When Prince Oroonokos passion for the virtuous Imoinda arouses the jealousy of his grandfather, the lovers are cast into slavery and transported from Africa to the colony of Surinam. Oroonokos noble bearing soon wins the respect of his English captors, but his struggle for freedom brings about his destruction. Inspired by Aphra Behns visit to Surinam, Oroonoko reflects the authors romantic views of native peoples as being in the first state of innocence, before man knew how to sin. The novel also reveals Behns ambiguous attitude toward slavery: while she favored it as a means to strengthen Englands power, her powerful and moving work conveys its injustice and brutality.

評分拜內容所賜,陰差陽錯成為傳世經典
評分Aphra Behn刻畫的黑人王子Oroonoko實在太理想化又太戲劇化瞭,保持活脫脫的歐洲白人形象的優雅(讀書、打獵etc),同時又能掀起勞工革命(太悲痛瞭),最後殺死妻子要復仇那段不是很make sense. Chris
