My purpose in reading the book started with the criticism in one of Ali Shariati's works that it was aimed at legitimizing the colonialism of Europeans. I thought Robinson was a good person, but old Robinson was actually not that good. He was hinting at something. After reading a few articles about it on the internet, it became obligatory to read the book. It is interesting that it is a work that defends imperialism. The black man is a cannibal, he needs to be educated, and we, the Europeans (the so-called civilized society), have civilized the blacks. Daniel Defoe explains this master-slave relationship based on such logical reasons that we do not even think that it is inhumane while reading it.

You can read it and not have this thought. Let's assume that I read it with this thought, but the period in which the work was written parallels this.

Kafka's transformation into an insect is not just a mutation. It was telling about man's alienation from himself in an intellectual sense.
