54. Swiss Family Robinson - The Novel
    SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON The Novel. The novel, today a children's classic,was written in 1813/1814 by Johann David Wyss (17431818).  
    http://kierenhutchison.de/swiss_novel.htm
    
    Extractions: The book was edited by Wyss' son, Johann Rudolf Wyss (1781-1830, author of the Swiss National Anthem). Wyss was inspired by "Robinson Crusoe" (1719) by Daniel Defoe (1660?-1731). "Robinson Crusoe" is considered the first true novel in English. "The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe" - as it was originally titled - is based on the tales of the Scottish sailor Alexander Selkirk (1676-1721) who was put ashore on his own request on the Juan Fernandez Islands. He remained there for over four years before he was rescued in February 1709. Later the islands were renamed in Alexander Selkirk Island and Robinson Crusoe Island. The islands are located at 80° longitude, between 30° and 40° latitude, and belong to Chile. In the novel "Swiss Family Robinson" the ship has settlers and their belongings on board therefore providing the family with everything they need to survive after being shipwrecked on a desert island. Wyss is making good use of poetic license, putting animal and plant life from all over the planet on the island, regardless of their original climatic environment. The Robinsons call the island New Switzerland and are marooned for 10 years before they are found by a ship. In the book the parents' first names are never mentioned, they are only referred to as father and mother. They have four sons, according to age: Fritz, Ernst, Jack and Franz. There are also several dogs over the years, one of them is called Bruno. (Robinson Crusoe also had a dog, that had no name, and a parrot called Poll.)

"Robinson Crusoe" gilt als der erste wahre Roman in englischer Sprache. "Das Leben und die seltsamen überraschenden Abenteuer des Robinson Crusoe" basiert auf den Erfahrungen des schottischen Seefahrers Alexander Selkirk (1676-1721), der auf eigenen Wunsch auf den Juan Fernandez Inseln ausgesetzt wurde und über vier Jahre dort verweilte, ehe er im Februar 1709 gerettet wurde. Später wurden die Inseln umbenannt in Alexander Selkirk Insel und Robinson Crusoe Insel. Die Inseln liegen am 80° Längengrad, zwischen dem 30° und 40° Breitengrad, und gehören heute zu Chile. Die Geschichte der "Schweizer Familie Robinson" ist schlichtweg phantastisch, wenn auch aus heutiger Sicht vielleicht etwas naiv. Dennoch ist sie amüsant und unterhaltsam.
