Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe in the study of Crusoe’s Metaphysical Problem

This paper substitutes the Platonic concept of metaphysics into the story of Robinson Crusoe to study the problems of metamorphose and exuviation occurring in the virtual world. Substituting again the meanings of evolution and discovery in the terms of biology and astronomy into the novel, we newly recognize the event of fictional world that have not yet been studied. Atlantis, which Plato referred to in his dialogues, exists in the model. It is a kind of being of what is not. The 14 logical sentences that Plato created to explain the impossible things give an identity to events which do not exist in the real world. This paper analyzes Atlantis and Robinson Crusoe as metaphysical axioms that prove errors to solve such problems. Atlantis is a fictional place without having logic. To express an uncertain and imperfect world, we come to an episode to solve the problem in terms of entanglement and superposition of quantum mechanics. The self-evident survival of metaphysics and the interesting story of fiction are models of thought and representation. This paper does not annotate Plato’s model, but rather invigorates a world of metaphysics that is too intense. Furthermore, to prove Atlantis and Robinson Crusoe as problems of truth and falsehood, we reconsider the sounds of science and knowledge from different directions. Therefore, deductions, induction, requirements, and prerequisites only unfold in the world of metaphysics because of the lack of power of imagination.

Abstract

This paper substitutes the Platonic concept of metaphysics into the story of Robinson Crusoe to study the problems of metamorphose and exuviation occurring in the virtual world. Substituting again the meanings of evolution and discovery in the terms of biology and astronomy into the novel, we newly recognize the event of fictional world that have not yet been studied. Atlantis, which Plato referred to in his dialogues, exists in the model. It is a kind of being of what is not. The 14 logical sentences that Plato created to explain the impossible things give an identity to events which do not exist in the real world. This paper analyzes Atlantis and Robinson Crusoe as metaphysical axioms that prove errors to solve such problems. Atlantis is a fictional place without having logic. To express an uncertain and imperfect world, we come to an episode to solve the problem in terms of entanglement and superposition of quantum mechanics. The self-evident survival of metaphysics and the interesting story of fiction are models of thought and representation. This paper does not annotate Plato’s model, but rather invigorates a world of metaphysics that is too intense. Furthermore, to prove Atlantis and Robinson Crusoe as problems of truth and falsehood, we reconsider the sounds of science and knowledge from different directions. Therefore, deductions, induction, requirements, and prerequisites only unfold in the world of metaphysics because of the lack of power of imagination.
