Description
Critical interest in Robert Louis Stevenson has never been greater. New editions of his works are appearing, and three conferences were held in 2000 to celebrate his sesquicentennial birthday, attracting an international audience. This collection of essays reflects the scope of Stevenson's achievement and the range of current critical response. It covers a wide range of topics, including his literary theory, the significance of burial and reanimation in some of his works, and the use of Scottish and South Seas settings in his fiction. The book includes contributions on various aspects of Stevenson's life and work, from his travel writing to his most famous novel, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
