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 starneste gelozia bunicului sau, cei doi indragostiti sunt aruncati in sclavie si deportati din Africa in colonia Surinam. Nobletea lui Oroonoko castiga curand respectul rapitorilor sai englezi, dar lupta sa pentru libertate duce la distrugerea sa.
