I never heard that word before, and a quiz

I think it has too many letters for Scrabble, but it could come in handy anyway: "Robinsonade." I've also seen it spelled "Robinsonnade."

Which means a story inspired by Robinson Crusoe. Like Abel's Island. Or Swiss Family Robinson. Or Lord of the Flies (sorry, Apprentice).

How long do you think this term has been used?

a) Since 1834
b) Since 1995
c) Since 1731
d) Since 2001
