A century later, Defoe's Robinson Crusoe embodies a more favorable consideration of the individual, but only if one refuses to take seriously Defoe's statement that Crusoe's isolation is punishment for disobeying his father.

None of them marries or has lasting relations with women; rather, each has as his closest friend a male serva ...
