Question:
Who is the author of the novel ' Swiss Family Robinson ' ?
Answer:
Johann David Wyss
The Swiss Family Robinson (German: Der Schweizerische Robinson) is a novel by Johann David Wyss, first published in 1812, about a Swiss family of immigrants whose ship en route to Port Jackson, Australia, goes off course and is shipwrecked in the East Indies.
The Swiss Family Robinson, novel for children completed and edited by Johann Rudolf Wyss, published in German as Der schweizerische Robinson (1812–27). The original manuscript of the novel had been written by Wyss’s father, Johann David, a clergyman, for and with the aid of his four sons. After the initial publication of an incomplete version, which was translated into French (with additions) and English (also slightly altered), Johann Rudolf published a four-volume final version in 1827. The Swiss Family Robinson achieved worldwide popularity.
