Author: Daniel Defoe
 
 

Summary:

I am going to talk about the Complete English Tradesman, Daniel Defoe. This English novelist and libelist was born in London in 1660 and died in 1731.

As we can see, Defoe has lived in two centuries, the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Century. He said several times that the life biggest matter was earning money. But in spite of this thought he prefered writing, so make novels was also very important to him.

With this traveller novelist we have taken away our minds to exotic, remote and imagined places such as we can observe in The King of Pirates, Robinson Crusoe, or A Hymn to the Pillory.
