内容概要
《鲁滨逊漂流记》是18世纪英国著名作家笛福的代表作品,也是英国乃至整个欧洲文学史上第一部真正意义上的小说。三百多年来在世界各地读者中广泛流传,历久不衰。 该书以1708年一名苏格兰水手航海遇险,最后漂流到一个荒岛上,并且单独留居了四年才被救回这一真实故事作为素材,加工而成的。小说的主人公鲁滨逊出身于一个英国中产阶级家庭,一生志在遨游四海。一次在去非洲航海的途中遇到风暴,只身一人漂流到一个无人的荒岛上,开始了一段与世隔绝的生活。鲁滨逊凭着强韧的意志与不懈的努力,在荒岛上顽强地生存下来。经过了整整28个年头,才有一艘英国船路过该岛,鲁滨逊得以返回故乡。 笛福成功地塑造了一个理想的资产阶级所应具备的一切特征——勇敢、智慧、理性、勤劳、坚强,也告诉人们不论遇到何种困难,都要顽强地生存,上帝也许会抛弃你,但自己永远不要抛弃自己! 本书讲述了一位遇险的航海商人独自一人飘流到一座荒岛的故事。他克服种种意想不到的困难,靠自己掌握的科学知识和顽强意志,在岛上生活了28年,终于遇救返回故园。

章节摘录
Yet even in this voyage I had my misfortunes too; particularly,that I was continually sick, being thrown into a violent calenture by theexcessive heat of the climate; our principal trading being upon thecoast, from the latitude of fifteen degrees north even to the line itself. I was now set up for a Guinea trader; and my friend, to my greatmisfortune, dying soon after his arrival, I resolved to go the same voy-age again, and I embarked in the same vessel with one who was hismate in the former voyage and had now got the command of the ship.This was the unhappiest voyage that ever man made; for though I didnot carry quite 100 of my new-gained wealth, so that I had 200left, and which I lodged with my friends widow, who was very just tome, yet I fell into terrible misfortunes in this voyage; and the first wasthis, viz., our ship making her course towards the Canary Islands, orrather between those islands and the African shore, was surprised inthe gray of the morning by a Turkish rover of Sallee, who gave chase tous with all the sail she could make. We crowded also as much canvas asour yards would spread, or our masts carry, to have got clear; but find-ing the pirate gained upon us, and would certainly come up with us in afew hours, we prepared to fight; our ship having twelve guns, and therogue eighteen. About three in the afternoon he came up with us, andbringing to, by mistake, just athwart our quarter, instead of athwartour stem, as he intended, we brought eight of our guns to bear on thatside and poured in a broadside upon him, which made him sheer offagain, after returning our fire and pouring in also his small-shot fromnear 200 men which he had on board. However, we had not a mantouched, all our men keeping close. He prepared to attack us again,and we to defend ourselves; but laying us on board the next time uponour other quarter, he entered sixty men upon our decks, who immedi-ately fell to cutting and hacking the decks and rigging. We plied themwith small-shot, half-pikes, powder chests, and such like, and clearedour deck of them twice. However, to cut short this melancholy part ofour story, our ship being disabled, and three of our men killed andeight wounded, we were obliged to yield, and were carried all prisonersinto Sallee, a port belonging to the Moors.
