Exploring the metamorphoses of the body as a crucial aspect of the Robinsonade's ideologies in the eighteenth century and beyond, Castaway Bodies sheds new light on this fascinating genre through a series of engaging focused readings.

This book offers a provocative analysis of the work of Nobel Laureate Olga Tokarczuk, situating her output in comparative contexts. The chapters making up the volume range from myth-critical focused readings, to interdisciplinary and intercultural perspectives, and read Tokarczuk's fiction alongside other arts and other authors.

This volume argues that throughout the century novelists from Daniel Defoe to Ann Radcliffe referred to the visual arts, recalling specific names or artworks, but also artistic styles and conventions, in an attempt to define the generic constitution of their fictions.
