   Extractions: hypertext by Jason A. Pierce Robert Louis Stevenson, from a woodcut in The Bookman The University of South Carolina marked the centenary of Robert Louis Stevenson's death in 1894 with a special exhibition illustrating his life and writing career. Drawing on the excellent Stevenson holdings in the University Libraries' Department of Rare Books and Special Collections and on additional items from the G. Ross Roy Collection of Scottish Literature , the original exhibit included most of Stevenson's first editions, the early magazine publication of Treasure Island and other adventure stories, and a full range of his travel writings, sensation fiction such as the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde , and later Scottish novels. This online version includes additional materials not included in the original exhibit as well as hypertext links to other sites of interest. The exhibit and accompanying symposium were funded in part by the South Carolina Humanities Commission, a state-level agency of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

   http://www.sc.edu/library/spcoll/britlit/rls/rls2.html
   
   Extractions: London, C. Kegan Paul, 1878. Stevenson's first regularly-published book is a graceful account of a canoe-trip he had made in 1876 in Belgium and Northern France with Sir Walter Grindlay Simpson (the "Cigarette" to Stevenson's "Arethusa"). The relative proportions of Pan and the canoers he is watching, in the engraved frontispiece by Walter Crane, indicate the self-consciously artful tone of the narrative that follows. The Vanity Fair reviewer commented, "the making of bricks without straw is weariness of the flesh...he may yet prove a brickmaker." Fanny Osbourne Just prior to leaving on his canoe trip, Stevenson met a married American woman and mother of three, Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne. Though ten years apart in age, the two became friends and, eventually, more. By 1877 the two had become romantically involved, though knowledge of this was limited to a close circle of friends. Marriage was discussed, but her existing marriage and his parents' tacit disapproval made for a difficult situation. This photograph, believed to have been taken in 1876, shows Fanny as she looked around the time she first met Stevenson. Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes

   Extractions: Island 6: Sensation and Collaboration Robert Louis Stevenson, 1887 John Singer Sargent's third portrait of Stevenson (and the second to survive) was commissioned by the Boston banker Charles Fairchild as a present for his wife. As with the previous two, this portrait shows Stevenson in the Skerryvore parlor, this time alone. Sargent's claim, made in a letter to Henry James in 1885, that Stevenson "seemed to me the most intense creature I had ever met," is evident in the author's luminous eyes and attenuated hands. This portrait currently hangs in Cincinnati's Taft Museum The Body Snatcher London, Longmans, Green, 1885. The stories in this volume originated as a series of tales Fanny told Louis during his illness in Hyères early in 1884. The thread connecting them exploited the contemporary fear of Irish Fenian terrorism. Though not originally intended for publication, the summer of 1884 saw the Stevensons in need of money, and The Dynamiter , which could be worked up quickly and with little strain upon Louis's fragile health, became the pot-boiler of the moment.

    Extractions: Robert Louis Stevenson was at the height of his powers when he died suddenly in Samoa in 1894. For a long period he was thought of mainly as the writer of adventure stories for children, but now there is growing recognition of his subtle and surprisingly modern explorations of dilemmas of character and action. Stevenson grew up in Edinburgh, and this profoundly shaped his writing. He was born on 13th November 1850 and from earliest childhood he was frequently ill, which influenced a fertile imagination. It was assumed that Stevenson would follow the profession of his father, Thomas Stevenson , a distinguished lighthouse and harbour engineer, and he studied engineering at Edinburgh University. However, in his twenty-first year he announced his intention of becoming a writer. He began with essays and travel writing and within a few years was recognised as a writer of great promise. His first commercially published book, An Inland voyage , (1878) described a canoe trip in Belgium and France. He followed this in 1879 with Edinburgh, picturesque notes

    Extractions: The second duty, far harder to define, is moral. There are a thousand different humours in the mind, and about each of them, when it is uppermost, some literature tends to be deposited. Is this to be allowed? Not certainly in every case, and yet perhaps in more than rigourists would fancy. It were to be desired that all literary work, and chiefly works of art, issued from sound, human, healthy, and potent impulses, whether grave or laughing, humorous, romantic, or religious. There is plenty to do, plenty to say, or to say over again, in the meantime. Any literary work which conveys faithful facts or pleasing impressions is a service to the public. It is even a service to be thankfully proud of having rendered. The slightest novels are a blessing to those in distress, not chloroform itself a greater. Our fine old sea-captain's life was justified when Carlyle soothed his mind with THE KING'S OWN or NEWTON FORSTER. To please is to serve; and so far from its being difficult to instruct while you amuse, it is difficult to do the one thoroughly without the other. Some part of the writer or his life will crop out in even a vapid book; and to read a novel that was conceived with any force is to multiply experience and to exercise the sympathies.

When a torrent sweeps a man against a boulder, you must expect him to scream, and you need not be surprised if the scream is sometimes a theory. Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail in good spirits. Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others.
