Robinson Cruzoe i problem bohatera: opowieść obrazkowa Ajubela

This paper analyses the problem of ambiguity of the main character in Danie Defoe’s novel and the problem of the target reader’s ambiguity. The graphic version of Defoe’s novel, created by Alberto Morales Ajubel (2008) unveils this problem. It is also an interpretative challenge, which may be used in various ways in the school environment. The paper introduces some of these methods. Complicated relations between word and picture, which are introduced by graphic novels of such kind, are an important didactic aspect of Polish Language Education.
