摘要：

This article evaluates the numerous specifically named sums of money in Robinson Crusoe, Moll Flanders, and Roxana by approximating their present-day buying power and comparing them with historical prices and wages. This enterprise quickly demonstrates that the sums are enormous, surprisingly so. Long-standing critical belief that these novels represent the turn in fiction towards realism appears seriously misguided in the light of the economic particulars presented.
