In Derek Wolcott's Crusoe;s Journal, we can see that the author is following multiple components of Post-Colonial theory; specifically, the strenuous relationship between the colonizer and the colonized. The speaker of the poem speaks for the colonized, satirizing the historically immoral "Christofer" -reference to Christopher Columbus- as a poster-child for how colonizers, notably European colonizers, praise a man of tyranny and greed. Further, Walcott says, "parroting our master's/ style and voice, we make his language ours" (Walcott lines 22 & 23). Here, Walcott is advocating for the Caribbean community to cease with their hegemonic mentality and refuse further dictation from the British colonizers. By doing so, the Caribbean people will be able to live a life free from this imperialistic era "that makes us objects, multiplies/ our natural loneliness." (Walcott lines 40 & 41). Walcott is stating that further unwarranted and unethical treatment by the British will inevitably cause them to become naturally lonely, just as Crusoe was while stranded on the Island in Defoe's novel.
