	"Robinson Crusoe"
		John J. Richetti expanded the view of Crusoe as the typical Englishman, seeing him rather as the archetypal "personage of the last two hundred and fifty years of European consciousness." Obviously this view is Eurocentric and excludes non-Europeans.
		Coleridge saw Crusoe in universal terms, as "a representative of humanity in general; neither his intellectual nor his moral qualities set him above the middle degree of mankind...." He is "the universal representative, the person for whom every reader could substitute himself.
		This is the reason, I suggest, that Crusoe can be assimilated into diverse cultures, that the meanings assigned him change to reflect changes in a society, that he can be given conflicting meanings, and that he reaches into the private souls of individuals.

	Crusoe: Transmeta's Trump Card \| Linux Journal
		Crusoe is, to my knowledge, the only processor with its own special software (please contact me if you know of another).
		Crusoe's software knows "exactly" how much energy an application needs, and not only alters the clock frequency of the chip to correspond, but also alters the voltage requirements to correspond.
		Crusoe consumes 1 to 2 watts under heavy loads, and often subsists on 8 to 20 milliwatts when idle, altering power consumption on the fly.

	On "Crusoe in England"
		"Crusoe in England" retrieves those poems of childhood that seek to situate the child in her own skin and in society, and anticipates (though chronologically succeeding) the landscape poems of the marginal observer of the sea and its shore.
		Crusoe's perception refuses the consolations of romantic languages of the sublime and the picturesque.
		Crusoe's phrase "I wanted to propagate my kind" cannot be interpreted simply as an expression of the biological urge of a childless poet to have children.

	Robinson Crusoe
		Crusoe's travels begin when he goes to sea at a young age; quickly, he is captured and put into slavery in Portugal.
		Crusoe then leaves on a ship with a group of other 'entrepreneurs' to sail to Africa, where they hope to trade for slaves for their plantations.
		The way Crusoe's religion relates to issues like slavery (in the cases of Friday and Xury) and fellow human beings is a good place to begin disecting the novel.

		The morality is placed centrally in the book when Crusoe rejects the advice of his father to accept the happiness of the middle class life to which he was born.
		It is not until Crusoe literally recreates a primitive approximation of that middle class life for himself on his island that he is freed.
		Crusoe is also a story about the ability of mankind to master his surroundings through hard work, patience, and Christianity.

		Transmeta explained that the Crusoe chip understands that it is only needed for DVD decoding at the moment and thus tones its power utilization down to the minimal usage to decode DVD.
		The deep sleep function allows Crusoe to hibernate when devices are powered down and come back to life quickly when devices are powered back on, similar to the "sleep" mode of many notebooks today.
		Crusoe is the first piece of technology to come out of Transmeta, and the company claims that there will be more chip types or possibly other technology that uses the ideas behind the development of Crusoe.

	Variations of Robinson Crusoe
		that has battered and nearly drowned him, Robinson Crusoe manages to drag himself ashore; and looking back at the hostile sea, he is at first carried away by joy at his good luck in escaping the fate of his shipmates.
		Crusoe, too, is saved when the ship remains wedged among the rocks that had destroyed it -- for his tale, like Dante's, is also one of spiritual education and consequent spiritual deliverance.
		In this new situation "mere ingenuity," such as had saved Crusoe, is useless, and "As Crusoe made his clothes, so he no less,/ Must labour to invent his nakedness." But memories and imagination cannot prevail, and when he and Crusoe visit the shore, Friday follows the prints made by an unshod foot into the surf.

	Crusoe (1989) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-10)
		Very loosely based on "Robinson Crusoe", the story is switched to 1808 America at the beginning with Quinn as a cocky young slave trader who hires a boat to take him to Africa for more human booty.
		The ship founders on an idyllic unsettled island in a storm and Crusoe and the ship's dog (with a name out of a 50's sitcom) are the only survivors.
		Crusoe quickly learns to fend for himself and eventually acquires the companionship on an equally-snotty Friday with whom he experiences several life-affirming moments, all exquisitely shot by major cinematographer/minor director Caleb Deschanel.

	Amazon.co.uk: Robinson Crusoe (Oxford World's Classics): Books: Daniel Defoe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-10)
		Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe is often hailed as the first novel written in English; it has garnered appraisal in each century it has been around; and is one of the most widely translated works of fiction behind the Bible.
		He allows the retrospective voice of Crusoe to be both spatially and temporally free; lending his narrative voice weight, with its mastery of the material.
		The implied author, Crusoe, is writing this account of his adventures from after the event; it is for this reason that the novel’s tone seems divided.

	The CRUSOE Suite
		The CRUSOE databases could be useful when these resources are unavailable, or as a makeshift which would allow preliminary modelling efforts to proceed while a larger database is being constructed.
		Another interesting possibility is to use either the CRUSOE or the ORANI-G model to examine the effects of the same shock on a variety of different regions.
		However, since the notation used by CRUSOE is the same as that used by ORANI-G, the majority of the ORANI-G documentation (supplied in Microsoft Word format) applies to CRUSOE as well, although some sections will no longer be relevant.

	Robinson Crusoe Month
		February is Robinson Crusoe Month, named in honor of the anniversary of the rescue on February 1, 1709, of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor who had been put ashore in September 1704, on an uninhabited island at his own request after a quarrel with his captain.
		It isn't hard to see the attractions such a work had, and still has, for children--with their desire for privacy, their love of hideouts and their wish to organize and control their lives--especially when all this is told with Defoe's careful attention to the most minute details.
		The Crusoe story is one of unparalleled adventure in concert with the ingenuity and inventiveness needed to establish a semblance of domestic routine.

		The first edition of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, printed in London by William Taylor in 1719, is the two millionth volume to join the collection of the University of Miami Libraries.
		With its geographic focus in the Caribbean, Robinson Crusoe is a significant addition to the Library's outstanding cache of materials on the region.
		Perhaps, most importantly, both Crusoe and the Library remain true to themselves, dedicated to the search for excellence and fulfillment in a world that tests their resourcefulness each and every day.

		Reading from Crusoe's perspective gives the book most of its interest, as it enables you to see the way a slightly rebellious Englishman thought (or, at least, the way Defoe assumed a slightly rebellious Englishman thought) about issues like the Spanish conquest of America, the "savages," and the bare necessities of life.
		Crusoe is very self-centered throughout, which makes you wonder about whether his character is fit to function as a representative example of man left to the elements or not.
		Any close look at a character such as Crusoe would be lacking if it did not follow his spiritual transformation as well as his physical changes.
