robinson "was amused by his idea, without giving himself the trouble to calculate whether he had enough strength to cope with it." But the same megalomania is found in the original intention to build a pen for goats in a circle of two miles; excessively large and overloaded is a raft built by Robinson in one of the trips to the ship; his overly extended cave becomes accessible to predators and less secure; etc. Thus , despite the irony present, it can be concluded that the author is very sympathetic to a person who takes the trouble to do a lot and even complains about the constant lack of time.
Personal attitude of the reader
Robinson Crusoe lived on the island for 28 years. He won a victory over himself, over nature, overcame all the hardships that fate sent him. I admire the courage of the hero of the book "Life and amazing adventures of Robinson Crusoe", his calm and reasonable mind. I learn from him not to give up before the difficulties of life, not to give up under any circumstances. And much more.
What the book teaches?
First of all, of course, the ability to work. Robinson lived on a desert island for twenty-eight years, but he did not become a savage, did not lose the signs of a civilized man, and all this thanks to work. It is conscious creative activity that distinguishes man from the savage, thanks to her hero kept afloat and with dignity withstood all the tests.
In addition, there is no doubt that the example of Robinson shows how important it is to have patience, how to learn new things and to comprehend what has never been touched before. And the development of new skills and abilities gives rise to a man of prudence and common sense, so useful to the hero on a desert island.
Composition of the plot
The narrative structure of the novel Defoe "Robinson Crusoe" is made in the form of self-narration, decorated in the form of a combination of memoirs and diary. The points of view of the character and the author are identical, or rather, the point of view of the character is the only one, since the author of the text is completely abstracted. Spatially and temporally, the narrative combines a chronicle and a retrospective aspect.

The main purpose of the author was the most successful verification, that is, giving his works maximum reliability. Therefore, even in the "Preface of the editor" Defoe argued that "this story -only a strict statement of facts, there is no shadow of fiction."
One of the main features of Defoe's narrative manner is credibility, credibility. In this he was not original. In the interest in fact, not the fiction manifested a characteristic tendency of the age in which he lived Defoe. Closure within the reliable was the defining characteristic of adventurous and psychological novels. All the narration in the novel "Robinson Crusoe" is conducted from the first person, through the eyes of the hero, through his inner world. The author of the novel is completely removed. This technique not only increases the illusion of credibility, giving the novel the appearance of similarity with the document of the witness, but also serves as a purely psychological means of self-disclosure of the character.
If Cervantes, which is focused on Defoe builds his "don Quixote" in the form of a game with the reader, in which the misadventures of the unfortunate knight is described through the eyes of a third-party researcher, who learned about them from a book researcher, who in turn, heard about them from.. .etc., Defoe builds the game according to different rules: the rules of vsamdelishno. He does not refer to anyone, does not quote anyone, an eyewitness describes everything that happened himself.
It is this kind of narrative that allows and justifies the appearance in the text of many descriptions and errors. An eyewitness can not keep everything in mind and observe the logic of the whole follow. Netshitenzhe of the plot in this case is further proof of the truth described.
Genre features of the work Robinson Crusoe
The image of a person in "Robinson Crusoe" is therefore dual: it is either a toy of natural forces and blind fortune, or, conversely, "the blacksmith of his happiness." If we apply the genre typology of M. M. Bakhtin to the work of Defoe, then the presence of features of both the novel of the test and the novel of education is revealed in it. You can see how the alternate exit to the forefront of adventure or interest, on the contrary, the house-building effect on the degree of detail of the narrative. From this point of view, it is very characteristic to report the marriage of the hero – in just one sentence, and in it his wife dies (Chapter XX). This event marks just the prevalence of adventurous installation, when immediately reported on the undertaken new journey. Especially noticeable is the sharpness of the change in the nature of the narrative (from the pathos of house-building to adventure), when the Spaniards appear on the island, and then – the English ship, captured by the rebels, its reconquest, etc. In General, we can say that the adventure moment is adjacent (and argues) in the novel about Robinson Crusoe directly opposite. For example, the return from the island to England is also described in just one sentence (XIX Chapter). Just patter, given the adventurous finale of the novel, where further adventures have been reported as a subject of another, special, part of the history of Robinson.
