Synopsis
Tarzan of the Apes is a 1914 novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. After an English nobleman’s infant son is orphaned in the African jungle, the child is adopted and raised by apes, taking the name Tarzan, meaning “White Skin.” As he grows, he must navigate a life shaped by his ape family while also being connected to his human heritage. His sense of identity becomes a central tension as his world shifts when a new group arrives, including Jane Porter, the first white woman he encounters. Through Tarzan’s experiences, the novel examines the pull between nature and heredity and the contrast between civilization and the wild.
