Paper Summary:

The paper explores the theme and impact of colonialism as it is portrayed in J.M. Coetzee's "Foe" and Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe." The paper focuses on the theme of European colonialism.

From the Paper:

"Basically an extension of Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" J M Coetzee's "Foe" recounts the story of Susan Barton's experiences on a deserted island with Crusoe and Friday and her attempt to get Foe to write an account of these experiences. In Coetzee's story we see a transformation of colonialism and its ideology into one of existential meaninglessness in "Foe.""
