The Consolidator: Memoirs of Sundry Transactions from the World in the Moon by Daniel Defoe Pdf

The Consolidator or, Memoirs of Sundry Transactions from the World in the Moon is a satirical novel that mixes fantasy with political and social satire. The narrator travels to the moon mostly to get a dispassionate and crushingly granular view of recent and contemporary British political history. The consolidator is a mean of transport that is used to get to the moon – a chariot with two feathered winged creatures, each of them representing the houses of parliament. Daniel Defoe (1660-1731), born Daniel Foe, was an English trader, writer, journalist, pamphleteer, and spy, most famous for his novel Robinson Crusoe. Defoe is noted for being one of the earliest proponents of the novel, as he helped to popularize the form in Britain with others such as Samuel Richardson, and is among the founders of the English novel. He was a prolific and versatile writer, producing more than five hundred books, pamphlets, and journals on various topics, including politics, crime, religion, marriage, psychology, and the supernatural.

The Consolidator by Daniel Defoe Pdf

In April 1705, when Defoe (1661-1731) published The Consolidator: Or, Memoirs of Sundrey Transactions from the World in the Moon: Translated from the Lunar Language by the Author of The True-Born Englishman, he was a little worried that he might end up in hiding or in jail again, whence earlier works and financial difficulties had led him. Within an imaginary voyage to the moon, he satirizes the intellectual and moral currents of the time, praises China's contribution to world knowledge tongue-in-cheek, presents a Whiggish version of the historical events of the previous 45 years, and offers his personal view of the circumstances that led to his late troubles. The significance of the edition is not explained. Full scholarly paraphernalia is provided. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
