Similarity of Robinson crusoe and Gulliver travelTwo classics of world literature Robinson

Crusoe wrote by Daniel Defoe and Gulliver´s Travels wrote by Jonathan Swift have important places in the history of English novel. Swift had been Daniel Defoe´s main competitor in the field of journalism for twenty years, and it is obvious from Gulliver´s Travels that he had been influenced by Defoe, both in the adoption of fiction as a vehicle for his purpose, and in the use of a plausible, matter-of-fact realism

Crusoe, like Defoe himself, was so thoroughly the embodiment of the social and economic drives of the early eighteenth century. The concentration on the practical and the rational left little room for any real exploration of character. There is not any exploration of personal relationships: Crusoe´s attitude towards marriage is the reverse of romantic - in his typically practical view it was “neither to my advantage or dissatisfaction”, but nothing more. He uses more the practical sight than his feelings when he should deal with most of situations and also he shows inability of acknowledge everything different from himself.

Gulliver´s Travels is a work of fantasy lulled in the course of the first few pages into a mood of complete confidence, security and credulity. Gulliver finds himself, after a long sleep of exhaustion, the prisoner of tiny human beings who have fastened him securely to the ground. The brilliant precision of the language and imagery constitute a large part of the narrative spell. Swift´s purpose in writing Gulliver´s Travels was satirical and reformative, adopting new fictional techniques and producing as a consequence the prototype of the fable type of novel.
