Oroonoko, the Rover and Other Works

When Prince Oroonoko's 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. Oroonoko's noble bearing soon wins the respect of his English captors, but his struggle for freedom brings about his destruction.

Cand pasiunea printului Oroonoko pentru virtuoasa Imoinda trezeste gelozia bunicului sau, indragostitii sunt aruncati in sclavie si transportati din Africa in colonia Surinam. Purtarea nobila a lui Oroonoko castiga in curand respectul rapitorilor sai englezi, dar lupta lui pentru libertate ii aduce distrugerea.
