| dc.description.abstract | J.M. Coetzee’s Foe is a radical revision of Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe. It dismantles allegorical and canonical myth of Robinson from different perspectives. For this respect, Crusoe, white Friday and Daniel Defoe are supplemented by Cruso, black Friday and Foe respectively. Susan Barton, a woman protagonist replaces Crusoe as the narrator. Likewise, the linear narration of Robinson myth has been supplemented by metafictional narration of present text Foe. | en_US |
