Abstract
AbstractThis survey article introduces the main areas of research into the English‐language Robinsonade in the context of the Robinson Crusoe tercentenary of 2019. It identifies the major fields of scholarly investigation as generic and formal approaches, with attempts made at defining the Robinsonade, as well as readings from postcolonial, feminist and intermedial perspectives. The article also pays attention to the contribution of childhood and children's literature studies and game studies, and the most recent explorations in ecocriticism and post‐humanism. The wide panorama of research in the Robinsonade is testimony to the continuous relevance of this adaptable and protean form in various critical contexts.
