The Complete Personal Essays of Robert Louis Stevenson
Author: Trenton B. Olsen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429602294
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 535
Book Description
For all of Robert Louis Stevenson’s achievements in fiction, many of his contemporaries thought of him primarily as an essayist. His essays, known for their intellectual substance, emotional force, and stylistic vitality, were widely considered the best of their time. Despite the importance of Stevenson’s nonfiction, his personal essays—70 in total—have never been printed together in a single volume until now. Stevenson’s essays explore a range of topics from illness and evolution to marriage and dreams, and from literal and literary travel to the behavior of children and the character of dogs. Grappling with many of the cultural, ethical, and existential questions of his age, he resists dogma to draw fresh conclusions. Stevenson examines beggars and university students, immigrants and engineers, invalids and nurses, outlining his own colorful life story and unique approach to "the art of living" along the way. Whereas the most common and widely available versions of these texts were modified after Stevenson’s death, this volume gathers his personal essays, many of which have never appeared in any modern edition, in their authorized versions. These essays are still considered classic models of the form, and in this volume, the Editor presents them alongside an introduction and notes to assist in a rereading and reappreciation that is long overdue.

The Philosophy of life and the Contemporary Relevance of R.L. Stevensons essays
Author: Poorva Bhonde
Publisher: Walnut Publication
ISBN: 1954399391
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894), a Victorian essayist, novelist and poet is an ardent advocate of courage and optimism. His philosophy of life, as reflected in his highly popular essays included in ‘Virginibus Puerisque’, ‘Memories and Portraits’ and ‘Familiar Studies of Men and Books’ acts as a panacea for the evils of Modern Age characterized by materialism and overall pessimism. The study of Victorian English Literature is incomplete without studying Stevensons’s essays. They are highly anthologized all over the world. Hence the present book will be of immense help to the students, academicians and the lovers of literature who wish to appreciate Stevenson’s essays critically with the focus on his philosophy of life.
