"Marooned (Stranded)" is a term used to describe a situation where individuals are left isolated in an uninhabited place, often due to shipwrecks or accidents. This can occur on deserted islands, remote locations, or even in wilderness areas. The experience typically involves survival challenges, as those stranded must find food, water, and shelter while awaiting rescue. In literature and film, the theme of being marooned often explores human resilience and the struggle for survival. Notable examples include the novel "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe and the movie "Cast Away," featuring Tom Hanks. These stories highlight the psychological and physical challenges faced by those cut off from civilization.
