For decades, the collective myth of colonialism had been nurtured by the adventurous tales that were circulating in Britain since Defoe's Robinson Crusoe. It intensified again during the Age of Imperialism and stimulated its readers to imitate the heroic protagonist. The new Imperialism presented itself as
